I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Bluetooth. So it's not even visibly connected.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The link says most overpriced bikini, but really, it's diamonds. I don't know how "over" that makes the price.

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

I'm having a small panic attack thinking about buying something nice to wear for the reading. I can't go into clothing stores without getting mildly ill, and I can barely look at myself in a full length mirror.

What do i do to calm down?

I don't want to be panicked and lost in self-loathing before the reading, yet I have no way to feel confident in clothing. It's already starting and I'm losing my shit.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Do you have someone who can go shopping with you?

Now tagless for your comfort.

And who has a prescription for Xanex?

Skinny people don't get it, and that's all I've got.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful.

I have Xanax. But I'm driving, so that's not so good.

Get a shopping buddy/designated driver. I feel your pain--shopping for clothes is an emotionally draining experience for me, too, and never good for my self esteem.

I hope you find something that makes you feel fabulous.
