Having a bad day? Here's the exact moment Charlie Brown adopted Snoopy around 75 years ago. The Peanuts comic strip, created by Charles M. Schulz, first debuted on October 2, 1950, and quickly became one of the most influential and beloved comic series in history. Centered around the gentle, anxious character Charlie Brown, the strip explored themes of childhood, failure, friendship, and quiet resilience. On that very first day, Charlie Brown’s imaginative beagle Snoopy also appeared, originally depicted as a more realistic dog before evolving into the iconic, whimsical personality fans know today. His introduction alongside Charlie Brown in 1950 effectively marked the beginning of their lifelong companionship, making 2025 the 75th anniversary of their debut together. 🎥: Snoopy Come Home (1972)

The Peanuts Movie was basically made as the swan song for Peanuts as a franchise and to celebrate Charles Schulz as a whole. It was the last major project before WildBrain/Sony Music Japan got joint ownership of the franchise, and all the new stuff gets sent to Apple TV+ hell.

2000 days ago... the last ever Salah was led directly in front of the Ka'bah. The last ever Imam to lead from the Ka'bah, was Sheikh Yasir Al Dawsary. After that, the Imam led the Salah in multiple places, but not in front of the Ka'bah. #makkah

Trump just revealed one of the last things Charlie Kirk ever said to him...and it was about his hometown: Chicago. “Raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Charlie was filled with the patriotic spirit from his youth.” “He was an all-American in everything he did.” “One of the last things he said to me is; ‘Please Sir, save Chicago.’” “We’re going to do that. We’re going to save Chicago from horrible crime.”

Wow, Peanuts really made a Franklin centric special. If you know the significance of his existence in comic strip history, this was a long time coming. Already this trailer made me choked up. A big Black History Month win.

Yesterday, the child Abdul Rahman Saleh, aged 3, was injured in the bombardment by occupation aircraft on the Hussein family's house (Umah family house) in Al-Bureij refugee camp. Abdul Rahman was wounded in the head, his mother was martyred, and his brother Adam was seriously injured and is currently in intensive care. Abdul Rahman, his mother, and his brother Adam fled from Jabalia refugee camp in the north of the Strip to Al-Bureij in the central Gaza Strip, while their father remained in the north of the Strip. Imagine the pain of Ahmad Saleh, who is in the north of the Strip, bidding farewell to his wife Noor, who was martyred, and his children, one of whom is in intensive care, while they are in the central Gaza Strip. Abdul Rahman wakes up every minute searching for his mother. What do we say to Abdul Rahman?!

This is one of the most repulsive stunts I've ever seen. If you see this video in your feed, don't share it. It is nothing more than a vile prank by this Deaf man. The name sign being used for Charlie Kirk is a crude reference to male genitals. When Charlie Kirk spoke about having conversations and being open to learning on this issue, he was talking about me. I changed his mind. That is what Charlie was all about. He was willing to change his mind as much as he was willing to change others' minds.
