15 Halloween costume ideas

Is it too early to do this? Maybe. But I usually end up waiting until the last minute to think of one, so maybe this will help.

  1. Karen Kilgariff from My Favorite Murder. This would work best if I could get a friend to be Georgia Hardstark, but mostly it would just be fun to be allowed to talk about true crime the whole night.
  2. Chance the Snapper. Never turn down a chance to be an alligator/crocodilian.
  3. Lizzie Borden. I think I'd pretty much just need a fake ax and then creepily say the rhyme in people's ears.
  4. An alpaca farmer. I saw an inflatable alpaca on Amazon and I want a reason to buy it.
  5. Nailed It contestant. I have a Nicole Byer shirt (well I will when it arrives) and then I can put on an apron, a gold baker's cap, and carry around ugly dessert. I think I'd be quite popular.
  6. A nightmare. I think this would involve dark clothing, creepy makeup, and a pillow.
  7. Impeachment. Not 100% sure what this would look like, but maybe I could carry around a bunch of peaches.
  8. Pumpkin spice. I would likely cover myself in as many labels of pumpkin spice products as I can find. Or maybe I'd try and parody a Spice Girls outfit.
  9. Bureaucracy. I think I would be covered in paperwork and I would hand out forms and red tape throughout the night.
  10. Mannequin. Honestly, I have this idea because I find them terrifying. I would paint myself pale and find a very catalog-y outfit. I would also freeze at random points in time.
  11. Medusa. Why wouldn't snake hair be fun?
  12. The Try Guys. I'd need 3 buddies, but this could be a very fun group costume.
  13. Velma. I do want to do a Scooby Doo gang group costume at some point in time.
  14. Another democratic candidate. By Halloween, this may not work as well, but I thought it could be funny to pretend to be yet another candidate. And honeslty, how many would people know I wasn't one?
  15. Deanna Troi. She was one of my favorite Star Trek: The Next Generation characters growing up and I think her outfit wouldn't be too hard.

15 facts I learned from a random Wikipedia article

Original prompt: click on "Random Wikipedia Article" and write about whatever comes up (you can try 3 times and pick your favorite). For the record, I got Alejandro Estivill , Fencing at the 2011 Pan American Games – Women's épée , and Benjamin F. Jonas . I chose Benjamin F. Jonas because it was the longest of the three entries and it had a photo. He was born in Kentucky, moved to Illinois as a kid, and went to college and spent the rest of his life in Louisiana Jonas's father was a merchant and lawyer His father knew Lincoln (like they were real buds) Despite this, Jonas sided with the confederacy Not only did he side with the confederacy, but he joined the Confederate army and rose to the rank of major He went to University of Louisiana (now Tulane) Jonas was Jewish (I didn't know there were Jewish senators who served the Confederacy) He was the second Jewish U.S. Senator from Louisiana and the third Jewish Senator overall Jonas was the first Ashkenazi Jewish US...

Origin story or first issue of a superhero whose super power is geometry

Arya sat in history class and was bored. She longed to get to geometry, where things made more sense. She liked geometry so much that she had joined the math team to be able to do it more. Okay, there was also the extra time with her friends who loved math as much as she did, but some of the appeal was just the math itself. Finally the bell rang and Arya had four minutes to get to her geometry class. She passed right by the chemistry class next door where her least favorite teacher was conducting experiments. He needed to be more careful, thought Arya. The teacher had once exploded a glass beaker and not on purpose. Arya took her seat and excitedly pulled out her notebook. It was her favorite color: hot pink. She assigned her notebook and folder colors in ways that felt right to her. And since geometry was her favorite subject, she made her notebook and folder for it her favorite color. As the teacher started to go over the most common mistakes from the last quiz, Arya could've swo...

Color palette

Original prompt: "Google "color palette," pick one, and write something inspired by it." I actually Googled "color palette public domain" to be sure I could use it and found the image on this post. I used the "floral" section for my inspiraiton. The soft sunlight somehow didn't dim the shine of the fireflies. Such it was in the fae realm. Fern loved this time of day in the faewild where it wasn't quite day, but it was far from night. Fern frolicked alone in the glade as she was want to do. It didn't matter to her that her laughter carried itself alone on the breeze; she was content. She wasn't sure how long she'd been alone as she watched the suns begin to set, but it was pleasant in its own way. But then, she heard a noise. It wasn't the noise of leaves on the wind or twigs snapping from some comforting creature. It was the noise of someone approaching with grim determination. Fern wasn't sure how to ready herself to ...
