Children urged not to dress as 'ugly' villains to go trick-or-treating - as charity warns of the 'isolating' effect on youngsters with scars
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-6338483/Children-urged-not-dress-ugly-characters-Halloween.html

'I get trick-or-treaters these days and I often think, "How would I react if a kid pitched up with a big scar as part of their costume?" Do I stand there and try to talk to them about the fact they're mimicking people's conditions? Or do I just give them a pack of Haribo and send them on their way?

'Freddy Krueger was a big thing when I was little, and that made an impact: I remember lots of people dressing up as him. When people make themselves up to have burns, with all the scarring, and lots of blood, I just don't understand: what's amusing and entertaining about all that? These are people's conditions, and they're making light of people's really raw experiences.'

In 2014, following action from Changing Faces, Tesco removed a ‘Freddy Krueger’ Halloween costume from sale as a result of its offensive description: ‘With his burned face and dishevelled appearance it is no surprise that a Freddy Elm Street costume makes a unique Halloween outfit idea,' it read.

Despite campaigning against costumes, the charity is clear it does not want to cancel Halloween or stop children from having fun: 'Halloween is an important annual event, and one that excites and engages millions of children and young people – and many adults, too,' they explain. 'Changing Faces encourages this, and does not want to see an end to Halloween, or genuine, good-natured ‘ghoulish’ costumes, events and themes.'

Yes because the link is specifically the knife and not the general theme of people at an Antarctic base attacking each other.


Also, I had no idea Brimley was still alive, let alone active on twitter.

This is going to end like the Simpsons episode where the haunted house destroys itself rather than try to coexist with the Simpsons.

Dunno where else to put this: My friend is at a horse race & there's a horse named BON VOYAGE VIXI. So I'm like wait, that's not a valid Roman numeral and it turns out it means "I have lived", in other words "My life is over" or "I'm dead". Bon voyage indeed. Poor freckles, thought of racing & died.

I know for a fact that one of the previous owners of the flat I used to live in killed himself over a divorce, and not even a welcome chain rattling or door slamming.

That's because ghosts are not real.

Ghosts are a manifestation of the collective unconscious made real by our mind.

So, what I'm saying is, if you want a haunted flat, be the change you want to see in the world.

I try so hard to not buy into the whole "anyone who's vocally anti-gay is actually themselves gay" thing, it's awful and harmful, but god drat it they keep supporting the hypothesis.

It's homophobic to assume or accuse every antigay person of being secretly gay, but anyone who thinks it's important to resist the temptation or gay urges is obviously themselves feeling those urges.

And they assume everybody feels them just like they do. To them, the struggle is real.
