legs til tuesday. you have to sew them whilst wearing them and most of the time your head is bent way over upside down and you stab yourself with the needle tho all of that could be avoided with the aid of a sewing machine. they’re kind of fucked up looking but what do i ever produce that isn’t?

hey,

i just read your blog post about the crazy man punching you.

what happened to you today is horrible and scary.

people rarely help if you are being harassed, which makes actually getting harassed way scarier because you realize A) this is actually happening right now and something needs to be done about it, B) no one is helping me even though they are RIGHT HERE SEEING IT HAPPEN, and then C) i am on my own to deal with this and i’m not sure what to do/what’s going to happen next.

one time this old man who was hugely muscled started harassing me on the ttc and while i tried to get him to leave me alone everyone completely avoided looking at me even though the train was pretty full.

finally i freaked at him because he was boxing me in where i was sitting/hovering over me and talking about his cabin in the woods and how i should go there and asking how old i was, etc etc

eventually i completely freaked out at him because i was scared of what would happen when i got off the train cus, like i said, no one would help but at least there were people around.

we got into a yelling fight and he ended up backing down and apologizing and i realized he was just really high and then everyone gave me these looks like ‘haha what a jackass’ as if they weren’t only concerned about their own asses seconds earlier like he was some super villain who could kill 50 people at once HELLO CAN YOU PLEASE SAY SOMETHING YOU STUPID SELFISH SHITS?

i was lucky he didn’t hurt me cus when ppl thought he might i became invisible.

anyway, i’m really sorry this happened to you and i hope your chest is alright. more than that i hope this hasn’t freaked you out too much about walking around your neighbourhood because i think an incident like that would make anyone extremely uncomfortable in their safe zone, especially since you’ve seen him before. stay strong and be safe. my thoughts are with you.

love amber

DISCUSS

ok here is the short version sort of

i kicked a crazy homeless guy on bloor cause he called me a fucking lying cunt for not giving him money and i kicked him with my shin not the toe of my boots and my shin is in serious pain anyway as he was blathering about me having kicked him and asking why i said cos you swore at me and then he full on sucker punched me in the chest right above my left breast and i still have a red mark from it and it hurts to breathe deeply tho my shin hurts ten times more, this was on bloor during daylight just east of brunswick and ZERO PEOPLE INTERVENED and there were at least 30 people standing aroundwho totally saw all of it. this guy was straight up harassing everyone for change, getting in their faces and i started out being polite but then i fucking SNAPPED and then he followed me 1.5 blocks afterward and once i reached for my phone he disappeared. he provoked me and kept in-step with me and then called me a fucking lying cunt after i repeated sorry and so i turned into him and kicked his shin with my shin, his shoe flew off and he punched me super fucking hard and this useless dude who initially was walking alongside me SPED UP just to ensure ZERO involvement.

i’ve seen this crazy homeless guy before too. i was planning on renting a movie but after that i sobbed lost it and went to victory and met with sharpie and samir.

i’m glad i didn’t get stabbed.

the end.

oh yeah i was too embarrassed to call fil and tell him about it but samir called him and told him to meet up with us and he did but not until he cruised up and down bloor several times looking for the guy in his car.

fil asked what i wanted to do about it ie call the police and report it and i was like DUDE I KICKED HIM FIRST. anyway it’s my first violent crazy homeless incident and the only thing i regret at this point is not punching him after he punched me i mean, i am a fast runner and the dude didn’t seem like he coulda kept up. seriously who punches a girl after they kick you after YOU call them a lying fucking cunt cos they don’t give you money?

ps. my skinny pants turned out good.

ok i just got advice from a 12 year old on how to make skinny jeans so i am going to do that right now i will be back later with the results.
