Halloween is when grown adults can play dress-up and not be judged for it. Here is a list of some original costume ideas to add a little touch of flare to your All Hallow's Eve. Remember to enjoy the holiday safely as you can.

1. Sushi roll

California roll, shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, just don't forget a side of ginger and wasabi!

2. Doodlebob

Mihoy minoy.

3. White Claw

Ain't no laws. . .

4. Veruca Salt

"I want it now!"

5. A Croc

A fashionable, comfortable shoe. Who wouldn't want to be a Croc?

6. A cloud

I actually wish clouds were pillow soft and not a condensed water vapor.

7. Scarlet Witch

Wanda Maximoff is my favorite female superhero so I may be a little biased.

8. A scarecrow

Scary.

9. A flapper

Diamonds are a girl's best friend? Nah, pearls.

10. Dunkin' Donuts

You know who runs on Dunkin'? Me.

11. Scuba Steve from "Big Daddy"

"But I wipe my own ass!"

12. Shark

Baby shark, mommy shark, daddy shark.

13. Jelly Beans

As long as they're not Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

14. The Mad Hatter

We're all mad here.

15. Modern art

*chef kiss*

16. Frida Kahlo

All about the eyebrows.

17. Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Girl power to the max with a flare of horror.

18. "Coraline"-inspired doll

That movie still gives me nightmares.

19. Cruella de Vil

If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will and that's perfect for Halloween night. Bonus: have others dress as dalmatians.

20. Holy Guacamole!

I'm all about a play on words turned into a costume.

21. A nude Sim

*insert Simlish and excessive waving here*

22. Energizer battery bunny

Bang yo' drum.

23. Peacock

Sometimes, costumes are better as a couple or in a group. The following costume ideas are designated to be one of those times.

24. Alvin and the Chipmunks

It may not yet be time for a Christmas album but sure as heck let the spooky tunes play!

25. Trophies

'Cause you're a winner.

26. Powerpuff Girls

Bubbles is a favorite of mine, personally.

27. Rum and coke

Any drink combination, run with it.

28. Stanley Cup and hockey player

I prefer the Boston Bruins but it's whatever you're into. Switch out for different sports as well.

29. Girls from "Clueless"

Ugh, as if!

30. Power Rangers

Colors/season can vary. Love me some Mighty Morphin', though.

31. Rock, Paper, Scissors

Shoot.

It's never too early to start planning your Halloween costume so get crackin' on that.

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.

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.
