We Can Do So Much Better

It somehow feels like this week is all about pumpkins. They're being sold everywhere just for people to cut them and put a candle in. It's a tradition that's hard to break. Especially with the mass media promoting it everywhere. And why wouldn't they? Halloween is the second biggest celebration when it comes to making money.

When will this change? Should it even change?

I don't mind people cutting pumpkins when they could be eaten. I hate the marketing of it. Everyone just wants to earn selling overpriced items nobody needs when all that money could be used to help those in need.

Maybe I'm just blurting too much. But I don't think we should celebrate things so often when the world is only getting worse. I can never party when something important is on my mind. Humans should stand up for each other and help each other. Getting brainwashed isn't helping anyone except those in the power. The ones who control the narrative want you to spend your money now and not by helping others but by being greedy assholes.

We can do much better as humans and blurters. We can do so much better.

But can you?
