Reddit user @kitz2103 shared his 'Wizard of Oz'-inspired homemade costume to cheer up his wife who suffers from a chronic illness.

A loving and very creative husband took to Reddit to show off the Wizard of Oz-themed costume he made for his bedbound wife, and the internet lost its collective mind.

Reddit user @kitz2103 explained that his wife, Dianna Cowern (aka The Physics Girl), loves Halloween, but a chronic illness had left her unable to leave bed to celebrate. So he brought the celebration to her.


He wrote:

"My wife has been bedridden with a severe illness, but she loves to dress up for Halloween. So I made this costume for her."
"Seeing her smile made the under the fingernail cardboard paper cut almost worth it."

The man noted that he made the costume, but the idea was all his wife's. Since she's bedridden, she decided to dress as The Wicked Witch... of the East. Yes, the one that got crushed by a house.

The photos showed striped stockings and ruby red slippers peeking out from under a cardboard house that had clearly been battered by a harsh tornado landing.

Viewers were just as blown away as the house that flattened the witch.

By the looks of it, we'd say she approved!

Cowern's husband also posted pics, on her behalf, to X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, where she has been open about her struggle with long Covid.

Viewers there were equally impressed.

Just fantastic. Well done!

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
