yoo, I saw that Chemmy Alcott story about getting banned for a wardrobe choice. made me think about how I once got sent home from work for wearing something "inappropriate." my boss didn’t get my creativity; they just saw the “wrong kind of confidence.” I'm here, struggling to make rent and can't even express myself without being criticized. just want to blend in, but that’s not happening anytime ...
