Dagoberto Zapata collapses on a street in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, after chasing fireflies through a swampy field on a humid summer day. Yesterday Dagoberto made a 600 mile journey from the mezcal vendor to his home and then back again 12 more times for more mezcal. Today Dagoberto sleeps amidst a backdrop of political uncertainty and racial disharmony.

Zonz (zonz@noauthority.social)'s status on Thursday, 25-Jul-2024 09:25:56 JST Zonz Professional migrant Huitzli Motli holds a baby while galavanting proudly down a Mexican freeway, smug grin on her face, with the hopes and dreams of Catholic charities hanging in the balance. Yesterday Huitzli bought a package of tamarindos from a fat Mexican named Chuey, tomorrow she will implore someone to buy a flower from her on a Houston street corner. Say hello to Huitzli if you see her, maybe even buy a flower, but the baby isn't her's.

After four years, Talifico saved up enough money to buy a Honda Pilot and a belt sander, moved back to Tlaxcala, and was imprisoned for drunk driving. Mexican authorities impounded his new Pilot and never returned it.
