Are we taking bets as to if the Live Feeds will be down until tomorrow night? At least Teran will get some sleep.

Apparently the plan is they'll be back up later today but they'll be on a hair trigger so if there's any talk about it they'll move to another area or block them...

Kirsten winning the next HOH would be fun.

What a mess! I hope that this does not give Paramount+ a reason to get rid of live feeds. I agree Wilson - I didn't think there was going to be an eviction and I had read, too, that there was going to be an 18th Houseguest - may be someone from the Challenge as that premieres after BB on Thursday.

I don't have the feeds, but catching up on here, (love you posters) I just read the update on Luke and I think it's best that they removed him right away since that just can't be tolerated. I do have a question if anyone can answer it, while on this subject. Why do rappers even put the n word in their videos or call one another that when it never should be used by anyone? I don't understand how such a hated slur word would be used at all in rap songs or in any conversations by the people that it is in reference to. It should not be spoken anywhere by anyone.

Good, I am glad that they did what their rules say they will, too many times they ignore them and fall back on the disclaimer for the feeds.
It's too bad Luke likes to push boundaries and found this one to be his "sword".
Maybe now we can keep Kirsten and send Cameron out instead.

Since CBS already made the statement I dont think they need to keep feeds off

Appears that some shows are handling issues better than they used to. If anyone is bored, go watch Below Deck Down Under from this week. Trigger warning on sexual stuff but they handled it really well

I wonder how Reilly will make this about her and her most difficult job as HoH?!

So Spoilergirl says feeds back later, possibly after the show.
The other spoiler account Fair Play Bella, says they will be down till tonight or possibly tomorrow.
LOL so who knows.

Variety magazine confirms that Luke was expelled. I also posted the link under the Tweets thread.

Good riddance! People don't "casually drop a racial slur" unless it's part of their everyday lexicon. We don't need those kinds on BB, or in life in general.

It will be added to her repertoire for sure. Sigh

If there is no eviction, then Reilly should be so thrilled that she got to be HOH, got the room, and a basket of goodies, didn’t have to nominate anyone, and no one went home. (Except Luke of course)
Best HOH EVER!

When the Feeds return, I wonder if they will be tie-dying shirts, working on a puzzle, or creating friendship (😉🤭) bracelets?!

Didn’t have this on my BINGO card!
Of all the HG. Luke was smug in his slurs
Bubbles. That use by rappers is often debated… and imo ignorant folk lean on that excuse to throw the slur out…

Gross. Goodbye Luke. don't let the door hit ya...

Reader, maybe others do use that as an excuse, I never thought of that, but even more important that it is not used by ANYONE so the word is off the table and not tolerated ever or by ANY race.

I wish they had an hour or two delay on the feeds so they could catch things like this and still remove the person but keep the game play going. Social media (Twitter in particular) is so horrible. There are those on Twitter that aren't even fans of the show but watch just to be able to "report" something. Even Cirie is getting some hate on there because she has said something about someone that the poster didn't like.
I'd hate to lose the feeds like on BBCan

Bubbles to respond to your questions on rappers using the “n” word they do it because they can.That does not make it right and I as a black female do not approve at all. ( I am also older, more mature as well)
Saying that word in the wrong place is going to get you in trouble and Luke proved that. Now when he hears or even thinks that word his sorry behind will cringe. No pity here.

Gentle reminder, this is not the place to have political discussions. You can discuss what happened in the BB house, but not a more far-ranging discussion on political topics (like who uses the N-word). We have a News & Views section for that. Thank you!

I just have this feeling we are not getting feeds back today. They will give them time to talk it out with no feeds. Then ask not to talk about it anymore. You can not just say DO NOT TALK ABOUT IT, they need time to process.

Not the same as a racial slur but also disconcerting are the HG's that use race to make alliances in the game. This year we have Hisam telling Jag as a brown person to a brown person they have a connection deeper than the game and Hisam will not go after Jag. Then we have the the Brown Sugar Babies alliance (Cirie, Jared, Felicia and Mecole) and Blue suggesting an alliance with Jag that does not include their ally Reilly but does include only non white members such as Jared, Jag and Blue.
I hope that one day soon just continuing to cast a diverse group of HG's will give everyone in the house a more even playing field.
