Cómo ya es costumbre aquí iniciará el hilo de pendejadas y cosas épicas de mexicanos durante todo el mundial 2026🧵
Mexicano cae de una estructura por andar celebrando
You can tell a lot about a country by how it treats visitors.
When South Korea's team arrived in Guadalajara, Mexico this week for the World Cup, they were greeted with sombreros. Son Heung-min and the rest of the squad, received not just as visiting athletes but as guests of a country that has a soft spot for them.
This isn't new. In 2018, when South Korea's win over Germany saved Mexico from elimination, Mexicans poured into the streets chanting "Coreano hermano, ya eres mexicano." Korean brother, you are now Mexican.
Eight years later, the warmth is still there. Mexico has a particular gift for making visitors feel at home, not just hosted.
It's not a performance. It's just how Mexico does it.
If the academy was cool they’d nominate BACKROOMS for production design. It’s not often that the entire film’s setting is its own character that evokes such an uneasy feeling from its audience in its exploration.
insane final scenes of backrooms showing how everything real in the film exists as a memory through time in the liminal space. haunting idea that makes you even more unsure of what was real, and this peaks with the final shot of mary. is it her or not? isn’t that the point?

the knights should whore their grand master out for charity and make like one of those firefighter calendars full of shirtless oiled up varka to raise funds. just a suggestion
wow… after years of being told to “just lose weight” and getting body shamed over symptoms tied to insulin resistance, it feels validating to finally see the condition named in a way that actually reflects how debilitating it can be.
hoping this leads to better research lol 😅
