You don’t owe prettiness to anyone. Not to your boyfriend/spouse/partner, not to your co-workers, especially not to random men on the street. You don’t owe it to your mother, you don’t owe it to your children, you don’t owe it to civilization in general. Prettiness is not a rent you pay for occupying a space marked ‘female’.” ―Erin McKean

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🦃

I just adopted a word on the online dictionary Wordnik, and you'll never GUESS what I chose!

That's right, Bo Burnham! 👀

I also recently posted a VERY long but entertaining list of fun facts about myself on my website. I wanted to show you all who I am and how I ended up creating Stand-Up Comedy Historian.

Every item in the list is 100% true (yes, I know ESPN's Dave McMenamin AND the Angry Video Game Nerd personally). And Erin McKean, founder of Wordnik (where I adopted "comedy"), was my lexicography mentor at Oxford University Press!

Finally, I wanted to tell you all how grateful I am for your support during the most difficult year of my life.

Things are starting to finally be looking up, and I can't wait to share more articles with you in December and in 2024—lots of comedy fun is planned, so stay tuned! ✌🏼🐔

sarahurie  🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 #Repost @annakendrick47 with @repostapp. ・・・ In honor of tonight’s amazing performance by Sarah Paulson on The People vs OJ Simpson (give her all the Emmys already) and #internationalwomensdayI present this wonderful quote. It’s been wrongly attributed to Diana Vreeland, from what I can tell it’s actually from a woman named Erin Mckean. Whoever said it, it rocks and cuts deep and it reminds me that we should strive to be brave. I’m going to try to be better every day. My next post will be extra cynical to make up for this accidental foray into sentimentality.
