14 Pop Culture Halloween Costumes That Are So 2016
Screen Rant

Halloween is here and goodness, it's been an eventful 2016 so far. We got Stranger Things, and a Gilmore Girls revival (who does Rory end up with? I ~need~ to know) and also clowns. Way too many clowns. Halloween is the perfect time of the year to bring up the year's ups and downs, here are what are going to be the most popular choices of 2016.

1. Harley Quinn and The Joker

Expect to see the Joker and Harley Quinn all over the freaking place--Instagram, twitter, literally all over. This will probably be the couple's costume choice of 2016.

2. Eleven from Stranger Things

This Netflix hit show of Stranger Things will be sure to inspire multiple variations of costumes. Better go buy your waffles at the store now before they run out!

3. Harambe

Because 2016 is the year of memes, you'll probably see someone dressed up as Harambe. Harambe (may he rest in peace) was the hero that died a tragic death. This will be especially popular among the teenagers, mostly likely male, of course.

4. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton

I mean, is there anything positive I can say about this? Let's move on.

5. Beyoncé (from Lemonade, obviously)

Beyoncé's literally legendary album, Lemonade, set fire to 2016's music (see above for photographic evidence). I wouldn't be surprised to see people dressed in a mustard yellow dress holding a bat.

6. Leonardo Dicaprio's First Oscar

Afters years of being denied an Oscar, poor Leo finally got what he wanted. You can dress up as Leo carrying around an Oscar, or you can dress up as the Oscar. Or you could dress as Leo, and your friend could be the Oscar. The options are infinite.

7. Damn Daniel

This fool got famous for wearing white vans. Simplest Halloween costume achieved by wearing white vans. Done.

8. Olympic Athletes

Rio 2016 was amazing for our Olympic athletes, like seriously USA's women gymnastics team, daaaaayyyummm. Unless you were Ryan Lochte, yikes.

9. The Gilmore Girls

The revival of Gilmore Girls is sure to bring a slew of Rorys and Loreleis and lots of coffee to the table.

10. Ghostbusters

October weather has got nothing on these jumpsuits.

11. Deadpool

This costume is available for men, women, and children. A whole Deadpool family walking around sounds kinda awesome, honestly.

13. Clowns

THIS COSTUME IS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO SOULS AND ARE EVIL, WE HATE THESE PEOPLE.

14. Ken Bone

So, instead of clowns, may I offer this beautiful costume choice of Ken Bone?

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
