In the past I've replied to Myq's emails but I'll publicly reply (because I like Substack better than social media) and I love Myq and his comedy and am willing to let the world know it so I'll Re: All the world of everyone on the internet, not just to Myq.
I funny thing I learned (again) is that doing something badly is often funnier than doing it well, which is a paradox for me because I'm a comedian so I want to do *well* at comedy. You see the pickle I'm in? I have to be bad at comedy to be good at it.
Maybe an example will help.
I did a show where I was stripping but my shoes got caught when I tried to remove my leggings and I felt frustrated because I wanted to do this bit well. I chatted with the audience after and mentioned I should have removed my shoes before the leggings but they disagreed:
They LIKED that my shoes got caught.
As I'm a clown, I like when the audience likes me.
I guess the next time I strip I'll wrestle the leggings over my shoes again because the audience has spoken: bad is good. (in this context at least)
1) I’m good! Traveling during school break, visiting family for cousin time. Heart age is 3 years younger than actual age per Oura, which is a little concerned because I had thought it was 4.5.
2) Yeah! I’ll send a photo.
3) People mostly do it for social media photos now right? Not a fan when it disrupts people who have nothing to do with the putative cause. Seems very good when it’s a way for communities to find each other in the real world though.
I am glad I found your Stack. Substack suggested it actually, but I am glad I followed up. I am in favor of finding things--well, in favor of finding good things--and I think you are, too. A person might even say that you are profound; and I would not disagree.
Grandma used to say, can’t complain—no one will listen. Or maybe I said it. I say it now and she can’t complain cause she died almost 5 years ago.
That's funny. I love you and thank you!
I'm sorry I didn't get to meet this Grandma. ♡
i hear you, friend!
As someone who got stuck in an elevator for an hour during the 2011 Virginia earthquake, I, too am pro-Mitch Hedberg.

4) No.
5) A little bloated.
thank you for sharing as always, my friend!
Super excited to see McKinney on the tour!!
I'm so glad! I was there last July for the first time and loved it, so I'm excited to return!

Thanks so much for the kind words!
I'm glad Substack sub-jested it to you!
I appreciate you and am glad you're here!
You are very welcome and I love you very much! 💜
