THANK YOU Juju!!! I worked hard on this piece so I'm grateful to hear you like it! As for Taylor, bad bangs are who she is, and we worship her for it! May we all embrace our "bad bangs," metaphorically.
I’m a professional writer and I own a notebook specifically for all the cringey things I want to put on a page. It’s hiding in my closet. I would probably die if my husband found it. But you know what? Every once in a while I flip back to re-read something and it strikes me as profoundly lovely. It’s wild how the really great stuff lives so close to the cringe!
Needed to hear this today after posting my first newsletter (so cringey)! Thanks Jillian. ❤️
CONGRATS on posting your first newsletter! Cheers to many more to come!
Are you kidding? This is the most epic piece I have ever read about cringe, and that’s including this The Atlantic piece about Taylor Swift being cringe (here if you want it: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/07/millennial-cringe-taylor-swift/678874/). Always killing it Jillian!

That's genius! I love that you're in relationship with your cringe. Maybe bring some of those ideas into the light sometime :)
