Municipalidad de San Román intensificará operativos contra comercio informal

La Subgerencia de Mercados y Plataformas Comerciales de la Municipalidad Provincial de San Román anunció una intensificación de operativos contra el comercio informal para el 2025, año del centenario de Juliaca. Jorge Luis Malma Limachi, subgerente del área, señaló que la falta de colaboración de los comerciantes es el principal obstáculo para el ordenamiento urbano.

«Hemos tenido una serie de dificultades, sobre todo presupuestales, en lo que respecta al ordenamiento. Vamos a darle más énfasis el próximo año 2025 para tener una asignación presupuestal que facilite el cumplimiento de nuestros objetivos», manifestó Malma durante una entrevista, donde además reveló que se mantendría el mismo presupuesto del 2024.

Los operativos se centrarán principalmente en el perímetro de mercados emblemáticos como San José, Las Mercedes y Tupamaro. Esta decisión surge tras una audiencia con representantes de mercados privados como el Metropolitano y el Mercado Mayorista, quienes exigen el desalojo de ambulantes del centro de la ciudad.

«Hemos notificado en distintas oportunidades y realizado perifoneo concientizando a los comerciantes sobre el grave riesgo que representa ocupar pistas y veredas con sus productos y toldos. Falta mucho en el tema de educación para alcanzar nuestros objetivos del Centenario: una ciudad ordenada, con comercio, pero ordenada», enfatizó el funcionario municipal.

Chapter 1: Where Fiction Becomes A Reality

She knows she is screwed when Doña Maribel broke the news to her that the last of the cempasuchiles were completely sold out in her shop. Making it five flower shops in the span of an hour that she walked to have fully run out of the bright orange flowers she needed for her ancestral altar that she and her abuela worked tirelessly on for the past few days. (marigolds, grandmother)

She wonders what to do next or perhaps where to go as she plays with the gravel beneath her shoes. Sure, she could walk another mile or so to another flower shop and try her luck there just as Doña Maribel suggested but she finds herself too tired to venture deeper in her small pueblo by herself. (town)

Even the walk back to her abuela’s was not something she looked forward to as of now. This was the time where she wished she had the ability to drive but alas she could not for even the streets of Mexico were more hectic and nerve wracking than back at the states. (grandmother’s)

She sighs in defeat. The cempasuchiles were the last thing on her abuela’s list of things she required for tonight’s first day of Dia de Los Muertos. The bright orange flowers illuminated the path of those who died, back into the land of the living and enjoy the offerings their family’s set up for them. (Day of the Dead)

Maybe for just tonight she could spare them.  

She sets her three mercado bags beside her as she sits down on a bench right next to a bus stop that could lead her directly to her abuela’s home. The smell of citrus of the lemon tree above her eases her disappointment and feels that this is the perfect spot to reread one of her favorite books. (shopping)

George R. R. Martin’s, Fire and Blood Vol. 1. She wondered what it was like to reside in a world of dragons (before they were all extinct), dire wolves from the North, red priestesses from Volantis, and mysterious yet powerful witches. To live inside the walls of the Red Keep and tour around the secret passageways and to fight for the rightful Queen of Westeros, Rhaenyra and the other members of the Blacks during the Dance of Dragons.  

Sadly, even if it was possible to venture deep into alternate fantasy universes. It all was pure fiction. Not real. Impossible. 

‘And so one-eyed Aemond the Kinslayer took up the iron-and-ruby crown of Aegon the Conqueror, “It looks better on me than it ever did on him,” the prince proclaimed.’

“Excuse me, do you happen to know when the bus is due to arrive?” She snaps her head up meeting the most beautiful and enchanting woman she’d ever seen. Eyes round and greener than the trees itself during spring. Hair long and black like ravens in the night sky. She was tall, taller than most of the women here with skin like porcelain that had not seen a day of sun, a rarity here in Mexico. 

It was her mischievous tight lipped smile that made her feel loss of words. Unknowingly, this mysterious woman was the first person who spoke to her in English, not Spanish.

“Umm… I- I’m sorry?” 

The green eyed woman smirked as if she knew the small effect she had on her. Gods she was beautiful. 

“The bus–” 

She shook her head out of her revere, coming to reality. “Oh, I’m not sure. Perhaps a few more minutes.” She informed, pulling her mercado bags closer to her side, allowing the green eyed woman to sit, not wanting to be rude. 

She murmurs a quick thank you as she sits exceedingly close to her, shoulder to shoulder, flesh to flesh with her. Jeez, talk about personal space! However, the woman doesn’t seem to care or acknowledge that she has enough space for her own person. A feeling of uncertainty rests below her gut, telling her to be vigilant around her presence.    

“How long have you waited?” She asks, breaking away the long silence between them. She almost shivers at the intensity hue of her eyes that bore right through her. 

“About ten to twelve minutes.” She replies, looking anywhere else but her. 

A satisfactory look sketched around the woman's youthful yet elderly face which she found odd. What could be so pleasing about the bus not arriving? The woman said nothing, only sitting rather straight, almost elegant in her simple long green dress. Though, in the back of her mind, she wondered if she felt hot underneath the heaviness of the velvet fabric. She sure as hell did.

“Wait, how did you know I spoke english?” She asked as the hairs on her arms stood up straight in some kind of chilling fear. 

The woman’s eyes lowered and centered on the object sitting up on her lap. “Your book gives it away.” She snickered softly, tilting her head reading the bold letters of her very worn book she got at the thrift store for just two dollars. “An interesting read.” The green eyed woman said whilst her face held no sincere fondness of it for someone who found it interesting. 

“You’ve read this before?” She asked curiously, little taken back, that she finally found someone else who read Fire and Blood Vol 1. Or anything by George R. R. Martin. 

“Yes, almost like I've lived through it” 

She opens her mouth to speak but the green eyed woman beats her to it. “I don’t mean to pry but where are you headed?” The smile falls off her face as she remembers the warning of stranger danger she learned as a kid. 

The woman must have noticed the dubious look upon her face as she threw her head back in a laugh. “I ask because it seems a storm is coming our way. And it looks like an angry one.” 

Sure enough, as she looked up the sky had turned into a deep gray with heavy clouds ready to pour any minute. Well this wasn’t forecasted in the noticias this morning, otherwise, she’d carry an umbrella. Or better yet, she wouldn’t have walked all this way if a storm was brewing. (news) 

“My cottage is not very far from here,” the green eyed woman revealed, standing up from the bench, overlooking the seriousness of the clouds. “It is just around the corner. Would you like to come?” 

She wanted to say no, that she was better off walking an hour back to her abuela’s house, even if it meant that she’d catch a cold in the pouring rain with blisters all over her feet. Besides, she did not know anything about this woman. Every bit of her mind screamed stranger danger! Don’t go!

But as she glanced between the heavy clouds and the green eyed woman with her hand extended out, all that doubt and worriment went away. 

“I don’t even know your name,” she pointed out. If all goes bad, at least she had a name to tell the authorities.

“My name is Alyssandra Riveras.” The green eyed woman smiled, bowing at the waist. 

Though still somewhat skeptical, she walks alongside Alyssandra to her cottage. She makes small mental notes in her head, counting the red stop signs, right and left turns and any other landmarks of important significance. 

She was almost positive she could point her way back home. It did not help that five minutes into their journey, it started harshly pouring out of nowhere like a bucket of water had been poured all over, blanketing her vision. 

Alyssandra’s cottage had sat on the outskirts of the pueblo, isolated from all civilization, hidden around tall and green pine trees. A faint voice in the back of her head screamed to run and never look back. She ignored it.

From a close distance, she was able to distinguish a small window with overgrown vines and branches wrapped around the perimeter of the cottage. Bones, bells, and crystal windchimes hung from the roof and windows, mostly likely put up for some kind of spiritual protection. 

She was no stranger to the craft. Although raised catholic, both her mama and abuela had hung an old broom above their doorway to keep away unwanted guests and negative energies as well as pinning the mal de ojo sigil around the walls for the look of evil and envy against their family. (evil eye)

“Cempasuchiles,” she murmured in awe when Alyssandra’s small garden came into view. It was the most of the orange flowers she had ever seen, all bright and lively and huddled together. 

“When the storm is over, you can grab as many as you’d like,” Alyssandra offered, peering over her shoulder, unlocking the door to her cottage. She nods following her inside whilst giving a grateful smile. 

The interior of the cottage was small, meant only for one person to take residence. The same size as what a studio apartment would be back in the states.

In no way was the inside minimal, in fact it was the opposite. Almost all of the walls were covered with shelves with small trinkets adorning inside such as little statues, crystals, herbs and other supplies. 

In the center of the room lay a huge stone like table, old and antique bearing the resemblance of something medieval. And something about it, sent shivers down her spine along with the same faint voice, telling her to run. 

She ignored it, again. 

“Give me your belongings, and change into this,” Alyssandra says, tossing a strappy white chemise. She exchanges her poor-soaked mercado bags that contained pan de muerto, churros, and tamales for her ancestral ofrenda. (bread of the dead, offering)

She turns around to protect her modesty, seeing as there was no other room to change nor did Alyssandra point her to the bathroom, so she lifts the drenched garment over her head and sheds away the last clothing she had on her body, leaving her completely bare in her birthday suit. 

She couldn’t help but to feel Alyssandra’s eyes watching her very intently, examining every inch of her body as if it met her standards or so. She knows she should use her hands to cover up and give Alyssandra a piece of her mind, or better yet introduce her to a knuckle and hand sandwich for the way she was looking too closely.  

Yet her body feels frozen, unable to move under the green eyed woman’s gaze. 

“Would you like some tea to keep you warm?” Alyssandra asked, moseying to the kitchen. 

She blinks, whatever paralyzing feeling she had dispelled away. “Um, yes thank you.” Alyssandra nodded, pulling what looked to be a kettle on the stove. Meanwhile, she slipped on the white chemise in a hurry to not feel as exposed anymore. 

She takes the time to analyze the rest of Alyssandra’s cottage as she hears the droplets of rain hit the rooftop harder and the sound metal being filled with water. Various of the same purple flower plants were placed near the entrance, she notes to herself that these couldn’t possibly be lavender but another species or something within the same family. 

A small cot laid in the corner close by the hearth, with multiple open ancient books and scrolls spread on top of the bedspread. She almost wants to look through the pages and read Alyssandra’s interests but she doubts she could as she observes the handwriting is unreadable from where she stood. 

She walks forward to where the hearth is, feeling slightly warmer as something immediately catches her eye. Above the mantle, hung on the wall was a medium sized portrait of a small boy, appearing no more than three years old. He stood straight, almost regally with his hands behind his back. His face held no gentleness or warmth like a child should have. 

Gods forgive her, but the child looked cruel like the gueritos who bullied her in elementary school when she was just trying to make new friends. (white boys) 

Though, for an evil looking child, he sure was beautiful. The most striking thing about him was his set of eyes. Wide with his left eye a dark violet and his right a dark green similarly to Alyssandra’s. His hair was straight and cut short right below his ears. She looked closer at the portrait, thinking if her eyes deceived her as she noticed the peculiar color of the boy’s hair. 

Silver. 

Curiosity takes the better of her as she asks, “Is that your son?” 

Alyssandra turns, holding two mugs of steaming tea. “Yes, that’s my beautiful little boy,” She places both glasses on the stoned table before she sits adjacent to her. It doesn’t go unnoticed by her the sad look on Alyssandra’s eyes. “He looks like you,” she points out though it’s somewhat of a lie in hopes to lift up Alyssandra’s spirits.

Alyssandra throws her head back in a chortle, “For all my hard work and labor, I had hoped he looked like me but nature loves to play its cruel jokes. He is a replica of his bastard father.” The thought of her son’s father left a sour and disgusting taste in Alyssandra’s mouth. 

Alyssandra focused her attention back to her, “What about you?” She asked, sitting rather too straight. 

“Do you mean if I have kids? Gods, no.” 

Alyssandra smirked, “I take it you don’t like the idea of children. I did not either but after years of solitude, I changed my mind. I had other children before my son, but all of them died before they were due. You, however, are still young. Your mind can still change.” 

She shifted in her seat anxiously, sipping the odd taste of the herbal tea Alyssandra provided. It wasn’t like she did not like children. She respected children and found them quite cute with their little tiny hands and feet and infectious laughs. But besides the point of appearance, children were a tremendous amount of responsibility that she found herself not ready for.

Not now. Not ever. 

She could barely handle taking care of herself. Much less care and provide for a child for eighteen years or so. 

“I don’t—” 

“Oh but you will,” Alyssandra fired back without so much as blinking an eye. 

She grimaced, knowing where this conversation was heading. And it was about to be a not so pretty one. She glanced at the window by the door, the rain was still heavy if not more.

“I thank you for giving me shelter. But I really must go. I was only just supposed to be out for some groceries and my abuela is probably wondering where I am.” Polite and respectful enough just as her mama taught her.

She grabbed her belongings that were hanging by the fire and stuffed them inside her mercado bag. Her hand was on the cusp of prying the door open when Alyssandra rushed to her side, wrapping her hand around her wrist. 

“Wait. Please don’t go.” Alyssandra pleaded, “It’s just that you remind me much about myself. I didn't mean to cause offense, I’m sorry.” 

Run. Say no and run now, While you still can…

There it was again that same paralyzing feeling closing in on her feet, preventing her to move. It was strange like a shield gluing both her legs down. 

She nodded, murmuring ‘fine’ under her breath as Alyssandra slowly led her back to the woven chair with such gentleness as a porcelain doll. “I still need to call my abuela, so she can know I’m alright.” 

Alyssandra twisted her face in a wince, “I’m afraid we’re too far out for any signals to catch a telephone call.” She held back the overweening snicker to herself, it was why Alyssandra chose her cottage to be settled this far out in this very modernized realm; so no one could find her. 

Alyssandra wasn’t lying. No matter how hard she hit her Iphone against her palm or moved it around, there had not been a single signal bar glowing. She wondered if her abuela had started to grow worried and perhaps began to search for her. She hoped she didn’t and that her cousins kept her preoccupied with the rest of the decorations to notice the duration of how long she’d been out. She also wondered if they were still going to the cementerio, to clean and decorate the graves of their loved ones but with the amount of thunder and rain, she’d doubt it was still on the agenda. (cemetery)

Alyssandra prepared some more tea as the fire gradually faltered down. This one had a different taste than the previous one with tiny purple petals floating around. Alyssandra watched very intently as she sipped every last drop while she scarcely touched her own mug.

The green eyed woman began asking her multiple personal questions, mostly about where she was originally from (due to the fact that her vocabulary deemed to be more vehement in English than Spanish), her family, and if she had any siblings. She had answered them all. Letting her know that she was just visiting from the states to celebrate Dia de Los Muertos with her family she had not seen since the death of her sweet abuelo. (grandfather)

Alyssandra’s eyes glimmered even more when she explained how strangely, her very stern and overprotective mama had suddenly let her travel by herself to a country she had never been to in years since she was small. Her mama preferred her to be where she could keep a close eye on her because ‘uno nunca sabe’ especially if you’re a woman. (one never knows)

It was odd, alright. Especially when her mama gave her money that she didn’t have, and enthusiastically wished her good fortune on her travels. Yup odd…

But not to Alyssandra.

Alyssandra sat down after cleaning both mugs ready to ask the hard hitting questions she’d been warming her up to. “Have you ever been with a man?” Her eyes widened before breaking rounds of deep laughter that made the sides of her ribs ache and cramp. 

However, there wasn’t an ounce of amusement displayed on Alyssandra’s face, but rather annoyance. What was so funny? It was a simple and uncomplicated question that meant no harm. At least not to her. He couldn’t harm her any more here. Alyssandra guessed perhaps it was the side effect of the tea making her humoristic. 

“No,” She replied, wiping the humoristic tears at the corner of her eyes. “The opportunity has never presented itself?” Alyssandra asked.

All the humor that previously lingered had gone swiftly away, realizing that Alyssandra was indeed asking something so personal to her. “No,” She shook her head, feeling her face hot and red. “People don’t look at me as someone they want to be with. They’d rather be with someone exciting, adventurous, and outing. And I’m neither of those things. I’m a homebody who’s idea of fun and adventure is living through fictional books.” She answered truthfully, too truthfully. 

Alyssandra watched her face transform into a deeper shade of red. “What is it?” She questioned, taking a hold of her hand, taking in the role of someone empathetic. 

“I want my first time to be special. Like the fairytales I grew up reading about with the grand Prince sweeping the young maiden off her feet and taking her to his castle…” The way her eyes reflected small flashes of light made Alyssandra almost feel guilty for her true intentions once the repercussions of the tea ran out. 

She remembers when she too wished for a dashing knight in shining armor to take her away, far away from the shit she had been through; the pain, the suffering, and the poverty. All of it. As Alyssandra grew well into her womanhood, she realized there was no knight coming to save her. Instead, there was a selfish Prince who spared her for his desires and her many talents beyond the acts of the flesh.  

But Alyssandra needed her to go. She needed that piece that was stolen from her. She didn’t want the risk of going back and facing him again and repeating through the hell and agony he put her through. So sending her for it seemed like the better alternative. 

“I know you probably think it sounds stupid–” She stammered, her face still beet red. 

“I don’t think it sounds stupid,” Alyssandra softly smiled, giving her hand a light squeeze. Judging by the serene look upon her face, it was a good lie that she seemed to believe. 

She smiled. Finally, someone who didn’t think of the idea of waiting for the right person was silly and unrealistic. 

Her smile deterred, sensing something trickle down her nose, dropping against the skin of her hand. 

Blood. Her blood. 

Run! 

“Alyssandra?” She whispered, puzzled at the sight of more blood spilling out of her nose. Every strand of hair in her arms stood, sensing a new type of alertness course right through her. She glanced at a very blurred Alyssandra with what looked to be a smirk written on her face. 

“W-What’s happening?” She stood from the chair, but that soon turned out to be a bad idea as her knees gave out, sending her straight to the stoned cold floor. She glanced up, watching as Alyssandra sauntered in front of her, and as much as she wanted to crawl away her body was glued to the floor. 

“Look,” Alyssandra said, crouching down at her level before she took her in her arms like a newborn baby, weighing little to nothing. “We don’t have much time. When you wake up, I need you to retrieve something of mine…” 

She felt her back collide on top of the stoned table, “What was in that tea?” She questioned but Alyssandra was quick to shush her. “It doesn’t matter now. You drank it all willingly.” There was no argument there. 

Alyssandra pulled out a jar with overflowing cempasuchil petals inside and circled the petals around her. Almost like a ritualistic circle she used to watch the brujas next door do. (witches)

“You need not to be afraid. You will not be harmed as long as you do what I say. Exactly as I say.” She gulped, nodding seeing as she had no other choice. “Bruja.” She spat but Alysssandra only chuckled, “I’ve been called much worse, little dove.” (witch)

Through the corner of her eye, she saw Alyssandra holding out a small knife. “I am in need of a sapphire. It was stolen from me many years ago. It is one of a kind, which is why when you see it you’ll know it is mine.” 

She momentarily shut her eyes as the dark haired woman rapidly cut the middle of her palm spewing her blood on top of the petals. “Once you’re successful, you’ll come back here with the sapphire and gather some of my materials. The marigold petals with your blood coating them; The blood of whom you took the sapphire from and lastly you’ll lay on top of my precious table here to be transported back.” 

There was an evil smile on her lips that she desperately wanted to punch it off. “And if I don’t get the sapphire?” She questioned. 

Alyssandra combed away her unruly braided hair, “Then I won’t bring you back and you’ll be stuck there forever.” 

Fuck. 

“Stuck? Stuck where? Where am I going?” 

Alyssandra clicked her tongue, “A place where fairy tales do not exist, my little dove.” If she wanted a Prince to sweep her off her feet. Alys would gladly give her one. 

She attempted to wiggle herself out of this pendeja’s spell but whatever Alyssandra mixed in the tea it was compelling her body to still and her eyes to slowly falter shut in a peaceful sleep. (dumbass) 

“However I should warn you, this spell is only valid until tomorrow. Until Dia de Los Muertos is over and even if you do achieve in retrieving the sapphire but it is after November second, you'll be permanently trapped with him.”

Who will direct your DreamWorks Puyo films?

I don't know most directors so I looked up some directors of good movies in DreamWorks:

Joel Crawford

Januel Mercado

Jennifer Yuh Nelson

Peter Ramsey

Pierre Perifel

Sequels even have different directors from other entries! I guess thats why they feel different

Sometimes the original creators help direct so I'd add

Kazunari Yonemitsu (creator of Madou Monogatari)

Park Myeong-chan (writer of Puyo Puyo Fever)

I'd include the writer of Puyo Puyo 7 aswell. But I can find very little information on the writers of any of these games

Hey everyone! Long time no update

A LOT has happened since the last update. Back on March 6th, Shorty was admitted to the hospital, taken by ambulance. He had been passed out for several days on the floor unable to move. Lungs and limbs fulled with fluid. Fast forward to now, May 18, 2024, after about a month in the hospital and another month in physical therapy, he is able to walk again on his own! and the swelling in his legs has gone down significantly. But that’s not where the update ends. Because there’s still a lot we need to get set in place. 
He was able to get all of that much needed medical attention because we finally got him set up with a GOOD health insurance policy and were able to go to the Social Security Administration and set up his direct deposit to a bank that only him and I have access to. Everything seemed to be falling in place, but then he stopped receiving his social security deposit. He received a letter in the mail claiming that the direct deposit information we had just went and got set up again, had been changed on the 3rd of May, about 2 weeks ago. Neither he nor I understand why he would be getting a letter from the SSA like this, since we had the direct deposit set up to a new bank in February, that only he and I have access to. I’m thinking identity theft or something?

I’m not sure but, now that he is out of rehab, he is back at a motel. We’ve been asking around Davenport if anyone is looking for a potential roommate and recently just visited the house of a very kind gentleman renting out a room for $700 a month. Super ideal if we can get the situation with his Social Security deposit figured out (motels are way too pricey, even the crappy ones!).

The problem is, I do not have a car, though I am able to use my mother’s on Friday and the weekends when she is not at work, I am sort of at my limit with what I am able to do to help anymore. I had to leave my job due to multiple health issues, and though I have applied to many different jobs at this point, actually going in to each place and asking in person, I am having no luck, especially with no car, and only a bike with my declining health. I’m just not sure what to do. I am remaining hopeful.

Before we learned about the new situation with the Social Security Administration, Shorty had very generously offered me $500 to go toward the van I was trying to get. Not sure how to thank him enough for that. It’s now in my savings and I am going to keep trying to make and sell art and do odd jobs until I hear a response from any of the applications. Fingers crossed.

if yall wanna help me out i still have my patreon and kofi and a bunch of prints available. just lmk

"EXCLUSIÓN LABORAL EN LAS MUJERES"

Para entrar un poco en contexto, la exclusión laboral en las mujeres se relaciona a que las mujeres deben enfrentarse a barreras sistemáticas y persistentes para que así puedan acceder, participar y mantenerse en el mercado laboral a la misma par de condiciones con los varones.

Dicho tema no es un problema local, regional o nacional, esto es un problema GLOBAL, que persiste desde tiempos atras. Tradicionalmente, las mujeres han sido relegadas a roles domésticos ante ello se les ah negado el acceso a la educación y a la formación profesional. Esta situación ha contribuido a la segregación ocupacional, donde las mujeres tienden a concentrarse en sectores con menor remuneración y menor posibilidad de ascenso.

media.istockphoto.com

Diversos factores contribuyen a la desigualda de género:

Las expectativas sociales sobre los roles de hombres y mujeres influyen en las elecciones profesionales y las oportunidades laborales.

Las mujeres suelen asumir la mayor parte del trabajo doméstico y el cuidado de los hijos, lo que limita su tiempo y energía para dedicarse a la vida profesional.

Las mujeres aún enfrentan discriminación en el ámbito laboral, tanto en el acceso al empleo como en la promoción. Esto puede incluir sesgos inconscientes en los procesos de selección y hostigamiento sexual.

La ausencia de políticas públicas que promuevan la igualdad de género en el ámbito laboral dificulta la eliminación de las barreras que enfrentan las mujeres.

Ahora nos explayamos un poco mas a lo legal, resaltando las siguientes leyes:

Ley N° 28983 (igualdad de oportunidades entre mujeres y hombre)

Aplicación de la ley N° 28983:

Establecer el marco normativo institucional y de políticas públicas, en el ámbito nacional regional y local, para garantizar a mujeres y hombres el ejercicio de igualdad, libre desarrollo, autonomía, bienestar, impidiendo la discriminación tanto pública como privada, desarrollando la igualdad.

Ley N° 30709 (prohíbe la discriminación remunerativa entre hombres y mujeres)

Aplicación de la ley N° 30709:

Dispone la determinación de categorías funciones remuneraciones permitiendo la ejecución del principio de igualdad, en concordancia por igual remuneración por trabajo de igual valor.

A pesar de tener estas leyes que dicen "establecer una igualdad equitativa", en la actualidad no se ejecutan en la sociedad al 100%, ya que sigue existiendo la exclusión y más hacia las mujeres.

elmontonero.pe

Después de entrar en un poco de contexto en este tema, les presentare unos argumentos que nos lleva a la concientización para que ayudemos entre todos a que ya no exista la exclusión ante las mujeres:

Alta informalidad laboral

En 2020, el 77,3% de las mujeres que trabajaban en Perú lo hacían en el sector informal. Esto indica una falta de acceso a empleos formales y seguros, lo que contribuye a la exclusión laboral.

Distribución desigual en el mercado laboral

Aunque ha aumentado la participación de mujeres en el mercado laboral, esta no se ha traducido en igualdad de oportunidades. Las mujeres tienden a concentrarse en actividades de baja productividad.

Segmentación en la ocupación

Las mujeres son más propensas a trabajar en ocupaciones con menor estabilidad y remuneración, lo que limita su acceso a beneficios sociales y legales que suelen estar disponibles para trabajos formales.

Educación y habilidades

A pesar de los avances en educación y capacitación, las mujeres siguen enfrentando barreras en el acceso a empleos bien remunerados y en posiciones de liderazgo, perpetuando su exclusión del mercado laboral.

DATO IMPORTANTE: El artículo 23 de la declaración universal de los derecho humanos establece principios fundamentales sobre el derecho al trabajo, la igualdad salarial y las condiciones justas a tiempo.

Dando como concluido este documental quiero decirles que la exclusión laboral de las mujeres es un problema complejo que requiere un enfoque global para su solución. Por otro lado la igualdad de género en el trabajo no solo es un imperativo de justicia, sino también una condición esencial para el desarrollo económico y social sostenible.

La casita robada- Todos los programas menos los dos que se perdieron de manera cruel y permanente

¿Me avisás cuando llegues a tu casa?

¿Estás en casa?

¿Qué casas podés habitar?

¿Con quién?

¿Qué necesitás para hacerlo?

¿Cuáles son las casas donde pasas tu tiempo?

¿Cuáles son tus casas del terror?

¿Tiraste la casa por la ventana?

Mami, ¿qué casas tumbaste?

¿Cuáles te robaron?

¿Cuáles robaste?

Una vez, sofocada y sin laburo en una capital provincial, le escribí a una radio comunitaria que estaba buscando programas para hacer uno sobre la casa. Esto fue en marzo/abril de 2023 y al día de hoy hicimos 51. Lo hemos conversado casi todo. Refugios, casa de familia, comida casera, vecindades, casas del terror, ventanas indiscretas, convivencia, mudanza, limpieza, cuidar casas de amigos, bulos y preparar la casa para la seducción, infancia, internet como casa, puf, para qué intentar esta lista. Pero el programa también tuvo una pata política de entender que el acceso a la vivienda es lo que habilita que todos los demás derechos sucedan. Es lo que nos permite tener derecho a vivir una vida vivible, al esparcimiento, a la ciudad, a la exploración, al amor. Así es que entrevistamos a gente que trabajó y trabaja distintas cuestiones. Guernica y las luchas de los barrios populares, la exploración de las viviendas ociosas en nuestro territorio, la casa en relación con la violencia de género frente al "quedate en casa" pandémico, en fin. Charlamos con personas que activan en Asambleas por el derecho a la vivienda y a gente que sueña con un lesbiátrico para tener otras vejeces posibles.

Y, además hablamos del alquiler, ¿por qué hablamos tanto del alquiler? Por la cantidad creciente de personas afectadas por esta relación (diez millones en nuestro país en 2023) pero, principalmente, porque hoy por hoy esta relación refleja la manera en que el mercado, los grandes propietarios y las inmobiliarias especulan con el derecho inalienable e inevitable a tener un techo. Porque han convertido a la vivienda en un negocio y esto repercute directamente en nuestras vidas, en lo que somos y lo que soñamos. Y si concentrás menor cantidad de recursos económicos, todavía más. Y si tenés laburo informal (¡frente a los requisitos que se te piden en un contrato!), más. Y si estás peor remunerada y , ¡oh, casualidad! estás a cargo de tareas de cuidado en un mundo donde eso está invisibilizado y pauperizado, más. Y si estás vieja y no le servís al mercado, más. Y si quedás por fuera de la casa de familia cishetero, más, más, más.

Pero, ojo, que el corchazo no nos gusta. Entonces también pasamos música, nos reímos, conversamos con nuestrxs oyentes y les pusimos apodos y consignas, leimos poemas, cuentos y cartas, hasta hicimos radioteatro. Va una lista desordenada de todo lo que hemos hecho en estos dos años, menos el que iba sobre huertas y se perdió para siempre, el que literalmente no se grabó por una tormenta solar y el que no salió por falta de internet pero van todos los demás. Lo dimos, de eso no hay dudas. Ojalá les guste.

【新入荷・新本】

Various Artists Newspaper, Primary Information, 2023

416 pages. 9.75 x 13.38 Inches. Paperback. Edition of 4500.

価格：7,480円（税込）

/

1968年から1971年にかけてスティーヴ・ローレンスが発行し、ピーター・ヒュージャーとアンドリュー・ウルリックが編集に携わったニューヨーク発のタブロイド誌『Newspaper』の復刻版。

『Newspaper』は、言葉を使わず、写真だけを掲載した定期刊行物で、14号にわたって40人以上のアーティストの異質な活動を取り上げています。新しい作品と並行して流用された素材を掲載することに編集の重点を置き、1960年代後半の現代社会を象徴するハイカルチャーとローカルチャーの視覚的言語を体系化しようとしました。美術史的な言説からはほとんど見落とされているが、当時のアメリカで活躍し、尊敬されていた多数のアーティストと、新興のクィア・アーティストの仲間たちを紹介しています。

『Newspaper』は、1969年に創刊されたアンディ・ウォーホルの『Interview』や、レス・レヴィンの『Culture Hero』に先駆けるアーティストが発行するタブロイド誌のひとつですが、他のタブロイド紙とは対照的に、『Newspaper』はイメージに特化していました。

その全14号が初めてこの一冊にまとめられています。

Published by Steve Lawrence and edited with Peter Hujar and Andrew Ullrick, Newspaper was published in New York City between 1968 and 1971.

Newspaper was a wordless, picture-only periodical thatran for fourteen issues and featured the disparate practices of over forty artists. With an editorial focus on placing appropriated material alongside new works, the periodical sought to codify a visual language of high and low culture that represented contemporary society in the late 1960s. While largely overlooked in art-historical discourse, Newspaper showcased many of the most revered artists working in the United States at the time, as well as an emerging coterie of queer artists.

The mid to late sixties was a flourishing period for artists experimenting with new media formats such as books, records, and magazines to create or distribute their work. Newspaper was one of the first artist-published tabloids of its era, preceding Andy Warhol’s Interview and Les Levine’s Culture Hero, both of which debuted in 1969. However, in contrast to other tabloids, Newspaper focused strictly on images.

At a time when photography was not being exhibited regularly in galleries, Newspaper provided an alternative exhibition space for the medium and some of the era’s greatest photographers. The publication’s large size and unbound format encouraged readers to take it apart and hang its pages, which was how Newspaper was installed at the Museum of Modern Art’s influential Information show in 1970.

This is not to say that Newspaper only existed within the narrow confines of the art world, far from it. It lived within (and shared contributors with) a robust network of underground and queer periodicals like The New York Review of Sex, Rags, and Gay Power, among others. Yet, unlike many of these tabloids, Newspaper has largely disappeared from the discourse around underground magazines, queer publishing, and artists’ periodicals.

All fourteen issues of Newspaper are compiled in this volume for the first time.

Featured artists include: Diane Arbus, Art Workers Coalition, Richard Avedon, Clyde Baines, Sheyla Baykal, Peter Beard, Brigid Berlin, Richard Bernstein, Ann Douglas, Paul Fisher, Maurice Hogenboom, Peter Hujar, Scott Hyde, Christo and Jeanne-Claude Javacheff, Ray Johnson, Edwin Klein, Yayoi Kusama, Gerald Laing, Dorothea Lange, Steve Lawrence, Jeff Lew, Roy Lichtenstein, Frank Mercado, Duane Michals, Jack Mitchell, Forrest “Frosty” Myers, Billy Name, Stephen Paley, Warner Pearson, Jurgen Warner Piepke, Charles Pratt, Joseph Raffael, Mel Ramos, Lilo Raymond, Ruspoli-Rodriguez, Lucas Samaras, Alan Saret, Bill Schwedler, Leni Sinclair, Norman Snyder, Elizabeth Staal, Stanley Stellar, Terry Stevenson, Paul Thek, Andrew Ullrick, Andy Warhol, William T. Wiley, and May Wilson.

¿En qué invertir en Uruguay y por qué?

¿En qué invertir en Uruguay y por qué?

Muchos analistas concuerdan en que hoy en día, Uruguay se ha posicionado como un destino clave para inversores gracias a su estabilidad económica, alta calidad de vida y un sector inmobiliario en constante crecimiento. Zonas como Punta del Este, Montevideo y Maldonado destacan por ofrecer alta rentabilidad y proyectos innovadores.

De acuerdo con el informe de Statista (2025), el mercado inmobiliario uruguayo alcanzará un valor de más de 260 billones de dólares, impulsado por una fuerte inversión en infraestructura turística y habitacional, y un contexto macroeconómico estable que favorece este crecimiento.

Promedio de costo de m2 en USD durante 2024. Datos tomados del análisis “Inmuebles - El País”.

Zonas más valoradas para invertir

Punta del Este sobresale por su atractivo turístico y natural, con playas, balnearios y proyectos de lujo como las Torres Cardinal, Manglar y Walmer Lagoon. Más información está disponible en el sitio Invertir en Punta del Este.

En Montevideo, el crecimiento poblacional y la expansión de la mancha urbana impulsan proyectos destacados como Cala del Yacht, BeOne y Newland, que responden a la alta demanda residencial y laboral.

Maldonado, por su parte, combina tranquilidad y proximidad a las playas de Punta del Este, con costos de inversión más bajos en proyectos como Laguna de los Cisnes y Newland. Descubre más sobre los desarrollos en el sitio Proyectos Inmobiliarios en Maldonado.

Nuevas modalidades de inversión

Además de los proyectos tradicionales, en Uruguay emergen opciones accesibles para diferentes perfiles de inversores:

Compra de “pozos” o fideicomisos: Sistemas de pre-ventas que permiten adquirir inmuebles durante su construcción con menor inversión inicial. Por ejemplo, los metros cuadrados de Pilay son una opción para invertir paso a paso.

Crowdfunding inmobiliario: Plataformas como Bricksave reúnen pequeños inversores para adquirir partes de inmuebles que generan rentabilidad fija.

Compra de fracciones de inmuebles tokenizados: Esta innovadora modalidad, basada en tecnología Blockchain, permite invertir con capital inicial reducido. Plataformas como Reental o Kodo Assets lideran esta alternativa. Más información sobre este enfoque en “Tokenización de Inmuebles”.

Ventajas de invertir en Uruguay

Estabilidad sociopolítica y económica: Uruguay tiene el índice de riesgo país más bajo de la región, y su PIB ha mostrado crecimiento constante en las últimas dos décadas.

Marcos regulatorios favorables: Incentivos legales apoyan tanto proyectos sociales como desarrollos turísticos y residenciales.

Calidad de vida: Cultura democrática, seguridad y relaciones internacionales sanas son aspectos valorados por los inversores.

El Real Estate uruguayo ofrece oportunidades únicas de inversión, desde grandes proyectos en Punta del Este hasta opciones innovadoras como crowdfunding y tokenización. Si bien el mercado es altamente rentable, también se abren posibilidades para presupuestos más modestos, haciendo de Uruguay un destino idóneo para invertir hoy.

Netflix el nuevo aliado del cine.

El estudio de Information Systems Research revela que, contrariamente a la creencia popular, las suscripciones a plataformas como Netflix pueden incentivar un aumento en la asistencia a los cines. Los datos del mercado surcoreano muestran que los usuarios de Netflix, al suscribirse, tienden a gastar más en entradas de cine. Aunque el contexto urbano de Corea del Sur puede influir en este comportamiento, la tendencia sugiere que el streaming y el cine pueden coexistir y complementarse en lugar de competir.

Una de las razones detrás de este fenómeno es que, aunque Netflix ofrece comodidad, no puede replicar la experiencia social y sensorial del cine. La gran pantalla, el sonido envolvente y la emoción compartida son elementos que atraen a los espectadores, especialmente a los jóvenes y a personas con ingresos más bajos, quienes ven el cine como una oportunidad de socialización y escape de la rutina diaria. Este aspecto de la experiencia compartida contribuye significativamente a la satisfacción del consumidor.

Por último, los cines han respondido a la competencia del streaming adaptando sus ofertas, incorporando tecnologías avanzadas y creando experiencias más completas, como salas IMAX y opciones gourmet. Además, las plataformas de streaming han comenzado a colaborar con cines para estrenos simultáneos, lo que no solo genera interés, sino que también les permite competir en eventos de premios. Esta coordinación sugiere que el futuro del entretenimiento puede implicar una colaboración efectiva entre ambos formatos, beneficiando tanto a las salas de cine como a los servicios de streaming.

En mi opinión, la relación entre las plataformas de streaming y el cine tradicional es un reflejo de cómo el consumo de entretenimiento está evolucionando. En lugar de verlas como competidoras, creo que deberían ser consideradas como aliados que pueden enriquecer la experiencia del espectador. Mientras que el streaming ofrece comodidad y acceso a una amplia variedad de contenido, el cine proporciona una experiencia única que no se puede replicar en casa. La clave está en encontrar un equilibrio donde ambas formas de entretenimiento se complementen, permitiendo que el público disfrute de lo mejor de ambos mundos. Esto no solo puede reanimar las salas de cine, sino también fomentar una cultura cinematográfica más rica y diversa.

De acuerdo con el reciente informe de Oxfam México, revela que la desigualdad en el país continúa en aumento.

La fortuna total de las 14 personas ultrarricas mexicanas se ha casi duplicado desde el inicio de la pandemia. Asimismo, la organización destaca que la fortuna conjunta de Carlos Slim y Germán Larrea creció un 70% desde 2020 y ahora equivale a la riqueza de la mitad de la población más pobre de América Latina y el Caribe. Es decir, dos mexicanos ultrarricos poseen tanto como 334 millones de personas.

La propuesta de Oxfam

México consiste en pasar de una economía dominada por los ultrarricos a una economía para todas las personas. Tenemos 5 ejes:

1.Que ganes más en tu día a día.

Promover políticas que aseguren salarios justos para todas las personas, independientemente de su estatus laboral, y una fiscalidad progresiva que garantice una distribución más justa de la riqueza.

2. Que pagues menos por lo que consumes.

Regular los mercados para prevenir el abuso corporativo, desarrollar una política industrial innovadora a nivel nacional, y proporcionar servicios públicos de calidad que reduzcan los gastos de los hogares.

3. Que cuidar sea una elección.

Crear una economía y gobiernos que cuiden. Que se reconozcan y compensen justamente estas labores, promoviendo su redistribución dentro de los hogares y la sociedad.

4. Que la riqueza sea para quien la trabaja.

Establecer normativas que beneficien a los trabajadores independientes y a las micro, pequeñas y medianas empresas, fomentando además estructuras empresariales alternativas y la economía social y solidaria.

5. Que pague y repare quien más contamina.

Reformar las políticas ambientales para responsabilizar a quienes más contribuyen a la crisis climática, alejándonos de los modelos extractivos y promoviendo un futuro sostenible.
