@gkmizuno The production of that performance was incredible.

The little boy who Bad Bunny handed his Grammy to at the Super Bowl was Liam Ramos.

Good to know. 😅🤣

I loved that #BadBunny reminded us of the nations in the Americas during his halftime show at the #Superbowl. Diversity is our strength!

Milan may ultimately be remembered as a small moment – a few seconds of crowd noise during a long ceremony. But it also felt like a preview of the next phase of global sport broadcasting: one where narrative control is shared, contested and instantly verifiable. The world is watching. And this time, it is also recording.

American broadcasters cutting the boos for JD Vance at the Olympics is a bold move—nothing says 'unifying the world' like pretending everyone loves your least popular export.

Share if you agree!

Using the right words -- quoting them in all of their loathsomeness -- is important. They are facts. #US media should pay attention and follow suit.

“The response of Trump and most Republican politicians) to the release of the Epstein Files clarifies who they are really trying to protect: Rich, well-connected pedophiles and the people in Epstein’s orbit who are willing to aid, abet or look the other way while girls are trafficked and sexually abused.” https://amp.thenewstribune.com/opinion/article314601797.html

The general Bad Bunny “controversy” is a top 10 stupidest discourse that I’ve lived through in maybe my entire life.

Real life human beings are gonna have to pretend to enjoy 2026 Kid Rock because the Spanish language offends them, what’s even happening anymore.

Bryan Armen Graham notes that though NBC censored the boos aimed at JD Vance and wife Usha at the Winter Olympics., "American athletes were cheered, their enormous contingent given one of the most full-throated receptions of the night. The political emissaries were not universally welcomed. Both things can be true at once."

"To many Bad Bunny fans, Sunday’s show, which he has dedicated to “all Latinos and Latinas around the world and here in the United States,” lands as an act of resistance. It’s a performance they hope will reverberate far beyond the Golden State arena."

Each data center can “drink” as much as an entire community. Yet #Texas does not require data center operators to disclose projected #water use or report actual consumption. This makes research difficult and limits visibility for water-stressed municipalities. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-ai-data-centers-water-usage-regulation/

Santa Clara is one of the most militarized places in America right now. Historically, there is usually only one American event that has a higher national security level than a presidential inauguration. It’s the Super Bowl.

In November 2016, San Diego voters overwhelmingly rejected Measure C, a ballot initiative that would have raised hotel taxes to help fund a $1.8 billion stadium and convention center project for the NFL's San Diego Chargers.

Critics and local leaders viewed the project as too risky, arguing it lacked economic benefit and functioned as a gift to the team's billionaire owner. Following the rejection of Measure C, the Chargers relocated to Los Angeles.

"There is nothing wrong with building expensive stadiums. What I don’t like is billionaire owners making John and Jane Q. Taxpayer foot the bill. Americans have paid over $10.6 billion to build the current NFL stadiums. But when we want to visit that stadium we helped build, we’re then required to pay that owner $200 per ticket, $50 for parking, $13.75 for a beer and $6.25 for a hot dog."
