Cringe

CRINGE — Sunday 26th Jul ‘26

I never really post this website anywhere. There is no one that I’m aware of that would have any reason to read it. I used to tell myself I like it that way, I can write into the void and not worry what anyone thinks of my silly thoughts.

But I don’t think that’s quite true, I think that frankly I worry a bit TOO much about what people think of these thoughts. I don’t consider myself to be a good writer, I do it because I enjoy it, but I think I am lying to myself if I said that I don’t think some of it is cringe.

Someone I used to know told me once “we are cringe because we are free”, she was joking, obviously, but it stuck with me. I think I assign the label cringe to myself all too often.

Maybe this writing is cringe. I don’t know, I’m not you so I can’t say. All I know is that I enjoy doing it, and to hide it away because I fear what some rando might think is frankly silly.

Anyway I’m going to start posting these to my story. Dip a little toe in the water. It’s not exactly gonna make national news is it, it’s just some stupid thoughts written on a stupid website by a stupid man.

In short, stupid beats cringe.
