The ending of Contra Las Cuerdas / Against the Ropes is one of the most satisfying I've ever seen. I really want a second season, and there are enough story threads still unresolved to make it, but that ending was so fulfilling that I wouldn't be too sad if this was it. I loved it!

Claudia Trejos, a Hispanic woman and motivational speaker, has thrived in the male-dominated world of sports journalism for over 25 years. She has worked for ESPN, Fox Sports, Showtime, Telemundo and Univision among others. Claudia is committed to using her experiences and lessons to help female and minority employees tap into their own personal journeys to become braver leaders through the challenges they face, such as crisis, discrimination, and imposter syndrome.
As a Hispanic woman who was one of the first women to cover boxing at many major events, I know what it’s like to be in a male-dominated field. On the journey to achieving success, I learned important lessons about taking risks and making mistakes, being prepared for failure and managing crisis. Through my experiences, I’ve developed a message of encouragement for others working in male-dominated industries: use what you have learned from your challenges and turn them into opportunities.
My communication skills and expertise in conducting panel discussions will help you and your employees share their stories. I speak English, French, Portuguese and Spanish. I am a motivational speaker that has traveled the world for work, representing many different cultures. My stories will inspire your team to reach their potential as leaders.

it bugs me that punctuation nitpicking is most of what passes for education in (and thus what people think of when they think about) "grammar," because 1) most authorities on the subject are authorities only within particular registers or dialects, 2) they base a lot of their opinions on bad or totally spurious data, and 3) punctuation is by far the least interesting feature of grammar. i mean, to the extent it is grammar at all.
i think any feature of a written language that most literate speakers of a language don't share substantially consistent intuitions on probably qualifies more as a feature of style than of grammar. but i would go beyond that, even, in many cases--features of punctuation that differ from language to language, like style of quotation mark or where to place spaces around punctuation, just aren't important structural features of the language like how you form plurals. you can write english with French punctuation and it will be perfectly intelligible. you can write languages with no punctuation (as many have been written historically) and be perfectly intelligible. fashions in punctuation change much more rapidly than fashions in morphology, syntax, or even spelling.
trying to source authoritative information on English punctuation is especially quixotic because there is not only regional variation, but there's substantial diachronic variation within just, like, the last sixty or seventy years--my parents were taught slightly different punctuation rules in school than I was! the real answer to "what is correct punctuation" is "whatever the audience to which you are writing expects."
and yet punctuation gets stressed so much when it comes to teaching writing skills despite the fact that there are much more important writing skills you need to master (like cleanly laying out an argument and moving through it point by point in persuasive writing, or structuring narrative and scenes in creative writing), because it is easy to teach. the pedagogical equivalent of bikeshedding. but it doesn't matter very much. and we all know it doesn't matter much, because some of the most celebrated writers in the english language either didn't use punctuation like we do or were deliberately experimental with it.

I know this is entirely NOT the point because Barbie is first and foremost a commercial, but it really shows how Greta gerwig has such a narrow perspective on womanhood because there was not ONE butch/masculine woman in that entire movie.
