Please beg me to come to YOUR city in the comments, even if I’m already coming to your city and that city is actually just Portland, Oregon. 📸: @wondrashoots

RIP to my cousin Eric I mean it. This is the one joke that I said I would never post online, out of fear that it might upset my family. In the process of writing it, I realized that when my cousin passed, I not only grieved him - but I grieved the friendship we once had in our childhood. There’s an optimistic side of me that believes we could have kept spending summers together, overcoming our differences and continuing to laugh around the fire place. I’ll never know. But I *do* know that I spent most of my twenties haunted by the possibility that I was “next” to go. In college, I had a close call when a drunk driver ran a stop sign and totaled my friends’ car. I made it through with nothing but a few stitches in my tongue and something not quite (but adjacent to) survivor’s guilt. It’s not clear why the universe spared me, but I’m happy to still be here. Living life. Being myself. Doing comedy. And if anyone is upset about this joke, it was just a joke. Much like what he wrote in my daily planner. Much like how his father asked me at his funeral, as I was on the verge of tears, “So when are you coming out of the closet?” And much like all the jokes and memories we shared every summer vacationing on Lake Champlain. I still love you, cuz, despite it all. 🎥: @comedyinfocus 🎤: UNHINGED 📍: @showbar.pdx 📸: @emilyulshiskidding #portlandcomedy #griefandloss #comingout #bullying

After over two years, approximately 24 shows, and a whole lot of nonsense, our team will be taking a short break until we can find a new home. Thank you to EVERYONE who supported our openly absurd show throughout this time, especially those of you who came out last month for our unexpected season finale. We went out with a bang at our CHARACTER show, thanks to a tremendous lineup: • Big Dykin (@mx.dahliabelle ) • Ripper (@where.is.ripper.exe ) • Carrie (@subarulabubu ) • Tyler + Tyler (@daveppdx + @lilbatmancomics ) • Monique Michaels (@themoniquemichaels ) • Logan Loughmiller (@loganloughmiller ) • Amir Kat (@ohamirkat ) Plus, your hosts @jjs_iii and @imanigotmilk , who brought a WILD roster of characters to the main stage. Thank you to @janegerzone for holding down the tech booth and @lensssay_photography for making us look glamorous. And finally, the BIGGEST thank you to @queenofthedarned for being our anchor and believing in us even when our audience was in single digits. We may be back sooner than you think! So stay tuned in, stay exquisite, and yes, stay nonsense.

Days ten to thirteen of Blasting Hilary Duff’s “Why Not?” In My Car While Actively Ruining My Life Month. 1) I may be struggling with seasonal allergies, but that doesn’t mean I’m still not a MODEL. 2) The flowers are out, and my fave client is living!!! 3) Spuds MacKenzie t-shirt sighting in the movie Jules, which was actually quite sweet. 4) Lick your nose! 5) Need another round of She’s Alt That to exist in the world, so we can see @pisskingmacklee ’s full transformation. 6) You GOTTA gasp. 7) My beautiful children Awoogah (he/him) and Sam (she/they) loved watching me shine. 8) A chaotic king proving that he’s ready to step outside his comfort zone and take on more serious roles. 9) Constantly making the MOST normal faces on stage! I had so much fun officially doing @thebechdelset for the first time. 10) Say “hi” to this dog out loud, or you’ll have bad luck for 49 weeks (because his curses are very random). 11) Predictably, I cried at the series finale of The Comeback. What a truly magnificent ending to a magnificent show. 12) Blessed by the presence of this cat. 13) A perk of my Alt Styles comedy class getting cancelled is that I was able to head over to @atlantispdx for a Robin Williams drag show by @tackywackyinc . 14) Perfect dog. 15) Picked up a new sticker at @shop.lyko . 16) A woman who loves walking. 17) We need to talk about how I didn’t snap any buttons performing in this dress. I am brave. I am a hero. 18) This cat knows who’s in control. 19) Something to think about! 20) A non-binary icon headlining the slideshow.

Days five through nine of Blasting Hilary Duff’s “Why Not?” In My Car While Actively Ruining My Life Month. 1) Trying to keep up with running as much as possible, while also honoring my body and giving myself grace. 2) A non-binary icon living a life of luxury. 3) That thing where you almost take a perfect picture of your friends, but it’s out of focus yet also maybe still perfect. 4) A chaotic king in spring. 5) When @badinia asks if you want to dress up as a penny and march in the St. Johns Parade, you gotta say YES. 6) A leisurely stroll with this lad. 7) Finally watched the Funny AF finale, and my main takeaway is that @caitlinpeluffo is spectacular and deserves all the good things that are sure to come. 8) Honored to spend time with this legend. 9) This is a t-shirt from fifth grade. 10) Love my job (all forty of them that I need to stay afloat in our modern hellscape, insert concerning laughter here). 11) Speaking of jobs, @_rococote did an AMAZING job featuring at @nu_glitter , and we gotta applaud!!! 12) One of my fave clients, yet again being my fave. 13) Huge for the community (me) that I got to talk about “Fergalicious” at the @mcmenaminsalsden open mic. A stranger high-fived me on the way off stage. 14) A cutie delivering cuteness to your phone screen. 15) Once again, I have been lured into another season of Drag Race, and this first bracket is extremely fun. 16) An incredible find at @kentonantiques that activated my inner Bro John Sanchez III. 17) So happy that we’re back to the season when I can wear slutty cutoff denim shorts. 18) Could barely hold a conversation at @dotspdx , because I was Hakuna Matata, full of disco fries, and very distracted by the goofy retro cartoons. 19) A mysterious diva has entered the chat. 20) In conclusion.

When the church reveals your inner truth before you know it yourself. 🎥: @comedyinfocus 🎤: UNHINGED 📍: @showbar.pdx #portlandoregon #religioustrauma #theythempronouns #theholyspirit

I’ll be personally bullying every single person on this lineup to continue doing standup. 5) Had the best time celebrating @delphinedanger ’s birthday at the Clackamas Town Center. 6) Normal cat interlude. 7) Spoiler alert that this is my favorite piece of fashion from The Devil Wears Prada 2, and Anne Hathaway’s love interest was ENTIRELY unnecessary. 8) If you’re reading this, I regret to inform you that you missed your opportunity to celebrate International Jockstap Day. 9) Spent a morning with the best dog ever. 10) It’s really important for me to let you know that I ran TWICE in this four-day period (and also, panicked that I wasn’t eating enough in that same time range). 11) Hollywood, are you listening? Pitching a movie where @octaviaspencer reprises her role as MA and creates an unlikely alliance with Superman. 12) Goofy shot of this dog. 13) Riffed a lot at the @curiouscomedy open mic. 14) Dug this out of the trash, because I told @aimeecomedy it would be “great promo” for the Curious Comedy open mic. 15) Upside-down cat interlude. 16) Advice from Valerie Cherish. 17) Huge news! Posting flowers is good again. 18) Necessary pic of this dog in his bow tie. 19) If you’re ever wondering why I’m like this. 20) Exclusive outtake to expose my imperfections and treat my fans to a behind-the-scenes look at my creative process.

Because people were starting to worry that I’m too hot and perfect. 20) The greatest film of all time. 21) Thank you to @jdmurphycomedy , @yuungsaucelord , and @aimeecomedy for a few of these pics!

there seems to be no end to the controversy surrounding the house of danger, but if you're not at the show you're only getting half the story (and it's the boring half) keep your eyes peeled for upcoming dates!
