A real marriage, folks.
Apparently, these two asked Benito if he could perform at their wedding and he said "I got a better idea, how 'bout you get married at my halftime show where the world is your witness and you get me PLUS Lady Gaga AND Ricky Martin!"
This couple hit the damn jackpot...
The couple featured in Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime performance was legally married during halftime.

There are a lot of people who assume that things will go on more or less as they have, without realizing that it took a lot of effort to get us to the wildly imperfect place we were at, in which AT LEAST kids didn’t die of preventable diseases and masked federal agents did not kidnap people.

NEW: ProPublica went inside the detention center for immigrant families in Dilley, Texas.

Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the United States and the fear of what comes next.

One of the most miserable things about living in this era is having to watch the stupidest & most arrogant people in the world have to relearn The Why of literally everything good that we collectively do the hard way.

The answer is always ‘Because a bunch of people died, fuckwit.’

NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:

Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

COLUMBO: And these babies, you just… gave them away?

OBI-WAN: For their own safety. Their father had become a very great threat.

COLUMBO: So you leave the boy on his father’s planet, under his father’s name, where he buys his father’s droids—

OBI-WAN: We can’t all be princesses, Lieutenant.
COLUMBO: My wife, she loves your games. The sunken ghost ship level. It’s her favourite

MARIO: Thank-a you!

As a person who has, at times, expressed concern about the climate of free speech on campus in years past...

This is much worse. This is 1000% worse. Extremely worse.

No good, very bad, much worse. Obvious First Amendment violation worse.
FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

Imagine being so dumb that after the billionaire class has raided Americans net worth for decades, pillaged the institutions that served the people and exposed in the Epstein files as the highest concentration of pedophiles than any other group, you go and do this.

I mean, I'll let you decide. It's basically how I'd imagine a pro-billionaire march in SF would look, maybe ever so slightly too serious to be satire, but I'm not 100%.
