#10 - Hobiai, Pomėgiai ir Laisvalaikis: Hobbies and Leisure

During the summers not too long ago, when politicians were on vacation and schools were closed, news in the UK often featured stories about things like cats in trees and UFOs, because there wasn't much else to report.

It was called "silly season" in the UK — of course there was other news, but not the usual daily politics, so there was more time for happier stories.

But some may feel like there isn't time for silly season these days.

And according to a recent study, thinking about the news is making British people anxious, something that's causing some of them to avoid engaging with it.

It also means they're less likely to engage with politics, the study suggests.

Researchers spoke to 43 people in the UK who said they never or rarely engage with professionally made news, whether that's on television, in newspapers or online.

The research was published in September 2022, but the interviews took place between November 2016 and March 2017, not long after the UK voted to leave the European Union (EU).

However, for most, it may not have been leaving the EU that caused them to avoid the news. Many reported feeling anxious or afraid when thinking about news stories featuring crime, war or terrorism.

People did think that they should know a little bit about global and national events, but this wasn't always enough to make them follow the news.

Many felt they could not understand the country's politics, or that political news was not relevant to them.

For politicians themselves, this could be a challenge, suggests the study — trying to communicate with those who avoid the news.

'It Makes Us Anxious': Why Some People Avoid the News

La lucha libre forma parte de la identidad mexicana, como el mole, los mariachis y el tequila; las máscaras de los luchadores nos identifican tanto como el águila sobre un nopal devorando una serpiente. Gracias a esta carga cultural, ahora es Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Ciudad de México.
Los primeros encuentros de lucha libre en México ocurrieron a principios del siglo XIX. Estas primeras exhibiciones incluían funciones de lucha grecorromana, las cuales fueron llevadas a cabo por tropas francesas durante la Intervención (1860-1867).
La lucha libre mexicana se deriva del catch-as-catch-can francés —que fue popular durante la década de 1930— en combinación con el wrestling estadounidense y la lucha grecorromana.
El 21 de septiembre de 1933 se fundó la empresa más importante de lucha libre en el mundo, la Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre. Y ahí comenzó a escribirse la historia de la lucha libre mexicana.
El mayor auge de la lucha libre mexicana fue, quizá, entre las décadas de 1940 y 1970, periodo que coincide con el florecimiento de otras industrias culturales del país, como el radio, el cine y la televisión.

La gloria del cine cuyos protagonistas fueron luchadores, el gran Santo como el más icónico, lograron proyectar también rasgos muy particulares de la mexicanidad, como la espiritualidad, el erotismo, la comedia y la tragedia.

La lucha libre mexicana, mezcla de circo, maroma y teatro, tiene muchos admiradores y proyección internacional. En México, de acuerdo con Morales, Fuentes y Aurrecoechea, la afición a este deporte, está apenas debajo del futbol.
