Puerto Rico has daily power outages. Count the number of total grid collapses since 2021, Luma energy, and the FOMB. Infrahuman living conditions in a U.S. territory.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance featured a sugar cane field, a wedding, a pan-American parade and more. The show placed his beloved Puerto Rico at the center of a communal celebration. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/08/a...
With apologies to our twin and the burbs and greater MN, this is part of why I think it really kicked off in Minneapolis: we knew no one was coming to save us. Statewide liberals find us distasteful. Our mayor all but hates us. We have some strong as fuck council members and state reps and sens, but
BRUSUELAS: “.. Domestic electricity inflation inside the July consumer price index increased by 9.5% on a six-month average annualized basis. .. it will most likely move higher.”

Yesterday, Russ Vought tweeted out that DOE is canceling nearly $8 billion in clean energy funding. Today, @latitudemedia.bsky.social @maeveallsup.bsky.social obtained the list of all 321 projects that are having their awards pulled.

Bad Bunny's done it well for years.
"El Apagón" criticizes the extended power outages on the island, the privatization of the power system in Puerto Rico, and gentrification on the island
Worked so hard to get this money... yet another thing to get canceled and erased
At this point, we are at least fourth class citizens 😣
Bad Bunny is telling the world that the people in Puerto Rico are American citizens and deserve reliable and resilient electricity and infrastructure investment from the U.S. government.
Last year, the administration cancelled the solar for all program that was helping improve the grid and help low-income households in all 50 states and Puerto Rico bsky.app/profile/cost...
Remember that under the first Trump administration, Puerto Rico had to suffer through the longest power blackout in U.S. history bsky.app/profile/cost...
power transformers mentioned in halftime show ⚡️
My aunt and uncle went without power for 2.5 months after Maria. My grandfather who lives in San Juan went even longer. The power lines were the most impactful image of many tonight.
Your periodic reminder that almost 9 years after Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico still doesn't have a functioning power grid.

Disturbingly detailed analysis of my first rewatch incoming
From the bestskeeting author of the Bluesky-famous six-week Bad Bunny 101 comes this essential close reading of the halftime show! 🧵
The biggest halftime audience for a Super Bowl of all time. Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance required 9,852 theatrical pyrotechnics, nearly 400 costumed extras, and a lot of ingenuity. And yes, that was a real couple featured in the wedding. www.wired.com/story/bad-bu...
It was beautiful… Bad Bunny Delivers a Love Letter to Puerto Rico at Super Bowl Halftime www.nytimes.com/2026/02/08/a...
Bad Bunny saved the game.
loved every second of Bad Bunny. That message of inclusion and a celebration of cultures like Puerto Rico’s is just what America needs right now. Plus, his music just gets you in motion. 10/10
Best halftime show stage production I’ve seen in a while, great performance too. That ruled so hard
That was delightful. And maybe the best production I’ve ever seen at a Super Bowl halftime show. Big Broadway vibes.
Best Super Bowl halftime show ever and it’s not that close
That was a gorgeous journey. Easily the best halftime show I’ve ever watched.
i think that was the best produced super bowl halftime show ever
That was hands down the best halftime show ever. It was filled with so many references to Puerto Rican culture and history. The sugarcane fields, the casita, the streets of NYC, and the power lines. All of it resonated so much. Boricua por siempre.
Seguimos aquí. 🇵🇷
Best halftime show ever? The production value of that was INSANE.

And yes, that was a real couple featured in the wedding.
