Okay story time: I recently decided to look up Sam Tsui (I was watching Sing Off videos again, hush) and I found his cover of Take Me Yo Church by Hozier. Now, I can't watch Hozier's original video for that song, because it triggers me. Sam's video was just a calm acoustic in a parking garage, and for once I didn't have to worry about falling into a panic attack over a music video. So I commented as much, praising Sam for making a video for such an intense song that didn't negatively impact me. Then this DOUCHEBAG named Brian replied to my comment. Now, since his comment was deleted before I could actually read it, I'll only have the first few sentences to go on from the email notification. It went something like this: "If you're triggered by something fictional, you should go put yourself on drugs for it. Or better still, build a fucking bridge and get over it." And here's what I'd like to say to Brian in return: Do you get off on yelling at mentally ill people on the internet? Does it get your rocks off, knowing full well you might've just sent someone into a depressive episode, or a panic attack? Is this a joke to you? Do you think this is all proper funny, yeah, you got a right laugh outta this, didn't you? Do you realise that the original video for Hozier's song has a somewhat-graphic abuse scene? Do you realise SOME people have had a history of domestic violence in their lives? Do you realise that something like that doesn't just go away. You can't 'get over it', because it just follows you. You can't just dose yourself up, because as soon as you drop from that high, its right there. Not gone, just temporarily shut up. But by all means, go ahead. Tell me how invalid my emotions and my mental state are. Tell me how I ought to fork out money I don't have, to buy pills that don't work. Tell me how I should go see a shrink, spill my deepest secrets and fears to someone I've never met before. Go ahead. I bet you love it. You like this, you sick fucker. You're one of those men who like to make people feel shitty about themselves, just for a laugh. So go ahead, laugh it up. But next time, remember there's a reason your comment was deleted. Nobody gives two shits about whatever toxic sludge you're pouring out of your mouth. I hope the people around you can see you for who you are. A self righteous, bigoted, close-minded, arrogant, neurotypical bastard. Oh, and uh, happy holidays. You prick.

DO IT

Haha, this is something that I’m still trying to figure out myself. I especially find it frustrating to do up my eyes because I’ve got big, black emo glasses.  I got them ca. 2002 because Chester Bennington had them, and I’ve worn them and loved them ever since, but they do hamper me in the eye makeup department. The best I can possibly give you is 1: find a nice, basic mascara (not too long or dramatic, and most importantly one that doesn’t clump or look stubby or gross.  I use Maybelline Great Lash, and I think it’s a great place to start), and 2: acquaint yourself with lipstick. The good thing about glasses is that you don’t really need a ton of eye makeup to draw attention to your eyes, your glasses do that for you.  A bright, bold lip will help balance out your face and give you the color you’re probably looking for.  I still do put on some eye stuff; I like to wear colorful shadow and liner, just again keeping it simple, but mostly in the end I find myself coming back to the mascara and lipstick combo.  It’s a fact of life of living with glasses, and if you’re desperate to try some funky eye looks, consider investing in some contacts.

Amy! Hi! I’m doing alright. Not my best, unfortunately. How is your all-nighter going?
