— Appears in: Pencilled In , no. 1 2017; (p. 56-59) 'I'm sitting at a picnic table watching him and he's ticking all the boxes. Cute, compassionate, friendly.

Mostly, I wanted to understand my self-critical thought patterns and compulsive behaviours surrounding “beauty labour”. There are several physical features I dislike about myself that I consistently work hard to improve or manage: body, skin, hair, just to name a few. Was the amount of time and money I poured into beauty regimes going to increase as I got older?' (Introduction)
