I am learning, slowly, to respond to personal questions with, "Why are you asking?"
Because particularly when I mention I live in solo isolation in the pandemic, people are quick to demand my full medical history, pandemic survival strategy and accompanying citations, to satisfy their curiosity and/or to reply by telling me I am wrong, all with increasing frequency, and in aggregate it is unfathomably gaslighting and exhausting.
