As someone that has grown up surrounded by beaches and done surf life saving, I know how the sea works. Lots of people dont. Every summer multiple tourists die here because they don’t respect the sea, if you’re going to the coast, here’s a thing I saw on Facebook.

Last year, photographer Devin Doyle, who’d spent two years photographing high school rodeo culture in the United States, became curious as to what the Mexican equivalent might look like. After all, he says, “It’s the same land, the same ranching culture.” What he found was an exciting competitive equestrian sport performed by women dressed in stunning traditional costumes, a sport directly inspired by the Adelitas—the female soldiers who fought in the Mexican Revolution.

Escaramuza, an event within the larger rodeo-like sport known as charrería (now recognized as Mexico’s national sport) is comprised of teams of up to 16 women (though only eight can compete at a time) performing a series of routines inside a lienzo charro, or stadium, at breakneck galloping speeds—all while riding sidesaddle.

Bath Magic

Spa sorcery is a branch of magic targeting frayed nerves, tense muscles, sore bodies, and the simple glory of having the day off.

Scaled creatures often pamper themselves with a polish and an alignment. Old scales are painlessly clipped off, damaged edges are smoothed, layers are straightened.

Tentacles are kneed and bodies of all shapes, sizes, and compositions are rigorously massaged.

Magical soaps clean and protect, mystical oils rejuvenate and heal. Mud, imported from all over the Netherworld, is used to extract stress (and poisons if one is so afflicted).

Evil is difficult. Take time to recalibrate and repair — you owe it to yourself.
