Happy October!

Thus ends Spooktober, after five years and 160 days (31 + 1 apiece). The archive remains available here, should you wish to browse, laugh, and remember. I hope these daily memes, photos, and jokes have brought some joy to your everyday October routines 🎃 Simultaneously, here begins the census hiatus -- two months with no poll questions, while the smith rests and evil plans are set in motion work is done on the website. What will you do in the meantime?

• I will mourn the passing of Spooktober for 30 days, and then celebrate Christmas.~
• I normally answer questions while waiting for something; I suppose now I must simply look up at the clouds.~
• Inspired by two years of poll questions, I will begin a project myself.~
• I'll miss the questions... it's really become a part of my daily routine.~
• I'll just have to start a competing question system! And do it right, without any duplicates or missed days or issues at all!~
