Ridiculous life skills

[cupcake_goth]

Can I remember passwords? The names of people I've been introduced to a couple of times? No, of course not. Why would I need to do that?

Can I identify, down to the product line name, most 90s and early 00s mass-produced goth fashion? Of course I can. I've been able to do that for a while.

But can I now identify which straight-from-the-jar, no-custom-mixing-involved glitter colors are being used by both indie and mass-produced cosmetic companies? Well, I can now, thanks to making orders from TKB Trading and Bulk Glitters.

Related to cosmetic glitter, I have become a recentish convert to pressing loose pigment and glitter into metal pans. (TKB Trading sells all the supplies, including the pressing medium to mix with.) This, in addition to prying MAC shadows from the pots, means I have built a custom makeup palette. Because you can buy empty magnetic makeup palettes from Amazon! That the metal pans securely stick to! Truly, we live in the future; when the apocalypse happens, I'm going to be set for painting all of us up to awe or intimidate the other compounds.

Good, bec. my makeup skills are crap! I'll work on our compound's PR campaign or something. Or sewing, if I must!

I no longer have to remember most passwords - just the math algorithm I used to create them. Has made my brainmeats a bit easier to manage.

If this just doesn't scream 'Dwayne!', I don't know what will.

Watching, The Rain on Netflix right now. Those apocalypse survivors could really use some glitter. You know there has to be at least one person with mad skills in survival and glam.
