The whole neighborhood was obsessed when I was a kid, myself included. I probably still have the cassettes stashed away somewhere that came with the dolls (that mysteriously disappeared when we moved in '88).

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

The Supreme Court just severely limited the federal courts’ ability to fight the Trump regime, taking away their authority to issue universal injunctions that block illegal policies nationwide.
This is an assault on the rule of law and proof all three branches of government are part of this regime.

The Supreme Court ruled that individual judges cannot grant nationwide injunctions, but the decision left the fate of birthright citizenship unclear under an order by President Donald Trump.

The Code of Virginia defines transition-related health care as medically necessary and prevents health insurers from discriminating against transgender people.
The SCOTUS ruling today does not change that law we passed with bipartisan support in 2020 (my bill HB 1429).
