This year has been a dumpster fire of deplorable decisions from our Dorito in Chief, and when is a better time to celebrate these failures than the creepiest day of the year: Halloween. Put away your witch's hat and suit up in one of these eight timely DIY costumes.

1. A Little Red Hen

Throw on your chicken suit and have your best friend spray paint you red! This Halloween, we're thanking the owners and staff of the Little Red Hen for taking a stand against injustice and bigotry! As for how to get the red spray paint off your skin, we'll get back to you on that…

2. Jared Kushner

Pop on a suit 2 sizes too small, add a simpering grin, and remain mute throughout this festive evening. Daddy's boy who?

3. Melania Trump

No, no, no, for this Halloween you don't need to be Einstein when you're dressing as quite possibly the most insensitive and callous First Lady to walk through the halls of the White House. Look under your sink for a body-sized trash bag and grab your paint. In big letters, spell out "I Really Don't Care. Do U?" Flip the bag over and cut out two eye holes. Slide the bag over your head and be best!!

4. Kirstjen Nielson

Giphy

Who knew evil could take a name and a face? Go to a party store and pick up the first ghoul mask you see. Any ghoul costume will work to capture the soulless essence of the Secretary of Homeland Security.

5. A Trump Supporter

You've seen them around, and every time, you wonder how anyone could get more oblivious. Grab your red hat and misspelled political sign and you're ready to go.

6. Space Force Soldier

You've been dressing like a character from Star Wars since you were 3, but now you can be a real Jedi thanks to Donald Trump's Space Force. For this costume, all you need is some camo and your Buzz Lightyear space helmet and you're ready to take flight. May the space force be with you.

7. Golden Shower

This story is old news, but like the beer of champagne, if you leave it for a while and come back to it, it makes you sick to your stomach and full of regret. This look will take a little more effort, but if you like crafts, and the chore strikes your fancy, pick up a hula-hoop and tie yellow streamers around the circumference. Attach suspenders to either side of the hoop and slide them over your shoulders. Thanks, Trump, for your waterfall of costume ideas.

8. Donald Trump

We've all seen the "Donald Trump Make-up Tutorial" where you coat your face in a fine layer of Cheeto dust and pucker your lips to resemble a dog's bottom. But this year, try something different. Strap in because this one will get messy! In a large bowl, mix together 3 bags of Doritos, 2 jars of immigrant tears, 1 egg, and your dignity. Place it in the freezer until it reaches the temperature of Ivanka's heart and apply with a large makeup brush. A suit is optional, but a red tie is a must. Just remember to wash it off before midnight to prevent permanent damage and emotional scarring.

Halloween can't come soon enough and the sooner it comes, the sooner the Midterm elections come! And remember, not voting this fall is as bad as voting for Trump! If you're not registered to vote already or you're not quite sure, sign up here!!!!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.

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.
