This reminds me of an especially funny Eddie Izzard bit

Just in case you don't know, she's Suzy Eddie Izzard now. I was surprised when I found out because I recognized her in a TV role but hadn't heard anything about it. I've always liked that bit about "women's clothes" for being very affirming, but now it has a little extra layer of comedy.

I didn’t know, and I know it’s complicated, but if you wanna do a whole explanation, post, go right ahead. Cause a lot of people don’t know.

on a largely left leaning social platform, filled with older nerds and trans-allies communities you didn't think there'd be a large number that knew of the most famous trans comedian?

Do you also think that you're the only one who one knows of the niche and little known comedy group Monty Python?

i just had a root canal. there's only so much being told i'm wrong (in a good way) i can take in a day (because advil and jim beam and pharmaceutical anesthetics and weed mix in unpredictable ways)

and i had to deal with my mom, who is


so awful.

That was definitely the intent.

Surprised you knew which one I meant, since “especially funny” doesn’t really narrow it down when it comes to Eddie Izzard 😛
