What Makes a Great Halloween Song - That Eric Alper Every October, something magical happens. The air gets colder, pumpkins glow brighter, and suddenly even the happiest songs sound a little haunted.

It doesnt stop there. Did you know "zombies" are an African creation?

Zombie comes from the Haitian creole "zanbi," which itself comes from the Kikongo word "nzambi" that translates to "spirit of a dead person.'

It embodied the spirit of haitian slavery. Body is alive, the soul is not

Not enough is said about how awesome Rah Digga is in Thirteen Ghosts. Her response is exactly what I was thinking in the theater

Every year since 1996, y'all. This and Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight.

I think subconsciously the reason why i loved a lot of classic rock is because of the Black influence. I’m listening to “Gimme Shelter“ right now only because of the Gert Town legend Merry Clayton (hope she is doing well).

We need more joy in the world and @flavorflav.bsky.social’s unbridled enthusiasm fills my heart every time.

I spoke with my dad yesterday, and he gave me some good advice I wanted to share. Don't forget to find joy amid the madness right now. Joy is resistance, joy is nourishing, joy is life-giving.

Even if it’s silent, don’t let them take your ability to experience joy from you. Protect your peace.

I love Rebecca DOWN. Known as Dollar Tree Dinners.

Her “Meal in a Bag” is meant to provide ppl with a complete meal that is $8 or less, is shelf stable, & can be made without access to a full kitchen. I love this as a direct aid option. Good for neighbors & elders who can’t/wont go to a pantry.

I have a very bad feeling about this...

Grocery store prices are legit insane right now. We do a lot of shopping at Costco because we have room to store, for example, a 25 pound bag of flour or a pallet of chicken thighs.

Costco prices have gone up, but looking at regular grocery store prices? It’s bananas! (Which are also expensive.)

These is what Halloween costumes used to look like back in the day thanks to one company that dominated the production of them. The masks were plastic, had tiny nose holes that you couldn't breathe through, and had the creepiest eyes.
