Guess what fam? The world is a scary place and it’s becoming more terrifying by the minute but there is something very serious we must discuss—it is only 6 weeks until Halloween! Let’s disassociate, and eat candy.

How many Barbie costumes do you think we’re going to see this year? My bet is approximately 9,562,183 million, but I’m actually okay with it. There is plenty of room to be creative within the Barbie Universe, so I hope we’ll see some wild, out-of-the-box (pun intended) Barbies at parties this year. Do you have a costume planned yet? Well if not, I got you, here are some unhinged costume ideas to ring in the end of the world:

Boogly Boo! 💀
  • The Twitter bird (RIP)

  • A mushroom cloud

  • The Zoned Out Black Cat

  • An emotionally triggered AI robot

  • The Trump Mugshot

  • A flat earth

  • Existential Crisis Barbie

  • Jeffrey Dahmer eating a sandwich

  • A Tinder catfish

  • Jordan Peterson

  • Tedros from The Idol

  • A cosmetic surgeon

  • A billionaire dressed as an astronaut

  • An Anti-Masker wearing a full face Michael Myers mask

  • A piece of Hawaiian pizza

  • An actor on strike

  • The Titan Submarine

  • A divorce lawyer

  • Max Headroom

  • A forest fire

  • A bottle of Sriracha

  • Taylor Swift with her robot eye exposed

  • Elon Musk with his robot eye exposed

  • A can of Fuck Around, Find Out

  • A cult leader

  • Jennifer Coolidge

  • A Nepo Baby

  • A drone that gives out parking tickets

  • A Mansplainer

  • Top Gun’s Maverick

  • A chemtrail

  • A guy selling micro-doses of LSD

  • Queen Elizabeth Undead

  • A ghost going to therapy

  • A cordyceps zombie

  • A bottle of benzos

I would think 9,562,183,000,000 is a lot of Barbie costumes any OTHER year, but seems like a low-ball estimate right now 🤪
