smashbox makes a liquidy thing that turns any eyeshadow into a liner, iirc.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Here's a thing: Michael Raymond-James signs his emails "Mikey Ray" but I keep addressing him as Michael. Am I being rude? I...I can't seem to do the nickname thing. Tim said I could call him Timmy years ago. No. Is this one of those things where I'm being a douchebag? I trust you people to tell me these things.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sending good vibe to your DH, Liese. Glad he's OK.
ita !, that lunch sounds more good than weird. I like the idea that maybe I've grown up.
You are reminding me that I used to like that Black Honey Almost Lipstick. Now I want to buy it again.

Oo, now I want that too. Hmmm... oh Sephora...

ita ! I got a squeeze tube of black honey lip gloss - Sephora had it a while ago.
And, in regard to eyeliner, I don't like the way liquid eyeliners look on me - aside from my inability to put it on smoothly. I use a smudgey line of eyeshadow instead and I'm comfortable with the way it looks.

So my current job has hired my replacement! She starts the Monday after I leave.
Unfortunately, this makes me want to not come to work at all for the next 2.5 weeks.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Rock on, amyth, with that thing that you TOTALLY DID NOT MENTION!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Am I being rude?
I think so. But I'm very particular about what I'm called. Refusal to accept my choice of name bothers me.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I talked to a social worker about my brother today. They are trying to get him stabilized and back on his meds. But at least they won't release him from the hospital until then. I talked to her about finding him alternative housing rather than going back to my parents. Really, my dad is 72 and shouldn't have to barricade himself in his bedroom because he's afraid of his son.
Blergh. I think I also have a board meeting tonight but I don't want to go.

Just ask. Say "hey, I noticed that you sign your emails mikey ray and I've been calling you micheal. Do you prefer Mikey Ray? Micheal? Princess?"
And leave it at that. He might not care, but if he does, it's huge.

Refusal to accept my choice of name bothers me.
Man, at a party earlier this summer, an acquaintance greeted me with "Stephieeeeeee!!!!" and I took her head off. I didn't really mean to, but god damn it, how hard is it to just say the one fucking syllable? It's actually MORE DIFFICULT to append extra syllables. "Steph" = 1 syllable. Simple. "Stephanie" = more work. "Stephie" = also more work, and certain death.
Because I have never, ever, EVER introduced myself that way, nor does anyone with a lick of sense refer to me that way. So being greeted with "Stephieeeeee" made me go from pleasant to evisceration in 0.4 seconds.
I do feel bad about it. A rational person could just say, "You know, I really prefer Steph," and leave it at that.
(But I haaaaaaaaaates it.)
