Apparently a Halloween costume of the sexy variety for "The Handmaid's Tale" has been produced. It did not go well.

That was satire in May 2017 that became reality in September 2018, because this is our new timeline.

As your link supports, shitty Halloween costumes are nothing new.

Handmaid's Tale isn't a horror story thus a Handmaid's Tale costume, sexy or not, is inappropriate for Halloween.

US Patent application 20170259946

Abstract

Disclosed is a modular, human-crewed interplanetary spacecraft that is assembled in cislunar space. It is primarily comprised of a hollowed-out asteroid; five expandable habitation modules, one of which is expanded inside the asteroid cavity; two docking and airlock nodes; two landing craft suitable for exploring celestial bodies; structural support members; truss structures; robotic arms; a propulsion module; and shielding curtains that are filled with pulverized asteroidal material and attached to the truss structure. This configuration provides substantial radiation and meteoroid shielding. Upon completion of their mission, the crew will use the robotic arms to disconnect and mate (1) the asteroid containing the control module, (2) the forward docking and airlock node, and (3) the propulsion module. This crew-return vehicle will return to cislunar space. The remaining expandable modules with trusses, robotic arms, and landing craft will remain in the destination orbit to serve as a space station for future missions.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

Malthus should send this to aunt and see what she thinks.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

From what I can tell, Piers is batshit.  I don't think we should expect coherence from him.

Agenda 21 is a paranoid fantasy that the UN is exterminate a large portion of the human race.  This is a good example of "horseshoe theory".  I have no idea if Piers is a crazy left-winger or a crazy right-winger.

Even he probably doesn't know.

Background he's a 'weather forecaster' part responsible for some of the red top newspaper weather 'predictions' headlines, oh and he's the elder brother of Jeremy Corbyn.

Well, I was going to say that "Dollar's to Donuts he doesn't like Jews."  I guess that would have been a little to on the nose.
