👋🏽 Hola hola, !

It’s Friday, and we’re crawling toward the weekend—literally. 🐛 I can't believe August is gone, and how late today's newsletter is going out (busy day!). This week’s edition is a reminder that transformation takes time (and sometimes looks like a chubby caterpillar), that Latinos stay winning in global spaces, and that JuanGa will forever own a piece of our hearts. Let’s dive into this week's...

PICTURE: 📸

I took a picture of this plump little caterpillar inching across the edge of a sidewalk, looking like it had somewhere important to be. Nature really said: new cycle loading. 🐛💫

OPTIMISM: 💖

A quote inspired by the winding down of the San Diego Padres regular season:

“If you have an opportunity to make things better and you don’t, then you are wasting your time on Earth.”

— Roberto Clemente, Hall of Fame baseball player and humanitarian

COOL FIND: 🕵🏽‍♂️

🎤 Amor Eterno: JuanGa’s Story Comes to Netflix

Juan Gabriel gave us all the feels—now we get to see the man behind the music. The upcoming docuseries Juan Gabriel: I Must, I Can, I Will premieres October 30 on Netflix and features never-before-seen footage from the late icon’s personal archive, lovingly curated by filmmaker María José Cuevas. 👉🏽 Watch the trailer on Netflix and prepare your playlist and pañuelos.

HOMEWORK: 📝

Multilingual Picnic in the Park (or beach): The sun is back, so pack a picnic basket with a variety of multicultural snacks and treats, and head to a local park or beach for a leisurely picnic with friends or family.

OTHER STUFF: 📢

🎨 A Nica Font on a Global Stage

I know, I know—you’re tired of hearing about Taylor Swift (again 🙄), but this time there’s a Latino twist. The typeface on her new album cover? Designed by Edwin Moreira, a proud Nicaraguan graphic designer whose font “Gazzetta” is now blowing up worldwide. From Managua to the Met Gala mood board—pochos, we stay influencing. 👉🏽 Go show Edwin some love @emo_reira.

Whether you’re packing a picnic, updating your playlist, or side-eyeing that Swiftie font drama with pride—remember: the culture moves because we move it. See you next week, same-ish pocho time, same pocho channel. ✌🏽✨

Adios,

Tony U
