here's also a good video to be reminded of today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtFPLav3DYs
note: you'll have to clean up the fallout underneath your eye but once it's on there it stays pretty well, my under-eyes are looking especially grungy because this was immediately after i had physical therapy and my mascara was being complainey + didn't use any under-eye concealer, just bb cream today
it looks impressive but is really quick to do, and would be v cute for st patrick's day, especially if you do your lids green
PRO MAKEUP HAXX:
to make people think you've spent much more time doing your eyeshadow than you actually have, get a large 'toothbrush' style brush and a rainbow highlighter, put down some glitter eyeshadow primer, and then load up the brush with rainbow highlighter and roll it onto your eye all at once, then do the lid itself some other color since that's where it's not gonna transfer too good and fill in the edges with a brush as needed
and BAM! RAINBOW!
(selfies with eye contact follow)
ahsoka: is.........................that a compliment
anakin, distantly, several rooms away: YOU KNOW IT AIN'T, SNIPS
ahsoka: HEY PADME I KNOW IT'S LIKE 8AM BUT I BROUGHT SOMETHING TO HELP ANAKIN
padme: wh-
ahsoka: IT'S A THERAPY DOG
padme: oh, that's -
ahsoka: and by therapy dog i mean someone was giving away puppies but it's very soft and good to pet and that's basically like therapy right?
padme: ...ahsoka, understand that i love you like my own adopted daughter
padme: but this is the most on-brand "anakin's padawan" thing you've ever done
honestly i've been chewing on this star wars plot bunny for awhile, which is equal parts Anakin whump (bc it's always a good time) and Let's Engineer A Situation Where PADME Gets To Be The Scary One On The Warpath For Justice,
with a side order of "me getting on a soapbox going 'y'all know the jedi order is fucked up right'"
but also
just to like
write this scene:
"will it help if we put some of that spray-on glitter dust in our hair too"
the answer is always yes tbh
"but i don't wANNAAAAA go to physical therapyyy tomorrowwwww"
"what if we use our new purse? y'know, the one that's shaped like a gameboy with holo angel wings and 'game over' on it?"
"buuuut...."
"we can wear our rainbow leggings, too. and that pair of pink combat boots with the angel wings, if you want."
"....whiiiiiiine"
"and our xbox controller resin charm necklace? y'know, the one that's a little glittery and pink?
"okaaaaaaaaay i guess if we do thaaaaaaat i can gooooo"
some dude: "it doesn't matter what gender they are, so why are you complaining"
if it "doesn't matter" then: Let Me Be A Girl
me, as a video game vlogger or something: so, tell me about your game...
some game dev: well *talks about how it's made, the stor, cool technological and graphical things, the hard work of the team, etc*
me: can i be a girl?
sgd: well, no--
*camera pans towards me looking at it with my head tilted and a sweet smile*
me: 0/10
broke: gender roles
woke: put babies into blankets that look like tortillas and garnish with things like https://www.guineapigmarket.com/lettuce-lounger so that they become burritos
i think i've hit upon my new Standard Baby Shower gift
it's cute, funny, gender-neutral, and practical (at least in part)
gonna look for a kid sized version of https://www.amazon.com/Burrito-Blanket-Giant-Tortilla-Adults/dp/B01N05KZQY/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=throw+throw+burrito&qid=1551813405&s=gateway&sr=8-3&fbclid=IwAR2RQRxh7xCINx9T9ONcR0gwZ4Ns-gOoR5RMzGKcAHlkOJ0HTh2LQffNiKM and then plushies that look like tomato and lettuce. JUST SWADDLE YOUR BABY INTO A BURRITO
