I haven't written anything in ages. I feel as though I am slipping into the tide of comfortable ignorance. That disturbs me, to a great extent. I compose from pieces of oblivion and the very edge of consciousness. Shortages of matters of consequence, and drippings of life and lack thereof fluttering as would a shutter. Glimpses of the past, present, and future as they are now and were and never will be.

There was this funny question I used to ask myself: "Who are you and what have you done?"

Once upon a time I could not answer that. Now I can answer it partially...parts of me giggle with a remembrance of the former self--the naivete, ambivalence, and whimsical sprite that she once was, once upon a time. Reduced to a husk, you are now, my child, a sully husk! Remnants of once thrived stick to the core in tattered chunks, festering into a sort of emotion-driven parasite, reminding the heart of its follies.

Who am I? I sordid creature, tethered to her humanity and antisocial tendencies, thriving within her mind--a sort of chamber to find solace from the exterior whenever she can. Extending her arms to create and physically manifest a sliver of her being into reality.

What have I done? Nothing of substance, as of late. Push harder...move faster....keep running...and that too shall change.

Thoughts are running on empty...but that is what happens when insomnia strikes and leaves you without a hint of comfort.

What is this I don't even....

Usually I don't get involved with ignorant nonsense. Usually I laugh at it and continue on about my way. I'm not angry...moreso still in shock. I'm sure what I am about to post comes as no surprise to the majority, but unlike the majority who are aware, I was so close to being sucked into a cesspool of greed and lies to which there would be no escape. Unless I happened to carry a flamethrower or something equally devastating. Then I'd be okay. I'm not going to rant too terribly much. I'm just going to say this:

Lime Crime. Yep. That's it. Almost bought it because I thought the founder of aforementioned company had changed her ways. Nope. Newwwp. Not in the slightest. No matter how you dress a person, their mind is still just that: theirs. Oh well. Time to invest my money elsewhere. I could care less about the vegan claims and all the huff that raised. I'm not vegan. But I do give a shit about poor business practices and campaigning as a whole. Sorry lady, you're not getting a cent from me. If you wanna know what's been going on with LC, Google it. There's enough coverage out there on...well...everything--enough to write a few books in fact, I'm sure.

 Anyway. Positives! I have a Makeupbee account. I don't post often as some others due to being very busy with life circumstances and all, but it exists. Feel free to add me. :3 At some point, I'm going to stop being lazy and post an actual profile pic. And do some work with this layout. And maybe do some photos. I really don't do reviews. I'm more of a visual person, being an artist, so the only thing in makeup I truly care about is color payoff, longevity, and quality, though I'm sure the former would go into quality as well. Same goes for clothing, although black is just my thing. I don't have much else but neutrals, heh. Amelia of A is for Arsenic is pretty awesome too, on a side note. I'd been following the duo [before she and Zoog added three others to currently form a quintet] and didn't really catch on to the aesthetic side of things until I'd heard about Miss-X Cosmetics. There weren't many reviews on it, however, and it more or less just faded into the background. I would have invested in the cosmetic line if there were more coverage on it from bloggers, but eh...oh well. The jewelry is pretty sweet though. I love innovative products, so I'd like to get my hands on a few. Tentacle Threads is another company that touts some pretty sweet accessories. My style is pretty odd so it'd go well with mine. Whenever I have time and a want to snap pictures of my usual looks, I shall. Until then...stare at this:

I for one thought it was hilarious. Eh? Eh?

Nonsense!

I suppose this could be considered an introduction. Then again, I could be bored. Pick one. Or both. At any rate, I more or less decided to contain my affinity for strange musings and a penchant for photo-dumping in one cozy area. I may post drawings. Or tumblr garbage. Or makeup looks. Or porn. Well...maybe not porn. Maybe.

I digress.

I could post anything. Everything. Or nothing. Perhaps something insightful or perhaps something completely nonsensical and stupid. At any rate, enjoy! ~♥
