The "analysis" tag on this makes it even better
Analysis: Weeks before he set foot on the stage, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance had already become a media event.
But if you were looking for political commentary, the closest that you got was when he said “God bless America” in English.

Analysis | Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was expected to provoke. Did it?
The Bad Bunny Super Bowl show nodded to injustices in Puerto Rico but mostly evoked wholesome family values that meshed with the more sentimental commercials.

Two things I’m not sure is widely understood:
1. Many public servants no longer have their own desks and work in transient government co-working spaces
2. Many describe a Kafkaesque existence of going to physical offices only to spend their time on video calls with the people sitting next to them

Ok also why is there so much bad blood in bobsleigh?? All these teams breaking apart
I'm watching this miniseries on Canada's bobsleigh team and it is INSANE. There's a person whose job it is to tuck their head and get jostled around until the end of the run and the new person has no ease in — it's just go in blind at 130 km+/hr and that's how you learn

Case in point: “Autumn Almanac”
Rock critics like to bemoan that the Kinks aren't as popular as the Beatles, but I think the Kinks have one major weakness - they're too British. They read as mushy peas. They're closer to Mungo Jerry than Little Richard.

The hand to turn corners?! This is the purest form of childhood sledding as sport I’ve ever seen
During part of this we discussed Alpine Luge, which is an amazing sliding sport that sadly is not in the Olympics.
Anyway, here's what that looks like, with one of the greatest to ever doing it giving the demonstration down the track in Deutschnofen

I am struck how all the headlines on this reference “tow trucks” rather than, say, organized crime or gangs as if tow trucks should mean something to the rest of the country
Trying to explain the tow truck wars to people not from here is sure something.
I knew about the tow truck wars in Toronto but I did not know that MORE THAN 1 IN 8 bullets fired by guns anywhere in Toronto in the year 2024 were related to tow truck driver turf wars???
And the police force is not just complicit but LEAKING INFO TO HITMEN????
