The twist should be “hey guys, while we filming something special for you viewers, the ScaryVerse replaced one of our houseguests with a former houseguest who didn’t get to stay very long—ladies & gentlemen, here she is—JODI, from BB14! She only spent 1 day here, let’s see if she can beat her previous record!” And they never have to mention Luke anymore.

Monsters & Critics website writer Ryan DeVault speculates that Big Brother may have told the houseguests there would be no eviction, so they have to keep the feeds off so we don't hear it from them.

Catching up this morning and happy to see they dealt with Luke immediately. Below Deck Down Under this week was so disturbing but it needed to be shown. Aesha was so triggered and totally did the right thing going to the Captain. Plus it showed it can happen with a male or female predator. What could have happened had the cameras not been there is so scary. Reality tv can be a learning experience. Never thought I’d say that! 😂

Anyone watching Survive the Raft on Discovery? Really interesting concept that I am loving. One of the participants said all white people are racist and you have to decide where on the scale you are. Insightful statement that got interesting reactions.

The consensus I am reading out there is that the feeds will be down until after tonight’s show, so “Oppenheimer” it is! I am half happy to take a feed break, and half annoyed that once again, the viewers are penalized for BB/CBS’ bad casting decisions.

Pinknana, that looks like a cool show. I watched the first 10 minutes and will watch the rest later. I started a thread for it here. Survive the Raft

Yes BB has given us many problematic HG's. In recent seasons we have had Sam, Paloma and Frenchy. Why? The broadcast show made Reilly look really good when she has been a crying, self absorbed, self pity party mess for at least 6 days. My pet peeve on casting is the HG's that want to play an "honest" clean game. My second pet peeve are the HG's that believe by winning the game they are advancing some important interest for society. Just no. This is a cheesy Reality TV show. Come to win. Come to have fun. Leave your "honesty", complaints about the state of society and politics at the door.

Hwest, the “honesty and integrity” thing cracks me up. It’s like going to poker night and never bluffing. Because…..integrity!

So maybe both Kristen and Luke are gone. I did find others in social media talking about the fact that she had also used the word. Is zero tolerance just that, or can some say it and others can not. I think this is a bigger mess than maybe we know. I can find no one who has a time stamp and day so I can watch for myself. Enjoy the movie Rosem!!

Ugh...my personal lap top decided to die last night, so I'm going laptop shopping after work. I have a black screen of death. And I like having a 17" screen laptop - and a dedicated number panel on the right. I work on a 15", so maybe I can compromise on size. Work computer has the dedicated number panel, but considered an engineering computer based on all the work apps and files stored, etc. I looked through our company discount on Dell - yeah, work computer is out of my price range. Dell Precision 3571. OK - back to your regularly scheduled Big Brother - I just had to whine.

I heard her say it too, Mamapors. It was when they were up on the balcony outside.

Rabernet, I have been very happy with my HP laptop, I think I even got a 19 inch screen or maybe it's a 17, I just know I got the biggest offered, LOL. I have the number pad over to the right of the keyboard and I like it very much. You might find a good deal right now with all the back to school sales.

I doubt they’d let k go for using the n word. Black people have every right to take that word and use it any way they see fit. Its not apples to apples. White people use the word in a derogatory way and slave owners used it as a threat. The right to use the word is up to the individual black person. It’s not up the whites to dictate how that word is used. Very insulting to double down on how blacks use that word. If bb evicts her due to using the word I’d be disappointed.

Finally able to post was have some weird issues had to reset my password. On the topic of Luke I am very happy he was expelled for using the slur. On the other hand if there is a no tolerance policy Kirsten needs to be expelled as well. Otherwise Luke have a good Lawsuit on his hands

If the House rules states "no racial slurs", that would apply to everyone. No exceptions.

Bbnut and others: Kristen and Felicia were up on the outdoor balcony Monday night around 11:40 p.m. and following. If you can go back and replay that time, it might help you find it.

I had a previous post on the slur and I agree that if it's in the rules, production can't pick and choose...anyone that says it should be expelled. Again I never understand how it can be hated when Luke said it, yet tolerated if Kristen said it. To me it is wrong no matter who says it.

So the post on Twitter is one I didn't see, live. I heard her say it on the balcony, outside, the other afternoon/evening, while she was talking to Jared. So, that makes TWICE she said it.

Hello, I’d like to share my BB 25 thoughts with u. As u all know what’s going on right now with Luke’s situation as he is removed from BB house due his racial slur. I’d like to mention that there is no Deaf-mute slur allowed either in BB house since u know that Matt is very hard of hearing. He wears a hearing aid on right ear. If BB contestant says Deaf-mute slur then that person needs to be removed from BB house as well. I’ll report to CBS BB. No tolerance for that. Of course you all know that I’m Deaf. I’m proud of Matt playing as Hard of hearing/Deaf BB contestant first time on BB. It’s not easy for him. He speaks well and much better than me. LOL!! I speak only few words with gestures for hearing to understand me. One thing, we have common is that we can’t understand in a group but best is one by one. I wears hearing aid on right ear. I can hear with my hearing aid on people talking but do I understand them, no. I can hear the speaker with my hearing aid on but won’t understand person’s voice on speaker unless captions display would show then I’d understand to read it. Anyway, I’d like to see the eviction show go on tonight instead no eviction show since Cirie is an extra houseguest which she can take Luke’s place. I completely disagreed for having Cirie being on BB 25 because she’s past Survivor contestant. Huge disadvantage for new BB 25 contestants. I rather see the past BB contestant being 17th as BB 25 contestant than Cirie. If I’m BB 25 contestant, I’d immediately nominate Cirie next week and get her out. Hope to see live feeds back after show tonight. Enjoy watching tonight!
