I’ve had his national history of PR on the stack next to my bed for about two years now. I need to get to it!
"I became a historian because I wanted to share the knowledge with people outside of academia. But never in my life did I think that Bad Bunny would help my scholarship reach such broad audiences, using the biggest platform in the world." news.wisc.edu/pop-star-bad...
Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

I just woke up and I think I might still be drunk. Not because this really cracked me up, but because I’m like, “there’s something deeply poignant about this.”

The difference between the human performances on the field (artists and players both) and what the advertising agencies showed us tonight was stark. The advertising industry needs to get its shit together. The shirt I’m wearing tonight was a bit of serendipity (and full of nacho crumbs).

I deleted a slightly-derogatory Bad Bunny post from earlier about the Liam Conejo confusion because in the end the guy is doing good shit and doesn’t need it from the likes of me.

There has been so much AI in tonight’s ads. Not just advertised for but advertised by. Gross. Looks like shit.
I just Shazammed an AI song and I cannot tell you how angry that makes me.

My Uncle Mac and Aunt Ruth called them “horvie-dorvies” and I’m not sure if they were taking the piss or truly didn’t know the pronunciation. Anyway, they’ve passed decades ago now, but my family still calls them horvie-dorvies.

I’m not sure that some of you realize this is what most all of the political ads are like in 50% of the country.

Vic was my bro. Brent was his real brother. (This makes Brent and I half-brothers.) Vic was the funniest weirdest most thoughtful guy you never had the luck to meet.
Last night my brother Victor, passed away after a courageous battle with colon cancer. I am incredibly proud of the strength he showed and how he handled his journey until the very end.

Love you brother. Rest easy and give dad a big hug for us.

DFW (not my neighborhood, not necessarily Dallas, not necessarily Texas) is by far the worst place I’ve ever lived. Forget that there are no real waters nor mountains here, forget that it was built for cars so has no energy: it’s that the hearts of the people in this region are black and shriveled.
The podium at Frisco City Hall became a soapbox for residents to speak about H-1B visas, immigration and belonging to a packed house Tuesday night. The uncharacteristic turnout was prompted by social media posts urging people to address an “Indian takeover” of the city at the meeting.
