    “"Cringe" is a relatively new term, but the feeling behind it certainly isn’t. What Gen Z calls "#cringe" is the very human, timeless fear of rejection. What’s changed is the scale at which that #rejection can happen — and how permanent and #public it can feel. Being earnest means to risk #misunderstanding. […] Being #open at all means being evaluated and #judged.”

  6. Misunderstanding

    I didn't think it was a big deal. Just a small communications issue. I told them I'd take care of it. Everything would work out fine. I told them I knew sign language so it wouldn't really matter. They didn't listen. At least they let me keep it. I have it in a jar by the side of my bed. Really, the only drawback is that I can't taste my whiskey anymore.

  11. Hmm - sensitive are we Labour? It is not *only* muslims who are furious at your behaviour towards Gaza - and a lot of other things as well. But 500 letters won't come close to how many of us feel. Not that I have the opportunity to express my opinion on Thursday - but wait until May.

    If you can keep your head when about you are losing theirs, it’s just possible you haven’t grasped the situation.

    Jean Kerr (1922-2003) American author and playwright [b. Bridget Jean Collins]
    Essay (1957), “Introduction,” Please Don’t Eat the Daisies

    I am so very sorry about my tempest of emotions recently. I swear that this is not me, and not who i want to become permanently.

    Hopefully, I can forget whatever was troubling me and forgive more easily.
