CLOSED - Theme Suggestions for October 2021 (Patreon)

UPDATE: Suggestions for this month are now closed

---------------------------------------------------

READ THE BELOW CAREFULLY - IT’S DIFFERENT THAN USUAL!! 😉

So, you can use the term, “Holiday Season” and pretty much anyone will know what you mean (usually that period from about Thanksgiving right up to New Years).

However, my absolute favourite time of year is just before that, in October. I love everything about celebrating things that are dark, or that frighten us, or people that are scary or different.

But it’s not about candy, and it’s not just a time for insta-hos to dress as cats… (Although it is a time to celebrate them. 😉)

So, this year I’m forming my own new Annual holiday: “Otherwise”. 😜

---------------------------------------------------

What is “Otherwise”?

Otherwise is an annual holiday that celebrates what’s different.

If Christmas is about family and thanksgiving is about being grateful, then this is about facing your fears, allowing yourself to be unique or even just taking one day to pretend to be someone or something else. For example, perhaps you want to be exuberant and outspoken even though you’re usually introverted?

There’s a power in embracing outcasts, those who are different, things that scare us, our superstitions, our myths and legends.

It’s a time where you can feel sexy, or scary, or connected to something spooky or ancient.

At its core, it’s a time to say to the darkness, “I’m not afraid of you and you have nothing to be afraid of from me… let’s respect each other and peacefully coexist”.

---------------------------------------------------

So, next month, the central theme will be “Otherwise”.

However, I’m once again going to ask for your input.

I’m opening the comments of this thread up for “Otherwise” Theme Suggestions for next month.

These will either be Otherwise themed and/or I will put an Otherwise spin on it.

You can leave your suggestions in the comments below and I will pick anywhere from 0-5 to add to my own ideas, which will then be put to a poll as usual (allowing suggestions is not locking the poll into only community suggestions - I may decide to go with other ideas).

However, I will pick the top 4 themes, and each of these will be assigned to a different image for the month.

I hope I’ve explained all that well enough, so with that said, this thread will be open for suggestions for about a week to see what Otherwise theme suggestions you guys come up with!!
