Pete Buttigieg was elected mayor of South Bend, Indiana in 2011 and 2015. In April 2019, he announced his candidacy in the 2020 U.S. presidential election as a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, but dropped out in March of 2020 and endorsed Joe Biden. A graduate of Harvard University and an Oxford Rhodes Scholar, Buttigieg enlisted in the U.S. Navy Reserve. He became a lieutenant when he was deployed to Afghanistan in 2014. If he had been elected as President, Buttigieg would have become the youngest and first openly gay president in U.S. history.

Halloween is celebrated with a friendly greeting of trick or treat where people who knock on doors are rewarded with sweets or novelty items. To help with his notoriously difficult-to-pronounce surname, the candy-corn "Boo" acts as the lead-in to Boo-tig-ieg.

MoveOn is a progressive organization with two arms: Civic Action (a nonprofit corporation that coordinates efforts from the bottom-up) and Political Action (a committee that raises funds for liberal politicians). It was founded in 1998 by software makers Joan Blades and Wes Boyd, who passed around a digital petition opposing President Bill Clinton’s impeachment. The success of the digital format inspired the two to launch a grassroots organization the helped promote liberal causes and support liberal candidates. Some of the main issues tackled by MoveOn during the twenty-first century included the Iraq War and censorship of the documentary Fahrenheit 9/11. More recently, MoveOn endorsed Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders for the 2020 Democratic primaries, helping to plan and execute hundreds of events. Neither candidate, however, went on to secure the presidential nomination.

Aquaman (Arthur Curry) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Created by Paul Norris and Mort Weisinger, the character debuted in More Fun Comics #73 in 1941. Initially a backup feature in DC's anthology titles, Aquaman later starred in several volumes of a solo comic book series. Though arguably not as iconic as Batman or Superman, Aquaman is one of few superheros to remain in continuous print since the Golden Age of comics.

In 2011, Aquaman was rebooted as part of a relaunch of the DC superhero comics "The New 52". Aquaman's story followed Arthur after he abdicated the throne of Atlantis and became a full-time superhero. This series also featured redesigns of most of the major characters including Aquaman, whose new belt buckle is pictured here. In recent years, Aquaman has also appeared in the DC film universe portrayed by Jason Momoa, most recently in his solo film in 2018.

Initially a backup feature in DC's anthology titles, Aquaman later starred in several volumes of a solo comic book series. The end of the 1950s saw the beginning of the Silver Age of comic books, and the reintroduction of Aquaman into Adventure Comics. It was in issue #260 (1959) that he appeared with a new character design featuring the simplified "A" on his belt pictured here. Though arguably not as iconic as Batman or Superman, Aquaman is one of few superheros to remain in continuous print since the Golden Age of comics.

In 2016, Aquaman was rebooted along with the entire DC Universe as part of the Rebirth series, which included a relaunch of weekly issues of comics and focused on creating a connected DC Universe. This came at the same time that Aquaman (portrayed by Jason Momoa) made his first appearance in the DC film series Justice League.

Aquaman (Arthur Curry) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Created by Paul Norris and Mort Weisinger, the character debuted in More Fun Comics #73 (November 1941). Initially a backup feature in DC's anthology titles, Aquaman later starred in several volumes of a solo comic book series. During the late 1950s and 1960s superhero-revival period known as the Silver Age, he was a founding member of the Justice League. In the 1990s Modern Age, writers interpreted Aquaman's character more seriously, with storylines depicting the weight of his role as king of Atlantis. The character's original 1960s animated appearances left a lasting impression, making Aquaman widely recognized in popular culture and one of the world's most recognized superheroes. Jokes about his wholesome, weak portrayal in Super Friends and perceived feeble powers and abilities have been staples of comedy programs and stand-up routines, leading DC at several times to attempt to make the character edgier or more powerful in comic books. Modern comic book depictions have attempted to reconcile these various aspects of his public perception, with many versions often casting Aquaman as serious and brooding, saddled with an ill reputation, and struggling to find a true role and purpose beyond his public side as a deposed king and a fallen hero. Aquaman has been featured in several adaptations, first appearing in animated form in the 1967 Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure and then in the related Super Friends program. Since then, he has appeared in various animated productions, including prominent roles in the 2000s series Justice League, Justice League Unlimited and Batman: The Brave and the Bold, as well as several DC Universe Animated Original Movies. Actor Alan Ritchson also portrayed the character in the live-action television show Smallville. In the DC Extended Universe, actor Jason Momoa portrays the character in the films Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League, and Aquaman.

The Midwest Institute for Human Understanding was a “multidisciplinary TA training program” developed by psychotherapist Bill Holloway in 1972. TA stands for transactional analysis, which is a psychological theory put forth by Eric Berne that claims we can best understand ourselves by examining the transactions we have with other people. TA has its roots in Freudian psychoanalysis, with Berne asserting that there are three “ego states”—the Parent, Adult, and Child—which are shaped during childhood. Holloway founded his program after attending TA training sessions put together by Bob Goulding and joining the International Transactional Analysis Association. The Midwest Institute for Human Understanding was discontinued when Holloway moved from Ohio to California in 1977. Holloway later relocated to Brazil when U.S. popularity in TA began to wane.
