12 Queer Couples Halloween Costumes For The Sapphics, Gays, & Theys
Your Astrological Signs
Everybody knows an astrological queer, and I happen to be one of them. (Sorry, I’m a Libra sun and a Leo moon, I can’t help it!) If you and your paramour want to get a good laugh (while also looking totally fab), show your Zodiac pride by dressing the part.

Let’s not forget that while they were paused in the pandemic, Section 21 “no fault” evictions still haven’t yet been banned.

Our confidence will be high, allowing us to have fortitude in moments of strife, as we ride along the rapturous waves of Mars in Scorpio period and dive into the deep end.

If your style thrives in the falltime, there’s a strong chance you have a solid sweater collection. Among the cardigans, turtlenecks, and knit vests, there’s one classic sweater style that will always stand the test of time—the cable-knit sweater.
