We send stuff to space, and part of that stuff falls. Every year, more uncontrolled objects are reentering Earth's atmosphere. Most of these objects burn out before hitting land, but not all of them. If this trend continues, we might see more impacts in the future. #dataviz #space #earth

Talking about space stuff falling, coincidentally I've just prepared this data visualization:

Betting ads made up 17.3% of all World Cup ads in Argentina, more than any other category. Meanwhile, 16% of Argentine teens (13-18) admit they've bet online, and 53% of them believe you can "win money easily." The real story: over 95% of online bettors end up net losers (UC San Diego). #dataviz

Do Argentines hate England? Musically, no. Historically, it's complicated. Over 1,330 hours of British music passed trough my pleased Argentine ears. Cheers for the music, lads. Today, though? The mythical little Argentine with the No. 10 blue shirt returns. #dataviz #worldcup #argentina #england

Possession doesn't win World Cup games. No team with over 65% possession won their first 2026 World Cup match. Is this an mind-blowing insight? No, just surprising. There is no correlation between possession and match outcome so far. I found this a bit counter-intuitive! #dataviz #worldcup

The "League of the World Champions" is also the world champion in football matches ending 0-0 in 2026. With 30 teams and only 2 relegations, draws are "good enough" for many teams. We, the fans, pay the price by watching lower quality football. #WorldCup #football #dataviz

Franco Guiragossian @dataviz.ar · 30/05/2026

The #football Argentine first division has 30 teams and only 2 relegations. Because of this, many weaker teams tend to aim for draws, and produce boring games. Comparing the data against the Brazilian first division (20 teams, 4 relegations), the results speak for themselves. #dataviz #brasileirao

2x2 multiplot showing the results of Argentina's LPF vs. Brasil's Brasileirão. Football results are very different in both leagues, likely caused by the differences in format. The Argentine league incentivizes draws.

Most palindromic places in Argentina are concentrated in the north. Many of these come from the guaraní language (Itatí, Amamá, Yatay). Makes me wonder how many palindrome places Paraguay has! I will probably explore that later, but I'm hoping for a Paraguayan #dataviz creator to do it 🙏

#Inflation isn't really gone in Argentina: it's been rising for 11 months (3.4% in Mar-26). But the story doesn't end there: Food, beverages, housing & utilities have reported inflation ABOVE the national average for 6+ months. These hit lower income populations hardest. #dataviz #economics

Even controlling for hours worked, men earn more per hour. Why does the gap exist? This data can't answer that, but it can show what doesn't explain it: paid hours worked and education have nothing to do with it. Built with D3.js. Source: EPH (INDEC)

Franco Guiragossian @dataviz.ar · 12/04/2026

Part of the story: men work more paid hours per week. Note: This chart only considers paid work. Women spend roughly twice as many hours on unpaid domestic and care work (INDEC, 2021).

Franco Guiragossian @dataviz.ar · 12/04/2026

On average, men also earn more per month. At every education level, men's average monthly income exceeds women's.

Franco Guiragossian @dataviz.ar · 12/04/2026

It starts with access to paid work. Men have consistently higher employment rates than women across all education levels. The gap is widest among those with incomplete primary education (41% vs 23%).

Franco Guiragossian @dataviz.ar · 12/04/2026

In Argentina, women earn between 14% and 26% less per hour worked than men, depending on education level. The gap shrinks with more education, but never closes. A data story in 5 charts, from Argentina's latest household survey (EPH-INDEC, Q3 2025)🧵👇 #dataviz #GenderPayGap #Argentina

Is the economy doing alright? Yes, inflation is dropping! No, jobs are declining! Reality is complex. We live in a time when cherry-picking and confirmation bias are at their peak. Critical thinking doesn't sell much, unfortunately. Inspired by @yesbut.bsky.social #dataviz #economy #argentina

Uncertainty remains high. Look at the volatility of the USD/ARS since the partial removal of restrictions. I say partial because companies still can't freely withdraw profit in USD from the country. I do agree that these are steps in the right direction, and the scenario is optimistic in general.
