Mona Mejia "Everything was selling really quickly"In 2015, Mejia's family was in need of additional income to supplement her husband's pay. When she began listing more items, she noticed that "everything was selling really quickly" and real money was trickling in. It wasn't until roughly a year ago, however — when she started selling on livestreams through Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook, that her business really took off. After working through her closet, Mejia took her earnings and went to yard sales and clearance sections to look for bargain products she could buy and resell. Despite discounting, she says she's able to maintain high levels of profitability by only selling items she bought at especially cheap rates.

☆ Мексика обвинила Zara в краже их культуры

Мексика обвинила международные модные бренды Zara, Anthropologie и Patowl в присвоении культуры, заявив, что они использовали образцы местных мексиканских групп в своих проектах, не принося пользы сообществам, о которых идет речь. В пятницу Министерство культуры Мексики заявило, что оно направило трем компаниям письма, подписанные министром культуры Алехандрой Фраусто, с просьбой «публично разъяснить, на каком основании коллективная собственность может быть приватизирована». По данным министерства, ZARA, принадлежащая крупнейшему в мире розничному продавцу одежды Inditex, использовала узор, типичный для местного сообщества в Сан-Хуан-Колорадо в южном штате Оахака. Anthropologie, принадлежащая URBN, использовала дизайн, разработанный другим местным сообществом, а Пэтоул скопировал образец из Сан-Антонио Кантино Веласко, по данным Министерства культуры. В 2019 году мексиканское правительство обвинило модный дом Carolina Herrera в культурном присвоении местных узоров и текстиля из Мексики в своей коллекции.

☆ Dovezile arată că oamenii timpurii ar fi hibernat pentru a supraviețui iernilor nemiloase

Oamenii de știință argumentează că leziunile și alte semne observate pe oasele fosilizate ale oamenilor timpurii sunt la fel ca cele descoperite pe oasele altor animale care hibernează. Astfel, asta sugerează că predecesorii noștri făceau față iernilor nemiloase prin faptul că își încetineau metabolismul și dormeau timp de mai multe luni. Aceste fosile datează din urmă cu 400.000 de ani și provin cel mai probabil de la neandertalienii timpurii sau predecesorii lor. Acest sit este unul dintre cele mai importante tezaure paleontologice ale planetei noastre și a oferit detalii cruciale despre modul în care evoluția umană a avut loc în Europa. Totodată, cercetătorii au recunoscut că ideea „ar putea părea de domeniul științifico-fantasticului”, însă aceștia subliniază că multe mamifere, inclusiv primatele, hibernează.
