I'm trying to buy a coat. I don't actually own a coat other than the lined flannel I wear for chores if not in my insulated coveralls. All the coat choices suck.

I just want a plain, durable, warm coat that doesn't make me look like a goddamned class traitor and that does not involve the word "fashion" or a color that doesn't naturally occur on a sheep.

I think at this point I might just buy a pile of sheepskins and tie them to me with baling twine.

It's not that I can't afford a coat, it's that up until recently I couldn't afford a coat, and if I get a fancy new coat I'll be some kind of fancy new coat having asshole. Moving from financial instability to being all right is weird, ok?

Like for a long time I've been poor white rural southern trash from a long line of same. And now I'm not really poor. I could buy a coat.

But if I buy a new coat I'm a new coat buying asshole, and if I buy one at the thrift store I'm taking a coat from someone who can't afford a coat any other way. So I'm locked in this weird place where I just layer A LOT if I go somewhere that isn't the barn.

Me being me this often means I'm wearing layers of conflicting plaid and sometimes even my lined flannel barn jacket (also plaid) which has holes near the pockets where Reuben has tried to chew his way in for Cheerios

Get a coat and be warm, woman! Layers are good but coats are necessary in times of bullshit polar vortices.

Amazon is bad but they usually have cheap but decent clothes, if I recall.
