hello people1 who like reading these words,2
today i’m going to tell you about an online show i’m headlining two weeks from today (june 24),3 but first i’ll share some fun joke-type things that i’m excited to share with you because i like them a lot and i like you a lot.
1) you’ve heard of off-color jokes? well, this one is ON color:
new comedians who are too green
often overcompensate by being more blue
in order to appear less yellow4
2) read this one as slowly as you choose:
i like that my meditation app
allows me to listen at double speed
so i can relax faster5
3) one from the past shared here in the present that you can enjoy into the future:
in my spare time
i've been working on a 4D printer
that prints more spare time6
those are the jokes!
and now, as promised, some information about upcoming shows!
