Core thought
Updating a profile photo can make a person compare themselves with a version they never meant to preserve.
Real-world trigger
Changing an account image for a website, work profile or author page.
Specific detail to use
The old photo is bright enough to be flattering and old enough to be dishonest.
Discomfort or tension
Ageing, vanity, confidence and the irritation of having to make a public choice about your own face.
Why it fits I Said
It is too personal for Bleh and too small for Monologues, which makes it right for a sharp I Said note.
Output direction
Plain snippet with no reassurance at the end.
