What a sick sick mind.

It seems to me that a Trump vote was a knee-jerk reaction to real or perceived emotional anxieties, largely fueled by disinformation from Russians and right-wing media. And you're absolutely right - it takes a sick mind to think that the things we used to find important - democracy, ethics, the rule of law; compassion, good governance - are still relevant. Better to have a blind, ignorant pig in the Oval Office, as long as he amuses us and confirms our prejudices.

What a sick sick mind.

Yes, that's precisely what I'm describing. It takes a mind vacant of morality, ethics, compassion, true patriotism and real intelligence to put such a person in charge of the nation. Somehow the USA surrendered to the Russians, the Nazis and the Confederacy all in one night. MAGA is a mental illness!

One can have a difference of opinion on a lot of matters, but not when you support racism, treason, bigotry, xenophobia, rape, and misogyny.

So true as if elections were held today, Poilievre would win and he is very similar in his policies to Trump...

Which part was scary? Genuinely want to know what is “happening.”
- stock market hits record high
- bitcoin hits all time high
- EU pledges to buy US gas not Russian gas
- Hamas calls to end war (and Qatar kicks out hamas)
- Putin will sell oil in US dollars

All sounds pretty optimistic, but we love Mexico as well.

The part about having a CRIMINAL, A RAPIST, A TRAITOR, A RACIST, A BIGOT, A XENOPHOBE, A PATHOLOGICAL LYING SOCIOPATHIC NARCISSIST in the White House. The USA used to be known for its decency, its moral values, its system of justice. It's now once again a pariah and the laughingstock of the world. The criminal belongs in jail, not in the Oval Office.

Do you really have no idea how much human suffering is coming? Women, gays and minorities are already being taunted and terrorized. Do you care?

Funny you mention the stock market. One of the first stocks to skyrocket this week was that of private prisons.

"We the People" have lost a nation so many sacrificed so much for to "We the Billionaires". Our forefathers, especially the Founders, would be ashamed.

All sounds pretty optimistic, but we love Mexico as well.

I’m more afraid right now of what is happening in the United States. Once again….long term rentals???

Or real estate?

Although Mexico does not have a specific “digital nomad” visa, it is possible to live and work as a digital nomad based on foreign assets and income.

Friday saw a return of the heat and humidity, the kind that sucks the energy out of you the longer you're out walking or working outdoors. If only it would rain and bring the temperature down. Rain is in the forecast for Saturday and the next few days, but there's no guarantee. The rainy season usually ends similarly to how it starts, with this hot and humid weather and forecasts that tease us with rain that doesn't show up. Keeping fingers crossed.

This Saturday at Playa Linda there's going to be a women's surfing competition. El Torneo de Surf Femenil "Zanca Girl" starting at 7:30 A.M. There will be categories for long board, short board and body board. Come and check out the local talent. This should be a lot of fun!

A few more tourists showed up, both national and international visitors. Playa Principal still had a large number of people enjoying the beach and the water as the sun was going down. Restaurant business along the downtown waterfront was a little better this Friday night than the previous night. Some lodging operators are nervous that maybe U.S. citizens are afraid to come.

Whales are returning, so now is a good time to book a charter with my friend Abel Cortéz and his friends at Zihuatanejo Ixtapa Charters or my friend Ramón Olea of the panga "Oleaje".

A huge laúd turtle nest was found the other day at Playa Blanca and its eggs recovered to be incubated in a safe place at the Campamento Tortuguero Ayotlcalli.
