Bad Bunny’s jersey said “Ocasio.” On Twitter, at least some handful of people got performatively upset about that. For months, these people had been ready for the Puerto Rican star to make a grandstanding political statement at the Super Bowl, and they thought that they saw it before the performance even started. At least some number of fuckheads just assumed that the jersey was an endorsement of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the right’s favorite punching bags. These people missed the most obvious fucking thing: It’s his name. Bad Bunny’s government name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. Duh.

PinkPantheress Is Not The Weakest Link

It’s been a big week for PinkPantheress, who made a surprise appearance as a contestant on the BBC trivia show The Weakest Link Saturday night. The show’s premise is that the group of contestants take turns answering general knowledge questions, collectively trying to answer as many consecutive questions as possible in a row.

See for yourself below.
