I work at a big chain bookstore. Someone at another store found this while tidying up the children’s department.

We went to see family at Christmas a couple of years ago and my granddad dug this article out from 1977!
Title “Parang! Parang! Survival of Hispanic religious songs in Trinidad folklore” by Silvia Moodie
(Text is too small to read otherwise I’d type it out on here)

It’s that time again. It’s Tumblr’s 2022 Year in Review!
Every year, the team behind Fandometrics analyzes, categorizes, and ranks all the most discussed things on Tumblr—that’s a year’s worth of your tags, searches, posts, likes, and reblogs—and packages them up into a little thing we like to call Year in Review.
Tumblr’s Year in Review contains a full 365 days’ worth of data, but it runs from October 21, 2021, to October 20, 2022. Tragically, this means Goncharov (1973), the greatest mafia movie ever made, will not appear on the lists this year. We’re just as disappointed as you are, but that gives us all something to look forward to in 2023—especially if @vancityreynolds’ remake gets a release date.
This Year in Review has all your classics like Movies, Web Series, and Anime & Manga. It’s also got last year’s new lists (because, frankly, what would a Year in Review in 2022 be without Genshin Impact Characters and Minecraft Streamers?). And we’ve added some new lists for you this year, too—a brand new Formula 1 list and a few special editorial deep dives.
Stay tuned this month. There may be a few surprises along the way. Maybe even an exciting launch next week. Who knows! We certainly don’t! Not a clue. For now, here’s Tumblr’s Year in Review for you to dig into.

A gentle reminder that your accent is lovely, no matter where you come from, even if it's hard to understand at first for strangers who are not used to hearing it, it is still lovely. How wonderful that you can speak the same language with your unique melody to it!

Hi! I'm a beginner in Spanish and I have a question about Encanto there's a scene where someone says miercoles when something bad happens but why Wednesday?
It's the equivalent of saying "shoot" instead of "shit"
miércoles "Wednesday" starts off very similarly to mierda "shit"
It's very common in some places in Latin America, and I think probably the best known example of it is in the song Camisa negra by Juanes
In linguistic terms it's called a "minced oath"... a way to swear without actually swearing
