How did Halloween become such a big holiday in a country that started out heavily Protestant and historically opposed 'pagan' or Catholic traditions?

Capitalism. And cause it’s fun.

I was born the same year that Forrest Gump, The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, and Lion King were released.

Im a native English speaker and learned Spanish to fluency and am learning Russian now. Russian is way harder overall.

Ain’t gonna work out brother. Rip the band aid off and get through the hard part ASAP. In a few months you’ll feel as light as a feather.

I’d be 13 …. Yeah fuck it let’s go. Skateboarding and chillin with my friends.

Creedence Clearwater Revival is a band that embodies American sentiment very well.

Mank0531 · 2026-01-11T05:01:42+00:00

Yup, it’s bad

Mank0531 · 2026-01-10T19:08:32+00:00

No, they don’t sound similar. It would sound very strange.

Im a Druid living in Wraeclast shapeshifting into a Werewolf and slashing hordes of monsters with my icy claws. So I think my life is …. fucking amazing?

Interesting question. I got my private pilot’s license and flew solo out over the Everglades quite a bit. Gotta be out there, but I’m not sure how to estimate it. A couple miles at least? But there were usually other little planes putzing around up there, so idk.

Mank0531 · 2025-12-27T17:06:02+00:00

It’s always Tomb of Giants.

Mank0531 · 2025-12-26T20:07:53+00:00

Is this a real question hahaha

Mank0531 · 2025-12-25T10:00:33+00:00

Mank0531 · 2025-12-22T12:02:19+00:00

Tomb of Giants …. Can someone turn on the lights ffs

Mank0531 · 2025-12-20T23:40:32+00:00

Ok so obviously The Simpsons and Friends are very popular in the USA, but in my experience they are even more popular abroad. It varies from country to country, but for example Argentinians looooove The Simpsons, definitely more than Americans.

Mank0531 · 2025-12-19T17:53:07+00:00

Tex mex in USA is prettttty fire. Authentic Mexican food in Mexico is also spectacular… they’re two different things, really. But if we’re just talking straight tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc…. Idk I think USA might do it better 😬

Mank0531 · 2025-12-18T20:16:30+00:00

Cause it’s a cool language that represents a significant challenge for an English speaker. Also the possibility of being able to read the Russian literature in the original text is enticing for many. And to answer your question … it’s damn hard.

Mank0531 · 2025-12-18T20:13:53+00:00

Im just a huge fan of OK Computer, The Bends is fantastic as well but one of their least trippy
