Tried to give The Ghost and Mr. Chicken a shot but my god Don Knotts’s constant screaming and babbling is so off putting

I felt my brain give a sigh of relief when I changed the channel

Once in a blue moon, it’s super rare, but they give these terrible characters on Bonanza redemption arcs within an episode

I’m just like this person was terrible not five minutes ago. Hes suddenly a good person? Get out of here with that.

They’re really scrambling after finding out they only have a 30% approval rating

Giant banner on the HUD homepage blames the “radical left” for the impending government shut down.

The Republicans have the majority.

This isn’t the fault of the left.

It’s also deeply concerning that this language is appearing on ANY official government websites.

Screenshot of the HUD website with a red and white banner that reads The Radical Left are going to shut down the government and inflict massive pain on the American people unless they get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands. The Trump administration wants to keep the government open for the American people.

Breaking news: The Trump administration’s push to arrest and deport international students for their pro-Palestinian activism was illegal, a federal judge ruled, calling the crackdown a “truly scandalous and unconstitutional suppression of free speech.”

Trump administration illegally targeted pro-Palestinian protesters, judge rules

The efforts to detain and deport noncitizen activists earlier this year represented an unconstitutional infringement on the First Amendment, the ruling says.

On season 9!

Bonanza had the audacity to hire a new cast member and dress him like Adam. THE GALL.

I will say one thing.. their reuse of stock footage makes me wonder if I watched this already. I forgot where I left off lol

Yesterday, my partner mentioned that there is a bonanza DVD set on sale and he was wondering if I wanted it

Well to see if I want to buy something I have to finish it watching it first right? So I’m back on my Bonanzathon. It’s been a while.

It’s too hot & uncomfortable, but if I turn on the fan, then it’s too cold. I wish there was some kind of middle ground.

I hate September-November temperature wise

I love to debate and argue. I'm an Indigenous woman and it's like in my blood to challenge everything and everyone! 🤣

But there are things I refuse to "debate", my existence as a Disabled Queer Native Woman, the basic rights of others to life, liberty and justice.

🚨If you have kids/young people at HBCUs make sure they are aware of what’s happening. These “debate me bros” plan to tell travel to more HBCUs and are looking to do nothing but cause trouble.

HBCU students run MAGA debate me bros agitators from Tennessee State campus

Today @FearlessDebates tour tabled at an HBCU, Tennessee State University and after 10 minutes a literal riot erupted.

I wish the listening device in my phone would understand that the Lego hobby was a FAIL and stop showing me ads for them lol

I wish there was a way to let people know. I don’t have Covid.

I’m just a very phlegmy person in general nowadays lol

“Mercy deaths.” “Special wards.” Nazi medicine cloaked mass murder in euphemisms. The first gas chambers weren’t built at Auschwitz — they were built in hospitals.

The forgotten history of disabled children under Nazism

Hitler's first order of mass murder wasn't about Jews.

A reminder to follow journalists, today and every day.

If you say you're going to have disability representation in an article on a disability topic, interview a disabled person, not a non-disabled parent. Their perspectives don't count as disability representation.
