Enjoy Tonight <3

I want you all to enjoy tonight’s festivities. I want to forget the real world for one night and have fun.

If you don’t want to watch Halloween movies, and want to watch Comedy instead, do so. If you want to eat healthy instead of candy, do so. If you want worship Satan or Santa, go for it, lol.

I am planning on coming off social media, watching funny thing, no serious things or news!

Bad Me

I am so sorry! I feel like my post yesterday made people sad, oh my goodness! I apoligise. I promise it’s not a bad thing to be comfortable to be alone.

I also apologise also, my posts have not really been Halloweenie, have they? The world is falling apart, I got put back some happiness in there!

Halloween and Samhain, have got the best music.

From Classics such as “This is Halloween” to the famous or infamous “Psycho” theme. What sounds/music/theme/tunes makes you truly believe in the spirit of Halloween?

Movie Night

Every Halloween, I watch my classic favourites. Every year, I try to watch something different. Just to change it up a little bit. I usually stick with my favourites, at some point over the weekend they’ll get watched.

This year, I can’t really go out, in case I get COVID, or even a cold/flu and then cannot get my teeth out.

My favourite Halloween movies are:

  • Nightmare Before Christmas
  • Hot Fuzz
  • All the 90’s “The Addams Family”, if the show is on, I’ll watch that.
  • Beetlejuice
  • Ghostbusters
  • Death Becomes Her
  • What we do in the shadows
  • Sixth Sense
  • All the Simpsons Halloween specials.

Okay, maybe not the scariest. Real life is scary enough thank you very much.

I would love to hear what yours are!

Real Life Hell Hole

…Twitter!lol

*Long post incoming!*

Oh my god, I just wanted to write about a real life hellish experience, lol.

The funny thing about Twitter, is that it really does show the stupidest in people. It also shows how the public is actually thinking though. So either way you can’t hide. It shows off the best, and it shows off the very worst. I’m going to write about a couple of examples.

Take the appointment and re-appointment of Suella Braverman, a truly terrible person and a UK Tory. Last week she had to resign as she broke ministerial code. I don’t know and frankly don’t care about what. Just yesterday Rishi Sunak, the apparent new PM gave her the portfolio…of get this…Homeland Security. Now she has already said that it’s her dream to ship all immigrant and migrants “away”. BUT! The likes on Twitter were vastly outnumbered by the comments of how disappointed the public are.

Now I am speaking from experience that the Tory will just put this down to the “Twitter” mob. However, the USA and Australian Twitter accounts around the time of their elections. Had the same comments made, the Twitter “mob” always outnumbered the Conservatives. You can even see it now with certain Republicans twitter posts. the “likes” are either nearly the same, or the comments are higher. YET! The Twitter mob both times were right. Both the US and Australia voted out their head Conservatives parties.


Rishi Sunak to face first PMQs as Suella Braverman reappointment comes under scrutiny – UK politics live

He’s been only there for a day, lol.

The other appointments are just as terrible. Kemi Badenoch, went up for PM the first time and after she pulled out. She gave a horrible transphobic and homophobic “speech”. She has also voted AGAINST same sex marriage AND putting buffers around abortion clinics. She’s the new Equality and Women’s minister”.

Again, the Twitter mob spoken against it loudly. I also got blocked by Conservatives for Women, for stating the obvious how you check for someone’s biology. Even then, it’s not always easy to tell.

One of the BIG things I wanted to write about on here though. Is the lie that the right wing bigots are saying about Elon Musk. The “left” are not “freaking out” about Musk buying Twitter and then bringing back Trump. One, Trump has his own social media, and even Right Wingers are being cancelled all the time. Why aren’t they all there? Why are they STILL on Twitter.

Leftist are not “freaking out” either. Since Trumps been gone, nothings changed. If the Right were being cancelled all the time. Why are they still there? If Trump came back, literally nothing would change.

In fact, what the Right don’t seem to realise is that, right now, the Left are all making plans to leave Twitter. Like I don’t know how anyone can say that Twitter is a safe space for the Left, with a serious face. It’s not. If it was, none of the Trump family would still be there, Kanye would have been gone long ago and Rowling too. You’ve got all these twitter accounts, clearly trolls with clear lies. Even though Twitter has all these new fan dangle ways to report people, they don’t work and they’re not working. Except on me, lol…You’ve got TERFs, grown women, talking about the genitals of children, with no medical or health, or even Science back ground, they’re all still up there. There are SEVERAL who have posted pictures of children and sexualised the photo’s. They’re all up there.

So yeah “lefties” are getting ready to mass leave. We’re all sending each other our other social media platforms. Trump apparently said he doesn’t want to go back to Twitter. If they’re all so desperate for Trump, why are they letting him down and not going on Social Truth…Truth Social?

Focus

I NEED to focus the rest of this week to be joyful and happy. There’s enough real life Halloween out there, I don’t need to bring you or me down with it.

So let’s start with something make believe and Halloween. Before I get too unhappy again, I can’t go out and celebrate Halloween this year. Only a couple of days after Halloween, Nov the 2nd I get my teeth out, so I can’t risk getting COVID. So I am going to start the celebrations with posting some selfies of myself of when I dressed up (in Australia) for Halloweenie.

Don’t believe the hype though, I am not that skinny anymore, lol … I have the tail still, lol

This is Halloween

I am a bad Australian, no no, it’s true.

I LOVE Halloween!

I am also really desperate to write about something fun, I’m done with dumbasses over the last couple of days.

I try to make Halloween more like a Pagan festival. I enjoy the Celtic Paganism. The Halloween, America, is loosely based off the Celtic pagan festival called Samhain (pronounced “SAH- wane”). That’s get debated every single year. Let’s be honest. A lot of belief and religious systems are based off of each other.

I would love to hear if you celebrate Halloween or Samhain. If you have any traditions. Are you over America?lol

What I love the most about Samhain, is that belief October 31st is the thinnest part between this world and the “afterworld”. I know that those who have past are always with me, but I always look out a little bit more ~.^ Haha

Just a few of my favourite things…Halloween

Well first week of work down, and I had all these plans! The first night, my mum said that I looked like a zombie, haha

Which means that the last couple of days, I have been really struggling to think of anything to write. Which normally, I’d be fine with, but this is Halloween week! It’s like not having any “flow” at Christmas!

I am so tired, I just don’t want to do these blogs at the moment, haha. Excuse the lack of entertainment

I am going to be lazy and start off with a article first…

10 fun facts you didn’t know about Halloween – USA Today:
Meghan Tankersley
Editor OCTOBER 31, 2019

Long there has been debate whether or not Christianity “stole” Samhain and made it a holiday called Halloween. When large numbers of Irish people emigrated to the United States after the Great Famine in the 19th century, they carried their Christian-Pagan tradition with them, which lead to the popularity of Halloween in America today.

Jack o’lantern” comes from the Irish legend of Stingy Jack. The story goes, that Stingy Jack invited the devil to have a drink with him, but Jack didn’t want to pay for the drink, so he convinced the devil to turn himself into a coin. Instead of buying the drink, he pocketed the coin and kept it close to a silver cross in his house, preventing the devil from taking shape again. He promised to let the devil go as long as he would leave Jack alone for a year – and that if Jack died, the devil wouldn’t claim his soul. After a year, Jack tricked the devil again to leave him alone and not claim his soul. When Jack died, God didn’t want such a conniving person in heaven and the devil, true to his word, would not allow him into hell. Jack was sent off into the night with only a burning coal to light his path. He placed the coal inside a carved-out turnip and has been roaming the earth ever since.

People in Ireland and Scotland began creating their own creations of Jack’s lanterns out of turnips, beets and potatoes. The tradition traveled to the United States along with the immigrants and people began to use pumpkins, native to North America, for the lanterns instead. Some say though that in Samhain tradition, they really used human heads!

It was believed that phantoms walked the earth on the night of Samhain, so people would dress up in costumes in an effort to repel the spirits.

In the eighth century, in an effort to spread Christianity, Pope Gregory III decreed November 1 as All Saints’ Day and incorporated some of the rituals of Samhain.

Samhain was one of four major Celtic seasonal festivals, along with Imbolc, Beltane, and Lughnasadh, which occurred around 2000 years ago.

Trick-or-treating was inspired by the medieval English tradition of “souling,” which involved children going door-to-door on All Souls Day, offering prayers for residents’ deceased loved ones in exchange for food.

The fear of Halloween is called Samhainophobia.

Yummy, yummy, yummy…I’ve got food in my tummy

I also start work tomorrow!

A HUGE part of both Halloween and Samhain is…the FOOD!

Here are some food, and a recipe with them that I have actually used over the years. Since I am not a confident cook, below are all the recipes that I actually have used. I’m going to also include my recommendations.

Ghost S’mores Dip – Delish

This is clearly the easiest dish to make, and also one of the yummiest. You just generally melt some marshmallows and chocolate buds together, and use the biscuits or sweet crackers to dip with. These days you can find vegan friendly marshmallows as well. So you can make two different dips, but one vegan friendly.

Strawberry Ghosts – Delish

These are also pretty easy, because it’s just strawberries dipped in white chocolate, with little chocolate frosting for eyes. Of course though, if you’re running out of time though (sometimes the icing and the strawberries, kind of “melt” into each other), don’t worry about the eyes.

Graveyard Mousse – KidSpot: KiwiGirl

I have differed this recipe as few times. You can make the mousse yourself, or just buy the mousse (especially if you have a place that makes really nice mousse). You can put all sorts of animal lollies in it. I love getting frogs (which we have in Australia) sour worms. You can use any kind of biscuits for the Headstones, or none at all. One time I put gummy bears in the mousse, making it look like some buried them. There are body part lollies.

Monster Munch – Delish

Again, this is one that you can differ to your tastes. I suggest using a sweet and/or salty, popcorn. I would also suggest just using white chocolate, rather than milk or dark chocolate. I just found that the white chocolate just made it taste a little sweeter. You can add whatever you want as well, I usually use just candy corn, white chocolate drizzled, icing sugar and sweet and salty popcorn. In the recipe, the author suggests that you can use pretzels, M&Ms, Reese’s pieces.

Mummy Hotdogs – Homemade Interests

Now this is one of the harder recipes that I found to do, mainly because it a little fidgety. But they are a lot of fun to eat. Remember you don’t need to heat up the hotdogs in water, you wait until they are wrapped, and placed into the oven. They cook in the oven, with the dough wrapped around. Of course, you can choose whatever dip you want. The usual sauces and condiments go well with this recipe.

I love to drink too, all drinks…except jagerbombs and that horrible water, what’s it called, it’s got all bubbles in it…Oh, and that aniseed stuff. I have tried experiments over the years, but I cannot get drinks right.
