Fashion Industry
Even in the MsPaint parallel universe, the unrealistically well drawn images in fashion magazines chip away at the body images of young stick figures the world over. Growing up as a stick figure, a girl might get the wrong idea when confronted by more realistic depictions of women wearing little or no clothing. If you happen to be a stick figure, please do not be fooled into thinking that you have less value just because you don't have the same curves and light sources as the subjects of realism or more sophisticated animation.

What I'm wearing
Tonight, I decided to exit my recent slump of sweat pants, hoodies, and not leaving the house. I feel alive and very well. It's 3:15 in the morning and raining, but I feel like going fishing or something. Isn't that always how it is right after being sick? Well, whatever.
Today's outside contact consisted of poking my head in a local bar to say hello and getting delicious foods at the grocery store. I guess I'll have to settle for baby steps. But my recent affliction is not what I came here to write about today. "Here" I guess means my home, since I'm at home.
Now, I may have spent the last few hours reading medical entries on Wikipedia and watching Randall Munroe on Authors@Google. But I insisted on doing it in style.
I think what's really cool about my wardrobe is how little I paid for most of it. My entire outfit probably cost about $20 (except for my watch, which was about $30). Everything I'm wearing, except my watch, underwear, and undershirt came from thrift stores. Here is a picture of what it would look like if I still frequented thrift stores, but had less choosiness when I shopped:
