Vinicius Jr. once again found himself at the center of controversy following Real Madrid’s 1–0 win over Villarreal. The Brazilian forward started the match on the bench but became the main talking point after having a goal disallowed for pulling Saliba’s hair, an incident that resulted in a straight red card. According to reports, the sending-off will also rule him out of the upcoming Clásico against Barcelona.

After the match, Vinicius apologized to his teammates and Real Madrid fans on social media. However, he also made his frustration with Spanish referees clear by sharing an Instagram Story featuring a compilation of incidents in which he believes he was unfairly booked or sent off.

The post, shared from an account that supports the Brazilian, questioned the disciplinary decisions against him and accused Spanish referees of being a “mafia,” stating: “And Vinicius is always the one who gets a yellow or red card. What a disgrace, what a mafia!” Vinicius added three smiling-face emojis, appearing to endorse the message and suggesting that he believes referees are unfairly targeting him.

The incident adds to the ongoing controversy surrounding Vinicius and Spanish refereeing, with the Brazilian once again publicly questioning the treatment he receives from officials.

Think about the kind of question you see on Reddit: "How do I approach a woman without making her uncomfortable? I want to make it clear that I'm safe and that I'm approaching her respectfully."

And the responses are often basically, "You shouldn't approach women at all." Which, okay, that's a worldview you can have. But then there are the people who say you can approach, followed by so many restrictions and conditions that it's basically impossible to figure out when you're actually supposed to do it.

Then you get the borderline-trolling responses: "Don't worry, if she likes you, she'll approach you." Which, come on.

The funny part is what this does to the men who are actually taking all of this seriously. If you're already self-conscious about approaching women because you're worried about being perceived as creepy, eventually you will just conclude that it's not worth trying.

Meanwhile, the men who continue approaching women in public are going to disproportionately be the ones who aren't concerned with following all of these norms around approaching women.

Vinicius shares a compilation of his “unfair” bookings on Instagram, accusing Spanish referees of being a “mafia” and implying that they’re personally biased against him.

Which highest-grossing movie of all time was the best?

Digger was originally planned as a Netflix movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio, but it was scrapped for being too similar to Don’t Look Up. Around the same time, WB had also passed on another Tom Cruise project: a Doug Liman-directed underwater movie with a 270M budget.

Digger opens with 8M in the US and another 12M overseas, bringing its global total to 20M. With a 180M budget, it’s on track to become one of the biggest box-office bombs of all time.
