ASCSU talks leadership, 2020 budget changes By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt

“When you read these words, I want you to think if you are meeting their expectations. Because if you are, you’re meeting the expectations of all CSU students.” PAMELA NORRIS SLICE DIRECTOR

Norris said she wants to encourage the senators to spend their days in the organization building their team and putting themselves out there to get to know other people. “Really get to know the people on your team,” Norris said. “What are their stories?” Norris showed the senators a picture of the front page of The Collegian in March 2016.

The fifth session of the 50th senate of the Associated Students of Colorado State University began with the swearing-in of new senators and associates. This included one new member to the ASCSU senate. When guest speakers were introduced, Pamela Norris, the director of the Student Leadership, Involvement and Community Engagement office, talked about enhancing students’ experience on campus. Norris said she has worked with ASCSU before to achieve change on campus. Norris also thanked the senators for attending senate meetings and serving the student body, especially during the pandemic. She said ASCSU senators are gaining strong leadership experience, and she wants to give them advice. “It’s our job as professional staff to teach you, encourage you and help you become the people you want to be to create change in whatever community

you want to live in,” Norris said. “We want to create experiences here that will help you with your competitive advantage.”

page shows a picture of a senator who had just reintroduced and passed the ASCSU Diversity Bill. “This is a significant moment in ASCSU history,” Norris said. “This was a turning point. This took a lot of courage and a lot of students to fight for this bill to be passed.” Norris said that, while it has grown more diverse, she still wants the senators to listen to others and think about what more they can do. Norris also talked about a student demand letter that was sent to CSU last year. One of the demands asked for more visibility regarding ASCSU. “For them to include this in their list of demands, I think, is a gift,” Norris said. “When you read these words, I want you to think if you are meeting their expectations. Because if you are, you’re meeting the expectations of all CSU students.” After the guest speakers concluded, Hannah Taylor, president of ASCSU, said they are currently working on U+2 and asked if any senators were interested in getting involved.

“We really want as many engaged people as possible to work on a strategy to get this done as soon as possible,” Taylor said. Senator Brandon Lowry from the Pride Resource Center said he is working on changing the vocabulary that is normalized and highlighting what is offensive when it comes to the LGBTQ+ community. Senator Diego Tovar said he is working to get the Diversity and Inclusion Conference onto the floor. He encouraged any senators to get involved with the bill. After senate reports, Taylor went over some budget issues with the senate. Taylor said that the budget needs to be rearranged this year because of the mishaps caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The delay of the election caused some money to be inherited from last semester, and some approved spending can’t be used anymore, such as the budget for Grill The Buffs. Taylor said the budget will be $100,000 this year instead of

$50,000. Taylor also discussed the University travel grant money. The budget was lowered this year because CSU is not allowing out-of-state travel for University-related business. Senator Lizzy Osterhoudt expressed concern about students who live out of state and might need to get home. However, there are no restrictions from the University placed on personal travel. Jess Dyrdahl, a staff member in the SLiCE office, said it is unlikely for students to get approval to travel. As of now, students need to get approval from the Pandemic Preparedness Team for University travel. Osterhoudt said she is working on a bill that will allow Indigenous students to go home, but Dyrdahl said that if the bill is approved, it doesn’t mean those students will be reimbursed for their travel. After final announcements, the senate adjourned with the singing of the CSU Fight Song. Ceci Taylor can be reached at news@collegian.com.

SCIENCE

The science behind spooks: Why we’re scared and why we love it By Sam Moccia @SamuelMoccia

Leading up to Halloween, few things guarantee more goosebumps and jump scares than horror films. They are the backbone of the spooky fall season, and in any other year void of 2020’s COVID-19 restrictions, scream-craving fans everywhere would normally flock to cinemas during the season. In 2017, one of the biggest years in horror film history, box offices collected over $733 million from moviegoers looking to be terrified in the theater, according to The New York Times. Even in the shadow of the pandemic that’s shifted or outright canceled so many fall festivities, 2020 still promises the tradition of horror films, with dozens of new horror movies released this month for fans of the genre to enjoy from the safety of home. But all the affinity for this frightening category of films begs some odd questions: Why do people fear something they know isn’t real, and why do fans enjoy the horror experience, returning to a genre which promises such unpleasant results year after year? The question of why we fear is one familiar to psychologists and social scientists. Biologically, the most import-

ant job of the human brain is to keep us alive, explained Dr. Martin Rossman, who writes about human anxiety and stress impacts on the body, in an interview with HuffPost. Evolutionarily, fear and worry played an immense role in ensuring that our ancestors stayed vigilant. But as to why people fear such specific things, even irrational things, is another question. According to the Mayo Clinic, both genetics and negative experiences can massively contribute to the root causes of someone’s specific fears and phobias. The research of Jessica Witt, a psychology professor at Colorado State University who leads the Action-Specific Perception Lab at CSU, reveals a unique, key component of fear: Someone’s personal abilities to overcome something dictate how they perceive it and how afraid they are of it. “Archers see the target as bigger,” Witt said. “People who do parkour, they see walls as shorter. But it’s not just your ability to act on an object but also the object’s ability to act on you.” But the question still remains. Why do horror movies, viewed in secure spaces and out of reach of reality, scare people so much? Witt suggests that part of fear may be intrinsic — that something core to humans dictates their fears and that no matter the skill they

reach, that fear remains. “No matter how good I get at rock climbing, I’m still scared of heights,” Witt said. “And even though I know that rope’s gonna catch me, I’m still scared to let go.” That being said, why people keep returning to the horror genre despite the near certainty of horrid feelings soon to follow seems to be a true mystery. “It’s such a vexing, paradoxical category of production,” said Scott Diffrient, a CSU film and media studies professor. “Anyone looking in from the outside would be curious as to why we would (want to) submit ourselves to something that promises fear and anxiety.” Biologically, Diffrient theorizes that the genre fills a niche that few others do: intense, unavoidable emotional release. “It’s also a (kind of) cathartic means of purging ourselves of fear and anxiety in a relatively safe way,” Diffrient said. “No one watching a horror film is going to be stabbed by a slasher, but we can, through these allegorical narratives, put ourselves into the position of a victim.” Those aforementioned evolutionary traits of worry and fear are essential to humans, and Diffrient suggests that in society today, adrenaline-pumping, terror-inducing experiences are less common, so horror films stimulate an ingrained part of the brain.

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY CHARLIE DILLION THE COLLEGIAN

“The raised flesh or goosebumps, the scream that escapes your throat unintentionally, the perspiration that beads up on your skin — all of these are (kind of) evidence of that biological defense system,” Diffrient said. “Horror films are a way to help keep that in working order, in a sense.” Diffrient thinks the importance of horror films is immensely social too and that the impact of the genre goes well beyond what people assume at face value. While many see horror as a recent development in literature, the origins of horror are much older and deeply connected in both style and themes to spoken folklore. “In almost all cases, those monsters (in horror films) need not

look realistic,” Diffrient said. “Zombies aren’t real, ... but what that zombie represents — contagion or predation — those exist in the real world.” Horror films allow people to feel the simple, adrenaline-fueled responses of their ancient biological mechanisms, Diffrient said, while still being exposed to the deeper themes and more existential dangers of the current world. So in the spooky dusks and cold nights leading up to this holiday, don’t be afraid to brave the horror — it might even serve a purpose for you and society at large beyond just scaring you senseless.

First director of livestock sustainability program announced By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt

Colorado State University has named Kim Stackhouse-Lawson as the first director of its new Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative, which was announced last December. The collaborative will work to improve livestock sustainability around the world. Stackhouse-Lawson said that the collaborative is new to form and plans to use insights from various stakeholders to address challenging sustainability topics in livestock. “When we think about our goals, I think it’s really to ensure that livestock-based protein continues to be a sustainable component of our food and natural resource system,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. Stackhouse-Lawson also said the collaborative plans to help advance the science of livestock sustainability as they go through the developmental process. “It’s really exciting to build a world-renowned program and team,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “It’s going to be difficult and a lot of work to build this. But I think that

there’s so much opportunity, and it’s so exciting to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges as it relates to food.” She said that it’s also exciting to have the opportunity to build a team that’s diverse in knowledge and perspective at CSU. Stackhouse-Lawson was one of the first students to graduate with an emphasis on livestock sustainability, she said. According to Stackhouse-Lawson, her Ph.D. is in animal biology, but she specifically studied the impacts of dairy and beef cattle on the environment; this includes greenhouse gas emissions, ammonia emissions and a variety of different air quality impacts associated with livestock production. “I also did a lot of systems modeling work,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “So actually modeling nutrient flow through the entire livestock system. I also did some work in animal welfare and animal behavior, so (it’s about) really understanding both the animals’ impact on the ecosystem but also the environment’s impact on the animals.” After graduating, she started the beef industry’s first sustainability program, in which she devel-

oped one of the largest beef sustainability research programs. She said she also started the U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Beef. Stackhouse-Lawson grew up in northern California, which she said is similar to Colorado’s unique agricultural climate. “I feel very at home here,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “I still have a lot to learn about Colorado in general. When you don’t grow up in a place, I think there’s always an opportunity to learn more about the dynamic system that’s here, but I’m very excited about that.” Stackhouse-Lawson said the collaborative will do important work for the future. “As we innovate to feed the world, there’s only going to be more people,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “And feeding all of those people is potentially the greatest challenge of our time, especially when you look at the developing nations across the globe.” According to the book “Minding the Stock: Bringing Public Policy to Bear on Livestock Sector Development” by the World Bank, developing countries are demanding more animal-sourced food at increasing rates.

“Growing demand presents real opportunities for economic growth and poverty reduction in rural areas,” the book’s executive summary reads. “It could directly benefit the 1 billion poor people who depend on livestock as a source of income and subsistence.” Stackhouse-Lawson said that, oftentimes, when developing nations obtain new resources to spend, they begin to incorporate more meat into their diet. She said this is important because meat does so much from a nutrition standpoint, as it helps with enhanced cognition and brain development. “It’s also very much a part of how people sort of comfort themselves or how they might engage socially,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “It’s just a part of who we are in so many societies, and we are going to need to continue to innovate and find solutions to continue to improve the sustainability of all food systems and livestock food.” Bill Hammerich, a representative of the livestock industry on the workgroup charged with creating the SLSC, wrote in an email to The Collegian about the importance of the project.

“I am excited that Colorado State University recognized the need to be proactive and position themselves as a leader in addressing the challenges of feeding a growing world population and focusing on the need to do it in a sustainable way,” Hammerich wrote. Hammerich also praised Stackhouse-Lawson as the first director of the collaborative. “Stackhouse-Lawson brings impeccable credentials and a superb understanding and knowledge of the livestock industry, which will serve her well in her new role,” Hammerich wrote. Stackhouse-Lawson said she is excited about the opportunities the new collaborative may bring to CSU students. “For a CSU student to be able to influence the way livestock are raised and to learn how to influence that in a collaborative and solutions-oriented fashion is really special,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “Hopefully we’ll set up students to be successful in whatever they do because these are the sorts of wicked problems that teach us how to think.” Ceci Taylor can be reached at news@collegian.com .

SERIOUSLY

5 scariest things to look out for this Halloween think that it’s 10 times scarier to pick up and wear a Shrek mask that tons of kids have touched? I mean, complete your costume and all, but at your own risk. Also, have you noticed that the longer that we wear masks, the more cases that we get on campus? Shrek may be life, but in this case, it’s a no from me, dawg.

By Joslyn Orji @lazy_svndae_

Editor’s Note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names and the events surrounding them may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read the editor’s notes are subject to being offended. FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Halloween and the election are just a couple of days away, and frankly, I just can’t choose between which one terrifies me more. We’ve been waiting for this moment for all of 2020. It’s time for some real excitement and some

real terror. This Halloween should give us just that. This year, we’ve seen some terrifying things so far, but nothing can prepare you for what might go down this Halloween season. With Halloween falling on a full moon, here are some things that should terrify you as the day approaches: 1. Masks (The top COVID-19 spreader, as reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) The way that Walmart and costume stores leave masks just strewn across the floor has always terrified the heck out of me. I’m not a germaphobe, but don’t you

“The ballot box has to be fed every four years by Nov. 3 — or else.” 2. Fangs (Alexa play “A Thousand Years” again) These should be obvious, but for a lot of people it’s not. The CDC has reported synthetic fangs as the second likely cause of a disease outbreak on college campuses across the nation this Halloween. Think about it. Halloween is the one time of the year the young and wild youth of America get to go around and relive their suppressed vampirical fantasies. They’re bound to be biting people

on the neck and playing out their delicious Edward Cullen fantasies, only recoiling away in disgust from things like garlic. Not even a pandemic is going to keep students off each other. 3. Werewolf hair Quarantine gave us a lot of scary trends, like 17 new (but oddly familiar) TikTok dances. Yet nothing is more terrifying than DIY bangs done at 3 a.m. for clout and giggles. Oddly enough, hairdressers have been a rare sight since the beginning of the pandemic. I don’t know if it’s the economy or just bad disease management, but just like toilet paper and hand sanitizer, their services cost an arm and a leg. I am all for the do-it-yourself movement, but for the love of God, watch a YouTube tutorial at least. 4. Calling all the ballot monsters Okay, this is a serious one. This has life or death consequences for groups that are not classified as white. If you see a ballot monster, there are two things that you need to do. The first is to drop a marked envelope with your signature on it inside its hungry jaws. This mon-

ster feeds off of one thing and one thing only: votes. Drop that bad boy in there and watch it grumble in appreciation. The next thing you gotta do is slap the complimentary “I Voted” sticker on your t-shirt. Yeah, show your peers that you’re better than them, watch them tremble in fear at your greatness. Although, remember, this is a serious one. The ballot box has to be fed every four years by Nov. 3 — or else. 5. Not the unpredictable weather The weather is getting more intimidating with each day, but it’s frightening that mainstream media keeps trying to shove climate change down our throats. How can you say that we’re experiencing global warming when we just had 16 inches of snow? Hello? Snow is cold, so obviously it’s not getting warm, pfft. It’s really scary how people still believe that global warming is still happening this year. Like, watch some news with real, unbiased information every once in a while (like Fox). Can’t you see that it’s cool to ignore scientists now? Joslyn Orji can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

COLLEGIAN COLUMNIST

The media often falls short in addressing sexism By Corinne Neustadter @cneustad

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. This year’s election marks the end of a political contest season like no other. With the COVID-19 pandemic, the death of George Floyd and a subsequent national discourse on the role of police in society and now wildfires raging across the western United States, it seems like there has been breaking news every day, even without the election. News organizations, therefore, have an obligation to report on these concurrent issues in addition to delivering informational coverage to voters in such an important election year. How national news portrays candidates highlights their differences, particularly in regard to gender. It is important for us, as students who are just beginning to vote, to recognize how gender is involved in media coverage. By her own admission, 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton remarked in her book “What Happened” on how the media’s coverage of her differed from opponent Donald Trump: “None of Donald Trump’s scandals ... generated the kind of sustained, campaign-defining coverage my emails did.” Clinton’s emails were infamously a large topic of debate when The New York Times revealed that, during her time as Secretary of State, she used a private email server for electronic communication rather than a government-managed email server. News coverage, particularly from The New York Times, which broke the news in 2015, emphasized that “her expansive use of the private account was alarming to current and former National Archives and Records Administration officials and government watchdogs, who

called it a serious breach.” The extensive, seemingly overzealous coverage of Clinton’s emails signifies the pervasive sexism inherent in the 2016 election. According to a study reported by the Columbia Journalism Review, which compared Clinton and Trump scandal coverage by national news outlets, “The various Clinton-related email scandals ... accounted for more sentences than all of Trump’s scandals combined.” During the same election, Trump was accused of sexual assault, harassment during beauty pageants, racial housing discrimination, violating antitrust laws, refusing to pay hired contractors and underpaying hired undocumented workers, just to name a few. As Thomas Patterson, Bradlee Professor of Government and the Press at Harvard University notes, “Were the allegations surrounding Clinton of the same order of magnitude as those surrounding Trump? It’s a question that political reporters made no serious effort to answer during the 2016 campaign.”

“Media sexism is a pervasive trend that continues to impact how women are represented in politics and positions of leadership.” As the first female presidential nominee of the Democratic Party, and of a major U.S. party in general, Clinton was under a unique scrutiny that no other woman has faced in national politics before. Although presidential election coverage has become more personalized over the past 12 years, with a low amount of time spent on policy issues, media’s focus on controversies extends past sensationalism and into sexism. “It was Clinton, not Trump, who was more often the target of negative coverage,” according to a study by Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy.

COLLEGIAN FILE ILLUSTRATION

In fact, 62% of the coverage of her candidacy was negative, in comparison to 56% of Trump’s coverage. This gender gap in media portrayals of Clinton almost certainly influenced voters. With a large amount of coverage centered around a negative portrayal, Clinton’s personality and political persona were under increased scrutiny. As a prominent political figure for around 20 years, Clinton’s experience in politics shaped the way she responded to the media. Clinton herself noted that she tends to be perceived as “aloof” or “unemotional,” but being in the public eye from a young age she had “to learn … to control (her) emotions.” Media portrayals of Clinton reflect a culture of sexism that scrutinizes women in politics — which had a significant impact on how voters, particularly women, voted in 2016. According to Pew Research Center, “Women were 13 percentage points more likely than men to have voted for Clinton.” Though 61% of voters who cast a ballot for Clinton were

women, Trump led among white women by 47% to 45% despite his documented misogynistic comments. Media sexism is a pervasive trend that impacts how women are represented in politics and positions of leadership. “About 7 in 10 women ... say a major reason why women are underrepresented in top positions in politics and business is that they have to do more to prove themselves,” which signifies that media portrayals of powerful women could be hindering women’s leadership ambitions. This pattern of media sexism is continually present in current events. Although the 2018 midterms saw a historic number of women elected to public office and subsequent responses to gender-based attacks in politics, prominent women are still portrayed unfairly in the media. In fact, the recent announcement of Sen. Kamala Harris as the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, the first Black and Asian woman to be nominated, led to biased media attacks. A report by TIME’S UP Now found that 25%

of coverage regarding the announcement “included racist and sexist stereotyping and tropes.” On a larger scale, 61% of all coverage mentioned her gender and race, in comparison to 5% of coverage of Sen. Tim Kaine’s and Mike Pence’s nominations in 2016. Though the extent of media sexism is likely lowered this election cycle, as Harris is in a less prominent position than Clinton was, it signifies that media sexism is a pervasive force that has the power to influence elections. Until the pervasiveness of sexist rhetoric is recognized and overhauled in media reporting, we all need to be more conscious of how leaders across industries are written about differently according to their gender. Becoming more aware of how we personally consume news, think about current events and perceive our leaders can better help us realize where media has fallen short in addressing sexism and better reconcile how it has divided us.

The basics of tarot, astrology and the Ouija board By Cat Blouch @BlouchCat

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. As elusive as the system of faith through which methods of divination originate is, the various methods of divination have a mysterious history. With Halloween around the corner, many people are becoming more in tune with their more intuitive selves and turning to mediums to uncover subconscious truths. With the rise in popularity of such techniques, curiosity peaks; why do people believe in divination, what are the different methods and which one is best for you? Should you be considering dabbling in such practices? The original iteration of the tarot cards can be traced back to the late 14th century, when artists in Europe created the first tarot cards, which were used originally as playing cards. It wasn’t until about the late 16th century that divination with playing cards became popular, but it was simpler. Specific meanings were associated with each card in the 18th century. In spiritual practice, tarot cards can answer simple inquiries or more complex questions, such as predictions of a timeline for the year ahead or the nature of a person. Tarot is used in practice

because of its versatility, in addition to its attention to detail. It can be applied to virtually any situation, and it allows for “clarifying cards,” which the user can continue to draw to further help them understand a reading. If you are curious about trying tarot cards, you can get free tarot readings online or buy a deck of your own. The Rider-Waite edition is the most popular tarot card deck used for divination in the United States, if you’re a sucker for tradition. I would recommend the Modern Witch Tarot Deck, as it has a simple design, nice vibrant colors and a fun, modern twist to the age-old practice. Astrology is another practice that has deep historical roots. While many believe it to be a method of categorizing people into 12 different personalities, this style of divination is more complex. We often associate astrology with horoscopes, but that is just one piece of the puzzle. Based on the exact time and location of birth, an entire birth chart is developed — including your planet, sign and house. For example, my sun sign, which is traditionally the sign that is most recognizable, is in Leo, my moon sign is in Scorpio and my rising sign is in Capricorn. Additionally, each sign has a corresponding “house” that it is associated with based on your birth chart, which adds even more complexity when analyzing certain aspects of an individual. Often the greatest misconception about astrology is that it is vague and typecasts people into basic categories based on stereotypes. In actuality, it is very pre-

cise; every birth chart is different because nobody else was born at the exact same time in the exact same place as anyone else. This is a popular mode of divination for that very reason. It helps individuals seek a deeper understanding of their true characteristics — those we display to others and subconscious habits. Another method of divination is the Ouija board. While there is much controversy surrounding its legitimacy, let me be clear: Whether or not you believe it is a legitimate instrument that allows one to connect with those who have passed, it is most certainly not a game. Many hold a belief in a deep, sinister character of the Ouija board as a tool that not only lets

you connect with positive spirits but also spirits with bad intentions. The Ouija board works by acting as a medium between two planes of existence. It is a tool for channeling the energy of spirits into the board itself. If you’ve done your research and decide to use the Ouija board, here are some general rules of practice: ■ Choose one speaker to lead the session. ■ Do not use the board alone. ■ End every session. Make sure the planchette hovers over goodbye before members of the party take their hands off. ■ Do not use the board in your house. The ouija board is used as a tool of divination, as it allows for more specific questions, often

with very deliberate answers. It is typically more versatile with the questions it allows for, though compared to the tarot, it focuses more on specific questions without painting a long-term picture. Whatever divination practice you decide to use, the most important thing to remember is that these are tools of people’s belief systems, and thus, you should garner respect accordingly. Keep in mind that none of these mediums are toys. That being said, all of the aforementioned instruments may be used to help answer questions and understand yourself on a deeper level should you walk into these practices with an open mind.

Trick or Treat: Rams’ top plays through the seasons By Ethan Lee @EthanLee_99

This Halloween will undoubtedly look different thanks to all of the COVID-19-related precautions. However, just because trick-or-treating and costume parties have been put on standby does not mean that this spooky season is lost. My fellow Collegian sports desk reporters and I have compiled an assortment of CSU’s most mind-boggling trick plays, along with the sweetest of catches, shots and spikes for Ram fans to sink their teeth into from the safety of their own home. First up on the list of treats is a spectacular touchdown catch by former Rams receiver and current NFL standout Preston Williams. While it was hard to choose this catch over the 11 others he had against the University of Arkansas Razorbacks on Sep. 8, 2018, the touchdown catch that put the Rams within three points stood out the most. Williams leaped high above the Arkansas defensive back, bobbling the ball with one hand initially but then securing it against his chest as he fell to the ground. This score came with 11 minutes left in the fourth quarter, putting the Rams within three of the Razorbacks. With the help of a few more timely catches by Williams and a few stops on defense, the Rams secured the come-from-behind victory after trailing 27-9. This catch and the second half effort put forth by the Rams will be a treat for fans to look back on and enjoy for years to come. For our first trick, we travel back in time to 1997 when the CSU Rams met the University of Missouri in the Holiday Bowl. Led by Ram legends Moses Moreno and Darran Hall, the Rams held a 2824 lead in the fourth quarter. With a Moreno pass attempt coming just short on 3rd and 10, it was time to send the field goal unit out. The Rams lined up to ex-

tend the lead to seven — or at least that’s what everyone thought. Once the ball was snapped to holder/backup quarterback Ryan Eslinger, it was clear the Rams had no interest in going for the extra point. Eslinger burst through the middle of the line, breaking one tackle on his way to a 23-yard game-sealing touchdown run. Coach Sonny Lubick and the ‘97 Rams won the Holiday Bowl and finished 11-2 on the year. Next up, we go to the hardwood in January, where point guard Isaiah Stevens provided Ram fans, especially those in attendance that night, with a memory they won’t soon forget. In a Mountain West matchup versus the University of Nevada, Reno that had been tightly contest-

ed all night, the Rams found themselves down one with five seconds left. Junior guard Kendle Moore inbounded the ball to Stevens, who took the ball the length of the court and sent his defender flying with a behindthe-back crossover before pulling up for the game-winning jump shot. The buzzer-beater sent the fans packed into Moby Arena spilling onto the court to celebrate with their victorious Rams. This is definitely a highlight sweet enough to watch over and over again, and the best part is that Stevens is only a sophomore, so CSU fans have a lot more to look forward to. Our final trick comes from a Border War classic all the way back in 1966. The Rams were playing host to a

University of Wyoming side that was ranked 10th nationally. However, in a rivalry as fierce as this one, all bets are off no matter how heavy a favorite either side might be. Trailing 7-3 against the heavily favored Cowboys, Rams coach Mike Lude called a play on third down that would eventually be known as the bounce pass. The only problem was that on the third down pass attempt, Rams quarterback Bob Wolfe mishandled the ball and mistakenly threw a regular screen pass. The Cowboys stopped this easily, bringing up fourth down for the Rams. To the surprise of his offensive coordinator, Lude left his offense on the field and dialed up the trick play once more. This time, Wolfe success-

fully bounced the lateral pass off the grass to wide receiver Larry Jackson, who then acted as if the play was dead before heaving a deep pass to tightend Tom Pack. Pack walked into the end-zone and gave the Rams a 9-7 lead. That would be the only touchdown the Rams scored all game, but with the help of a late-game field goal, the amazing trick play did not go to waste as the Rams handed the Cowboys their only loss of the season. For videos of these crazy highlights, check out the digital version at collegian.com. I hope you enjoyed reliving some of the Rams’ best tricks and treats from yesteryear and wish you all a happy and safe Halloween. Ethan Lee can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

COLLEGE ATHLETICS

A new NCAA eligibility rule positively affects CSU basketball By Bailey Bassett & Scott Nies @CSUCollegian

Collegiate sports have been put through the ringer this year due to the COVID -19 pandemic. Most, if not all, conferences canceled athletics at the start of the semester, then the conferences postponed athletics until spring, but now most universities and their respective conferences have resumed play, meaning college football is well underway, and the basketball season looms just around the corner. However, seasons have been restructured and shortened to accommodate COVID -19-related precautions, which, in turn, has raised questions regarding how student-athletes and their playing eligibility will be affected. The National Collegiate Athletic Association has provided a lifeline to its athletes in a recent update regarding student-athlete eligibility. As well as an extra year of eligibility, the update indicates that a “blanket waiver” has been given for teams to receive an automatic bid in fall championships. This means the Colorado State Rams will be playing in a bowl game this fall regardless of their season record. Winter and spring sports also have changes to their requirements for eligibility regarding championship bids. “Teams in winter sports can participate in as few as 50% of the required minimum contests/dates of competition and still be considered for championship selection,” the update reads. Specifically, the update indicates that teams will still be eligible for “at-large championships selections,” regardless of if they have a .5 record or better. For a young Colorado State University men’s basketball team that finished its last season 20-12, with 11-7 conference, these eligibility changes can only help. The Rams have zero seniors for the 2020-2021 season, an exceptionally rare situation. A lot of teams will be returning seniors for the fifth season, and, as they are often the leaders and best players, this can be very beneficial. But CSU is already a young squad and will benefit significantly from the extra year of eligibility that will be granted. CSU will be looking

to be contenders in the Mountain West Conference this season, and giving this young roster an extra year to develop will help give the Rams the potential to run the conference over the next couple of seasons. Arguably CSU’s best class is the current group of sophomores. Isaiah Stevens and David Roddy were already two of the best players on the team as freshmen last season. Now, with four more years of eligibility including this season, they hold freshman eligibility levels but with significant collegiate playing experience behind them. Four more years of those two, as well as Dischon Thomas and John Tonje, who were contributors last season, will be special for CSU. CSU may very well get to see the superstar duo of Roddy and Stevens lead the team for four seasons or more. Stevens was Third-Team All-Mountain West and the Freshman of the Year last season. If Stevens continues his breakneck pace, this extra year of eligibility could help establish him as one of the Rams’ most dominant players of all time, especially if his extra year contributes to the conquering of a couple of CSU records. Stevens’ 144 assists last season were more than double the next closest. Stevens was already on pace to shatter the CSU assists record held by Ryan Yoder, who played in the early 1990s, even without having an extra season to chase it. Stevens should demolish the record of 529 assists. Stevens put himself on track to compete for the points record as well. After scoring a team-high 424 points last season, Pat Durham’s record of 1,980 points is more than reachable. Both Tonje and Thomas have the talent to be big pieces for CSU as well. With last year’s seniors not blocking their minutes, they should improve every season. Tonje has top tier athleticism, and the extra season will allow even further development for him. Perhaps more than anyone else on the team, Tonje can legitimately become a star because of the extra year due to his offensive potential. We may be seeing Thomas manning the paint for four more years as well. With Thomas being the heir to the center position that was previously held by Nico Carvacho, the Rams can be very

grateful for the fact that the center position won’t be a concern for eight straight years, since Carvacho was a four-year starter. Having a fifth year of play will also be super impactful for both the freshmen and the juniors. Finding minutes for freshmen can often be tough, and some of the youngsters are bound to be stuck on the bench without an easy path to getting game time. If Isaiah Rivera, Jacob Jennissen, Trace Young or redshirt freshman James Moors struggle to find minutes early in their careers, they can still bank on learning the system and developing to still be a contributor for their final four seasons. As for the juniors: in any other season, you would look at guys like Adam Thistlewood and Kendle Moore and realize their collegiate careers are already halfway over. With both guys projected as starters again, the best is most definitely yet to come. However, as much as the extra year of eligibility helps CSU, it also helps some of their conference rivals. Matt Mitchell, San Diego State University’s first-team 201920 all-conference forward would also get an extra year. Mitchell averaged 12.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists last season.

Gory Stories: Frightening tales for a scholarly spook-tober By Scott Powell @scottysseus

Literature. It’s not as bad as high school English class made it seem. Indeed, when you’re not racking your brains trying to figure out how a pair of eyes on a billboard is somehow a symbol for the inevitable madness that results from our passionate, desperate, hopeless pursuits of true love in a hyper-industrialized aristocratic society, reading can actually be quite fun. Especially around Halloween time, a season which has inspired some of the most delightfully frightful tales ever scratched onto paper. If you’re in the market for some phantasmic fiction to pore over this Halloween, here’s a list of spooky stories to check out!

“The amount of detail Irving puts into describing the story’s world and the curious characters who inhabit it is a rarity in the horror fiction genre, in which stories often skip over exposition to jumpstart the thrills.”

“The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving Much like fine wine and Alan Alda, the best scary stories get better with age. And when it comes to eerie yarns of yore, few have stood the test of time quite like Washington Irving’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” Perhaps it’s simply the story’s influence on American literature that is to thank for this longevity. It was one of the first stories officially categorized as a short story, which, along with musical theatre and internet memes, is one of only a few distinguishable art forms argued to have originated in the U.S. But there is something that remains especially chilling about “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” even 200 years after its original publication. The amount of detail Irving puts into describing the story’s world and the curious characters who inhabit it is a rarity in the horror fiction genre, in which stories often skip over exposition to jumpstart the thrills. Actual story is often

secondary in these tales, save for the cinder block novels of Stephen King, which are often chastised themselves by literary critics for their lengthiness. But it’s precisely these small, often drab expositional details that bring horror stories to life. Every pages-long description of the lanky Ichabod Crane or the Tarrytown graveyard or the crunchy fall leaves that Irving includes in his tale, no matter how monotonous they may seem to modern audiences, immerses the reader more deeply in the world of Sleepy Hollow, bringing it to life so that the terrors that exist inside of it seem more real. It’s a masterwork of American fiction and an essential addition to any Halloween reading list. “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe Before haunted houses became nothing more than old refurbished warehouses where bored teenagers pay to be chased by rubber-chainsaw-wielding theater school dropouts, there was Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher.” While not the first haunted house story, and perhaps not a haunted house story at all given its lack of any actual supernatural phenomena — the Usher family members are not lively spirits who have been robbed of their earthly forms but, rather, earthly forms which have been robbed of their lively spirits — “The Fall of the House of Usher” nonetheless captures what it is that makes haunted houses terrifying better than any other story in the sub-genre’s canon.

“The ushers are not simply stalked by strange, invisible things that go ‘bump’ in the night or write notes on their mirrors in blood. Rather, they are haunted by the crushing weight of an aristocratic legacy which has, after many generations, at last been exposed as the hollow and empty fraud that it is.” The Ushers are not simply stalked by strange, invisible things that go “bump” in the night or write notes on their

mirrors in blood. Rather, they are haunted by the crushing weight of an aristocratic legacy which has, after many generations, at last been exposed as the hollow and empty fraud that it is. And it’s the decay of this social status that haunted houses ultimately symbolize. They are places where people, like the Ushers, who have become indistinguishable — first to themselves and eventually to others — from the massive amounts of artifacts and priceless heirlooms they have acquired throughout their lives, must at long-last face the terrifying existential consequences for their generations of greed and complacency. It’s a poignant dissection of the blurry line between distinction and isolation, exploring how that which makes us appear distinguished is also that which alienates us and thus must be rooted in something human and eternal if it is going to be of any real value lest it give way to desperation, madness and, eventually, collapse. A brilliant commentary on the futility of wealth and societal distinction, and a truly terrifying tale, “Usher” is a must-read for any haunted house hound. “Sredni Vashtar” by Saki Children are terrifying — and not just the ones who show

up in hotel corridors asking you to play with them. All children are terrifying. I mean, have you seen “Phineas and Ferb”? Sure, it’s all fun and games when they’re just using their maniacally imaginative kid brains to build roller coasters and rocket ships, but where does it end? A kid who can build a rocket ship could just as easily build a nuclear bomb or an army of killer, laser-shooting robots. And without a fully developed prefrontal cortex to mediate their behavior, who knows what havoc they could wreak on humanity? Mark my words, World War III will not be a standoff between Russia and the U.S., it will be a civil war between helpless, exhausted parents and the tots from “Superbabies.” And when this war of the wee-uns erupts, we’ll look to Saki’s “Sredni Vashtar” as a prophetic text. No story captures the inherent insidiousness of youngsters quite like this Edwardian-era tale of angsty pre-adolescent Conradin, and his malicious plan to rid himself of his oppressive guardian, Mrs. De Ropp, by means of his deranged pet ferret. The story is a chilling fable of a naive imagination run amok and a window into the darkness that lurks at the core of even the most innocent among us.

“The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson

“The terror that lurks at the center of ‘the lottery’ only springs up at the very last moment, yanking the story’s sense of calm, neighborly security right out from under the reader’s feet to create one of the most shocking and gruesome plot twists in literary history.” Much like Irving’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” is made terrifying not by its high-intensity thrills, but rather by its slow, meticulous immersion of the reader into its very peaceful, unassuming setting. Unlike Irving, however, whose Headless Horseman maintains a distinctly eerie, if understated, presence throughout the entirety of the story, the terror that lurks at the center of “The Lottery” only springs up at the very last moment, yanking the story’s sense of calm, neighborly security right out from under continue GORY STORIES on page 19 >>

While not the most Halloween-y of Jackson’s works, the story still gives off an enigmatic aroma which, while not explicitly supernatural, creates a sense of otherworldly, cultish unease as it progresses and the demented, sociopathic nature of these simple all-American New Englanders

rises to the surface. At once a scathing social satire and a scare-your-socks-off horror story, “The Lottery” is the perfect fit for a subversive Hallow’s Eve read. For something more traditionally ghoulish and gothic, check out her equally hair-stiffening, though toolong-to-be-considered-”short” novels “The Haunting of Hill House” and “We Have Always Lived in the Castle.” “The Man in the Black Suit” by Stephen King Sometimes scary stories derive their terror from the

“There’s no blood, no guts, no jump scares, just a dark, surreal tableau that suggests something is deeply, deeply wrong.” more realistic, more immediate fears of contemporary society, reflecting something that is terrifying about ourselves and the people our culture has shaped us into. Other times, scary stories derive their terror from absolutely nowhere in particular, leaving us wide-

eyed and shivering under our covers without ever needing to show us so much as a severed head, ghost or zombie. These stories instead inspire terror through their vivid painting of an unsettling portrait in the reader’s imagination. And while H.P. Lovecraft deserves a nod for pioneering this enigmatic, atmospheric form, no one has ever painted such an unsettling word– painting as Stephen King did in “The Man in the Black Suit.” The story is simple: a young boy is stalked by a pale, lanky man in a black suit while he’s out fishing. There’s no blood, no guts, no jump scares,

just a dark, surreal tableau that suggests something is deeply, deeply wrong — a sense of wrongness that only grows and intensifies the longer the story goes along. In the end, nothing happens. Nothing changes. No one gets hurt. And yet you’re left with an incurable feeling of dread in the pit of your stomach. King’s story is a masterclass in how vivid language and precise imagery can be used to target our deepest, most unknowable human fears — and be the perfect preface to a sleepless night.

Fall is filled with lovely smells, flavors and food. I especially love making themed recipes that go with whatever holiday it is, so ‘tis the season for Halloween. We are going to be making jack-o’-lantern stuffed peppers — um, yum. Before you start any cooking, set your oven to 350 degrees, and allow it to preheat. I always forget this part and then, come time to use the oven, it’s cold. So first step, turn the oven on. Then bring a large pot of water to boil. While you are waiting for that,

slice the top of the peppers in zigzag form to create that pumpkin carving aesthetic. Hollow the inside of them out with a spoon. To go with the theme of Halloween, take a paring knife, or whatever kind of little knife you have, and cut out a jack-o’-lantern face. Once that’s finished, the water should be boiling, so go ahead and pop in the peppers with the tops on. Let that boil for five minutes or until the peppers are tender. While the peppers are boiling, you will want to warm up your minute rice and open the can of black

beans, rinse and drain. Set your mixings aside for the time being. Grab a pan and cook your ground turkey. Keep an eye on those peppers. Once the turkey browns some, add in your spices and keep mixing. Once that is finished cooking through, add all those ingredients, including the beans and tomatoes, together in a big bowl and mix. At this point in time, the peppers should be done cooking. Take the peppers out of the boiling water and set aside to cool off. Once they’re cool enough, fill

each pepper to the top with your mixture. If you want the maximum Halloween aesthetic, add the tops back to your peppers. Place the peppers in an oven-safe tin or glassware and allow it to cook in the oven for about 30 minutes. At 25 minutes, if you want, top off the peppers with cheese and allow that to melt completely with a bit of crispiness to form. If you do not want cheese, add your desired salsa after the 30 minutes is up and enjoy. Sierra Grimm can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

On a day when many dress up in fun and extraordinary costumes, countless people hold memories of trick-or-treating with friends, receiving an assortment of candies and experiencing Halloween parties. For many, the tradition of Halloween is tied to expressing originality through costumes.

“Some people associate fond memories of childhood costumes with moments shared with others.” Halloween has become a holiday centered around dressing up in fun ways that one wouldn’t be able to do on an ordinary day. Throughout the years, we have seen characters from popular movies, famous actors and jokes in costume form. However, this wasn’t always the case. According to history.com, in the early 20th century, people would dress up for Halloween with a specific theme to be spooky and scary. These costumes were usually

made from scratch and were often used as a disguise while causing trouble. In 1933, after cases of vandalism, people focused on diverting the youths’ views of Halloween to something more positive. Children were dressed up in ways that weren’t spooky: movie stars, cartoons, etc. Communities organized traditions like trick-or-treating to keep kids out of trouble and encourage good behavior. The possibilities of dressing up became limitless. We continue traditions like trick-or-treating and dressing up, and we come up with new ideas every year. Some people associate fond memories of childhood costumes with moments shared with others. “One Halloween I dressed up as a vampire,” said Hailey Hays. “My Papa and I always joked about Halloween. We would always wear those fake vampire teeth and laugh so hard. He passed away the following spring, so I always remember that Halloween.” While some people remember the uniqueness of their costumes, others are in it for one goal. Matthew Recksiedler remembers dressing up as Scooby-doo, a dinosaur and Anakin Skywalker from “Star Wars.” “The costume was just a means to get candy,” Recksiedler

said.

Costumes can also be an excuse to be creative and make something different that the creator is proud of. Elise Ng recalls one year when she and a group of friends dressed up as characters from the Disney movie “Atlantis.” Ng dressed up as Audrey Ramirez, “the mechanic lady,” which reflected her

interests perfectly, as she is now finishing her fifth year pursuing a biomedical and mechanical engineering degrees at Colorado State University. “We made (the costumes) mostly by buying pieces off of Amazon or different stores and then modified and put them together,” Ng said.

The possibilities of Halloween costumes have come very far from the initial hope to inspire a good fright. They now act as a way to share special moments with others, present opportunities to exercise creativity and, importantly, to obtain as much candy as possible.

10 must-watch Halloween classics for your spooky season By Kadyn Thorpe @ThorpeKadyn

Halloween is a great time to cozy on up with a warm drink and watch a good movie. With Halloween festivities widely disrupted by the pandemic, here’s a list of great Halloween movies to give you a thrill. 1. “Beetlejuice” (1988) Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! You can never go wrong with a classic Tim Burton film that involves ghosts and the devious poltergeist Beetlejuice, portrayed by Michael Keaton. This is a mustwatch movie if you are interested in fantasy comedy that borders on the line of just plain weirdness. 2. “The Nightmare Before Christmas” (1993) “The Nightmare Before Christmas” is another Tim Burton classic for not only Halloween but also Christmas. Whether it’s spooky season or happy holidays, this is a great stop-motion film for anyone not wanting something too scary and for anyone who loves to sing along with the characters.

3. “The Addams Family” (1991) The Addams family isn’t your typical family, and the search for a long-lost brother and a possible scam is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. The film is full of dark humor and is so amusing that anyone can enjoy it. Again, this is a great film to watch if you want something different and a little odd but not too scary. 4. “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” (1975) If you like weird and bizarre films, this is the one for you. The story is moved along with dances and rock songs that will make you want to “do the Time Warp again!” For anyone who likes musicals and Halloween, this is a great movie that you can watch any time of the year. 5. “Hocus Pocus” (1993) “Hocus Pocus” is a great, chaotic spiral of events. This movie has what you need for Halloween: witches, spells and black cats. Salem witches coming back from the dead can be something terrifying to think about, but the movie is comedically thrilling.

6. “Ghostbusters” (1984) Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! This is a more lighthearted, funny approach to a scarier subject. A gang of ghosts and ghouls haunting New York City is sure to gain anyone’s interest. Plus, the hilarious dialogue between characters makes this movie a great comedy. 7. “Halloween” (1978) What better to watch on Halloween than “Halloween” itself? This is a great movie if you are the type of person who likes old slasher films. After escaping from the mental hospital, Michael Myers is expected to kill again, but who? The film is suspenseful and a great movie to watch with the lights off and a bowl of popcorn. 8. “Halloweentown” (1998) A Disney Channel original, this Halloween movie follows a family of witches as they come together to help defeat something evil. This movie has some twists and turns that make it interesting to watch and to try to figure out what is truly going on. This is an entertaining movie for the family to watch for the holidays.

9. “The Shining” (1980) Living in Colorado, the best choice for a Halloween movie would be Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining.” Based off of Stephen King’s novel by the same name, the story’s setting is inspired by the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. The caretaker of the hotel going crazy and people seeing ghosts are things that can get anyone into the spooky Halloween mood. “The Shining” is a great psychological

horror movie with some jump scares and eerie themes. 10. “Psycho” (1960) A classic thriller, Alfred Hitchcock’s “Psycho” is known as one of his best works. The movie, based on American killer Ed Gein, can be something terrifying for all ages and will make you sit on the edge of your seat, wanting more.

MUSIC

Spooks & Tunes: Halloween songs to get your monster on

By Tiffany Daigle

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY CHRISTINE MOORE–BONBRIGHT THE COLLEGIAN

By Maddy Erskine @maddyerskine_

With Halloween right around the corner, it is time to start cranking the scary music. And I do not mean “Monster Mash,” which may just be the most overplayed and overrated Halloween song out there. Instead of filling your Halloween playlist with basic and outdated tunes, here are some songs that will get you grooving in the graveyard — 6 feet apart, of course — this spooky season. “Halloween” by Siouxsie and the Banshees If your friend group is dressed as “The Breakfast Club” crew this Halloween, this song is meant for you. Siouxsie and the Banshees was a British post-punk, gothic rock band that began in the late ‘70s. It was incredibly influential to alternative music, and it lead the way for bands like Radiohead and The Cure. “Halloween” was released in 1981 on the album “Juju.” Siouxsie combines dark and sad lyrics with a recurring chorus, saying “trick or treat.” There is a classic alternative guitar feel with echoing riffs and lots of feedback. “The Time Warp” from “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” I will admit, this is a common and slightly overplayed Halloween song, but it deserves every single play and is a great Halloween classic. Maybe my love for this song stems from watching my mom do the entire dance every morning for three months after she found out she could ask our Echo to play songs, adding a whole new meaning to “let’s do the Time Warp AGAIN.” But in all honesty, “The Time Warp” is the perfect song to add to your Halloween jams. Whether you

know all the choreography from the musical or not, it is sure to get you on your feet and dancing along. If you haven’t seen the rock musical “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” it’s a cult classic to add to your movie night this spooky season.

“The song feels like it’s creeping and sneaking through time, hiding from the terrifying idea of forever. Additionally, the groovy bass line and funky synths will get every bone in your body dancing along.”

“Dracula’s Wedding” by OutKast, featuring Kelis “Dracula’s Wedding” will add the perfect amount of groove to your Halloween playlist. This song addresses one of the scariest things known to man: committed relationships. This clever play on the classic Dracula character and “till death do us part” in marriage makes an original and relatable Halloween tune. The whispering and echoing tone of vocals creates a scary storytelling feel that fits perfectly with the concept of horror and Dracula. The song feels like it’s creeping and sneaking through time, hiding from the terrifying idea of forever. Additionally, the groovy bass line and funky synths will get every bone in your body dancing along. “Halloween” by Misfits The Misfits is often credited for creating the subgenre of horror punk and is known for using horror

film imagery in their performances. While you may not be able to mosh with a hundred of your closest friends to this song this Halloween like the punk gods intended, the Misfits is still a top artist to add to your spooky season playlist. “Halloween” is a song about all the scary and crazy memories made on the very special night of the 31st. Hopefully you don’t remember seeing dead bodies everywhere on Halloween, but nonetheless this song will remind you of all your wild adventures on this very special night in the past. “Jack the Ripper” by Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages David Sutch, who performed under the stage name Screaming Lord Sutch, is a lesser-known but highly influential horror rock star from the ‘60s. He performed with his band, the Savages, and was known for his horror-themed songs and performances. Not only did he perform many of his shows as Jack the Ripper, but he also is the founder of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party in the United Kingdom. While this sounds bizarre, it actually began as the National Teenage Party, as a way to fight the hypocrisy of the former minimum voting age of 21. Sutch’s version of “Jack the Ripper” was first released as a single in 1963 and is the ultimate horror rock song for a spooky Halloween. Sutch combines the classic, groovy, ‘60s feel of guitar riffs and jazz piano with catchy lyrics of the scary tale of Jack the Ripper. The song starts with haunting footsteps and a woman’s scream, and more dramatic movie-like sound effects are woven into the music to portray the horror story.

The conqueror crept behind fair maiden. A silken wolf Prowling, Desire salivated upon his jaws. Pooling as he drank deep her form. Every nerve tensed, Ready… To savor her flesh; Taste of its overpowering beauty. She strolls; Meandering into violence. His violence. He ravishes; Drinking deep Her scent. He collapses. Wet Tears flow down her cheeks; Staining The flesh beneath her purple. A grin breaks upon her face. The wolf Never knew Fair maiden Held a poison in her soul; Grinning beneath A veneer of fair skin; The huntress has been satiated.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Say how you feel. You’re the only sign who will give unwarranted opinions to anybody. Maybe you should use your skills more thoughtfully and tell the people in your life what they mean to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) If a relationship is making you feel trapped, then ask yourself what you need in order to feel less restricted. Take it a step further by listening to your body when it’s telling you something’s wrong.

DAILY HOROSCOPE By: Jorge Espinoza TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (10/29/20)

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’re feeling discouraged because you’re stuck. It’s time to reframe your situation. Are you really stuck, or did your initial plan fail? You have more options than you think.

Horoscopes can be applied to your sun, moon and rising signs. Take what you need and leave what you don’t. ARIES (March 21-April 19) If you’ve made it this far, believe you can make it out. You can only get through the obstacles getting thrown your way if you believe you can. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t give up. Being lost and confused doesn’t mean you’re a failure. It simply means you need more time to figure things out. Give yourself grace for not having it all together.

L P H E

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’re being the toxic one by wasting other people’s time. Quit taking advantage of the power you have in the situation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) In an effort to explore your identity more, you may be feeling unsure if it was worth it. You’re not ready to reflect on this journey. Keep exploring yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll never be the person you want to be if you keep doubting your abilities. You can only offer abundance if you believe you have it.

D U R I N G

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Optimism is great, and you’re full of it. However, not every day is a sunny day. When cloudy days roll in, take some time to sit in the rain. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Don’t doubt your new ideas. They might lead you somewhere you never expected. Finish what you start. Don’t let this one sit in the drafts. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’re waiting for the answer to smack you in the face. Sorry to be the one to tell you that it won’t. Get moving because the only thing that’s coming for you is the consequence of your inaction. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’re at your best when you can show others the many things you’re good at. Quit limiting yourself. There’s always more space for you and your ideas.
