"Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro tests positive for coronavirus"
This shouldn't be surprising considering how hard he was trying to get it for the past several months but it genuinely surprised me when I saw the headline.

"15 women accuse top Washington Redskins executives of sexual harassment in bombshell report"
Only 15? This is the same team that was using their cheerleaders as an escort service (only?) two years ago.

I follow several female sports journalists on Twitter. When this dropped, every one of them had the same response. "Of course. Happened to me."
No doubt. I can't imagine any woman working in pro sports escapes this. I've been harassed by dudes just sitting in stands.

I wasn't quite sure where to put this one. I thought maybe the family was vegan and they fed him meat, or there was an allergy issue the friend didn't consider. So not all that surprising they'd be upset. Then I read the question in full, and apparently people still have the capacity to surprise me (lest anyone ask, yes I have met the public) Help! I Can’t Believe My Son’s Friend Fed Him Indian Food Without Calling Me First. |

Now I kind of want a collage of celebrity rapists in prison garb and for it to be shared far and wide.

Civic group demands Suga's apology for Japan's wartime sex slaveryFor those of you not up to date on Korean Pop music or East Asian politics this one requires minor explanation. Suga, is the nom de guerre of one of the beautiful boys in the global phenom that is BTS. Their exploits are widely covered in the press here so when I saw that headline I assumed that he'd made some REALLY off the cuff remarks or something before remembering that the new prime minister of Japan is also named Suga and civic groups in South Korea wanting the prime minister of Japan to apologize for his nation's past war crimes is something civic groups in South Korea routinely demand the prime minister of Japan do. So there you go, a headline that was surprising and then unsurprising.

I'm not sure I remembered that Suga was the new prime minister's name. So, I too first read this and immediately thought of the BTS performer. Was very glad to have your explanation.

Every time someone comments on the band BTS I momentarily confuse it with the serial killer BTK and for 2 seconds am bewildered (more than usual)
