Trump just put candy on a kid’s head. Again. We are SO back.

In partnership with

Hi !

Today in Summary of the Internet:

Halloween 2025 came in swinging: flash floods swallowed the subway, King Charles exiled his brother, and Trump cosplayed himself at the White House again. The internet is a costume party, and everyone’s mask is slightly damp.

👀 Curated by humans. Boosted by bots. Delivered with flavor.

✅  Top 3 Must-Post Trends

1️⃣ NYC Flash Flooding Disaster: Record Rainfall Turns Streets Into Rivers

What happened:
New York was hit with a sudden, violent downpour on October 30 that dumped over two inches of rain in 20 minutes. Streets turned into rivers, subways into pools, and two men died in flooded basement apartments. Rescue crews scrambled across Brooklyn and Manhattan while cars floated in Bayonne.

The rainfall overwhelmed drainage systems across all boroughs, shutting down expressways and train lines. At one point, LaGuardia looked like Venice without the charm. The victims were a 39-year-old in Flatbush and another in Washington Heights. Both were trying to save personal items—and in one case, a pet.

Over 1,500 residents lost power. Meanwhile, the internet is flooding with videos of rats swimming past MetroCards and water blasting through subway stairs like a horror movie promo. Infrastructure is trending, and not in a good way.

🎯 Why this is a post opportunity:
Urban chaos + human drama + climate anxiety = post magnet. If you’re in NYC or adjacent, people want your firsthand take. If not, there’s still room for climate commentary or meme riffs.

✍️ Post Idea:
TikTok: “POV: You take the F train and end up on Finding Nemo’s set”
Instagram: Side-by-side video of normal street vs. today’s street with dramatic music
Twitter/X: “2 inches of rain in 20 minutes. NYC infrastructure is not built for the future—or even the present.”

📣 Micro CTA:
“Drop a 🌊 if you’ve ever swam to your subway platform.”

2️⃣ Prince Andrew Stripped of Titles & Evicted from Royal Lodge

What happened:
On October 30, King Charles officially revoked all of Prince Andrew’s royal titles and kicked him out of the Royal Lodge. He’s no longer a prince, Duke, or Royal Highness. He's just... Andrew now. A posthumous memoir from Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre reignited public outrage, and the palace finally acted.

He’s being moved to a smaller residence on the Sandringham estate. Charles is footing the bill personally—but it’s clearly a symbolic move: the monarchy wants nothing to do with Andrew’s scandal-shadowed name. It’s the most brutal royal ejection since Edward VIII.

🎯 Why this is a post opportunity:
Massive historical precedent, celebrity scandal, and justice vibes. It hits all the virality triggers—especially if you can tie it to other royal drama.

✍️ Post Idea:
TikTok: "Ranking the Most Canceled Royals of All Time (Andrew wins by a landslide)"
Instagram: Carousel breakdown: Before/After his titles. “From ‘His Royal Highness’ to ‘Just Some Guy.’”
Twitter/X: “King Charles just did what the public has been asking for since 2019.”

📣 Micro CTA:
“Was this the right move—or too little too late? Sound off.”

3️⃣ Trump’s Halloween Candy Antic Goes Viral — Again

What happened:
During the annual Halloween event at the White House, Trump placed a candy bar on a child’s head—again. This time it was a kid dressed as DJ Marshmello. The internet instantly compared it to his 2019 viral moment with a Minion costume. “We are so back,” posted one user.

Hundreds of kids in costumes swarmed the lawn. Between tiny Spider-Men and Baby Trumps, the candy-on-head moment stole the show. Right-wing accounts are celebrating it as peak dad-joke energy. Others are baffled. But everyone is watching it.

🎯 Why this is a post opportunity:
It’s light, meme-ready, and cross-partisan viral gold. Also—nostalgia meets absurdity.

✍️ Post Idea:
TikTok: “When you only know one Halloween trick…” (side-by-side 2019 vs. 2025)
Instagram Reel: “The Candy Saga Continues 🍫🎃”
Twitter/X: “Trump really said ‘Why fix what went viral in 2019?’”

📣 Micro CTA:
“Would you walk away or wear the candy proudly? Let us know.”
