This fifth grader’s baked potato costume is better than whatever you’ve planned for Halloween

Halloween is fast approaching and while you may think your planned costume’s impressive, there’s a very good chance it won’t top this fifth grader who dressed as a baked potato.
Reddit user seal2781, a 24-year-old named Celia, recently shared a throwback Halloween picture from 2004 — the year she followed her heart and dressed as a baked potato wrapped in foil with a li’l pat of butter on top. Precious! Delicious! All around wholesome!
The costume is one of the closest things we’ve seen to absolute Halloween perfection, and the kind of ensemble we should all strive to put together this time of year. If you’re having doubts about how great it is, we’re not exaggerating. See for yourself… Read more…

Next time you need to save a life, the The All-American Rejects can help. Yeah, you read that properly.
It just so happens that “Gives You Hell,” the band’s scathing revenge anthem of 2008, is 100 beats per minute — the exact beat needed to perfectly time CPR compressions. What luck!
NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital figured out this nifty little trick, and decided to compile an entire Spotify playlist of other hot jams to help music lovers near and far successfully perform CPR.
Spoiler alert: It’s absolutely phenomenal. Read more…

A Twitter convo about self-appreciation was the best thing on the internet this week

This is One Good Thing, a weekly column where we tell you about one of the few nice things that happened this week.
This week, a bunch of people had a really nice conversation about change, self-acceptance, and personal growth. On Twitter. (Yes, that is possible.)
It all started when writer and 112BK host Ashley Ford posed a question to her followers on Sunday. “What’s something you hated about yourself as a kid or teenager that you now consider a strength?” she asked.

Lady Gaga is so good at folding things

This is One Good Thing, a weekly column where we tell you about one of the few nice things that happened this week.
Lady Gaga is a woman of many talents, obviously. She’s a singer, a performer, a songwriter, an actor — a bonafide star in pretty much every sense of the word.
Also, she is so good at folding things.
I first realized Gaga’s incredible folding prowess during the press conference for A Star Is Born at the Toronto International Film Festival last weekend. Before asking a question, one reporter handed Gaga a t-shirt from his outlet, The Queer Network. Gaga accepted the offering gracefully, because she is a movie star. Then, before she continued to speak into her microphone (also gracefully), she folded the shirt with such precision and skill, I gasped. Gasped! Read more…

Love trumps hate — and so does a good layer of paint.
Lisa Licata and Sherry Lau are a same-sex couple living in Penn Hills, Pennsylvania. For years, they’ve claimed that their homophobic neighbors, Ron Makay and Iolanda Wieczorkowski, have taunted them with hateful slurs, even going so far as to shoot their dog with an air rifleThe neighbor denies the latter allegation, though Makay has been charged by police with animal cruelty.
After the slurs first intensified, Licata and Lau decided to paint their fence rainbow in proud defiance. That didn’t stop the neighbors from complaining. Read more…
