"The Maya Train: Infrastructure and Racial Capitalism in Southeast Mexico" by Claudia Fonseca Alfaro

"The racialising practices embedded in the discourse behind the Maya Train can be summarised in one theme: a myth of expendable bodies in a heartland of expropriation. Indigenous bodies are perceived as disposable in a context where the capitalist voracity that fuels the vision of the Maya Train sees the environment, health of local communities, and livelihood practices as things worth sacrificing. I describe the southeast as a heartland of expropriation because the Maya Train represents a new chapter in the historical expansion of massive tourism in the Yucatán Peninsula. The Maya Train is a continuation of spatial reorganisation practices that have previously attempted to connect the region to circuits of capital through infrastructure. The megaproject, however, represents a new chapter in the sense that it exhibits two departures from previous infrastructure-led developmentalist interventions: (a) the increased role of the military in constructing, protecting, and managing civilian infrastructure; and (b) a change of tone in discourse. The AMLO administration—a self-described leftist government that attempts to portray an image of awareness of colonial legacies—has disavowed neoliberalism, promising a “fourth transformation” that will see a new age where the well-being of the poor comes before the economic interests of the private sector. Despite this promise, the Maya Train project reminds us of previous interventions carried out by AMLO's neoliberal predecessors and fails to address colonial residues in any meaningful way."

#TropicalStormSara to unleash life-threatening #flooding in #CentralAmerica

Tropical Storm Sara will bring an extreme risk to lives and property in Central America where feet of rain may fall before tracking toward #Florida next week.

By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

Published Nov 14, 2024

"Rain may pour down for days on the northern parts of #Nicaragua and #Honduras before shifting to eastern parts of #Guatemala, #Belize and southeastern #Mexico this weekend.

"A general 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) will fall in this zone, but a large pocket of 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) of rain is forecast from northern Honduras and Nicaragua, with an AccuWeather Local StormMax™ of 50 inches (127 cm).

"'This amount of rain will trigger major #FlashFlooding and #mudslides with the potential for catastrophic loss of life and tremendous damage,' AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter warned.

"Some communities could be cut off for days due to washed-out roads and bridges or blocked by debris flows. Demands for rescue and recovery efforts, as well as food and medical supplies, will be great in the wake of the storm in the region.

"Because of Sara's proximity to the #Caribbean for several days, it will likely not unwind fully. As a result, winds, waves and #StormSurge will blast the coast of #Honduras, eastern #Guatemala, #Belize and Mexico's #Yucatan Peninsula. Sporadic #PowerOutages are likely due to #StrongWinds."

Morning Everyone!
Did everyone find what I posted about the new likely to be hurricane/tropical storm Sara?? I don't even know what time it was...late but this is what he said.

Dylan Federico @DylanFedericoWX
HIGH CHANCE that #SARA forms in the Western Caribbean later this week.

Interests in #Jamaica, the #Caymans, #Cuba, and the #Yucatan must closely monitor the progress of this disturbance. #Florida needs to watch this heading into next week.

Milton is reaching peak wind speeds, at a full blown Cat5, as of now.

Yucatan peninsula N will catch some hell.

Moving forward, Milton will meet some shearing, and waters that are not as warm, along with #tropicalDisturbance1 which is pushing considerable mass of hot air, light rain away from Florida Keys into the Atlantic, creating a vast plume of air + rain, which will have a considerable mitigating effect on Milton.

Milton is still expected to make landing as a Cat3, irrespective of panic floggers and dezinfo.

Keep an eye on the Public Advisories, disregard the hype. yes, conditions are fluid, but the development has been steady as observed and projected by the people who actually know what they are doing. Stop listening to clueless people seeking attention.

Heed #EvacuationOrders , check your Flood Zone info, and monitor LEGITIMATE INFORMATION SOURCES, such as NOAA/NHC, NOT JoeBlow calling themselves "climate scientist" without any actual qualifications. The actual scientists are in the NHC. The result of their work is PUBLIC and available at the links above.

#ClimateDiary A very emotional meteorologist telling us just how awful #HurricaneMilton is. And that it’s #yucatan in Mexico that will be hit first, when it’s still much stronger 1/2

Mastodon CanadaDB 🇵🇸 🌎🌏🌍 (@dbattistella@mstdn.ca)Angehängt: 1 Video Understandably emotional update from meteorologist John Morales, as #Hurricane #Milton hits Category 5 status. TIL that a man named Bryan Milton was President of ExxonMobil Fuels and Lubricants until 2020, after being with the company for over 30 years, so we should consider Hurricane Milton, and all the damage it causes, Bryan Milton's hurricane. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #FossilFuels #ExxonMobil #BryanMilton #HurricaneMilton

Venomous #crustacean from Mayan underwater caves provides new drug candidates phys.org/news/2024-10-venomous

Diversely evolved xibalbin variants from remipede venom inhibit potassium channels and activate PKA-II and Erk1/2 signaling bmcbiol.biomedcentral.com/arti

"It was only discovered a few years ago that there also exist venomous #crustaceans—#remipedes that look like centipedes and live in marine #caves... Xibalbanus tulumensis lives in the cenotes, which are the underwater cave systems on the #Yucatan"
