welcome to standup desk, where your favorite comics stop by the @nowthis office and try to disrupt the workspace in a different way than the tech bros mean. thanks for distracting us from our emails, @meredith 🍉 ✨🎤

It's just harrowing. Look at me. I'm really disrupting a workspace right now in a different way than the tech rose bean. Growing up, everybody-- now, everyone thinks that I'm white passing? Yeah, sorry. More specifically, everyone thinks I'm Sean White passing? I did say that joke, but it's one time in front of a group of straight friends, and they all were like, girl, no, sorry. They're straight. They said, brother, you don't look that much like gold, metal, Olympian, snowboarders, and white, but I said it in front of a group of gay friends, and they did look me up and down, and they were like, girl, who the hell is Sean White? I did go to middle school during the peak of a little something called Ginger's Have No Soul. Compare that to the rest of school yard bullying. That kid dresses weird. That guy's a teacher's pet. How is the next logical leap that I'm not going to walk alongside you guys in the king of heaven? Did my school have kick a ginger day where I got kicked a lot, of course? But was I kicked because I had a red hair? Or was I kicked because maybe I was the kid who insisted on speaking in Purcellton, this snake language from Harry Potter? Did me trying to get you guys laugh? I'm like, silas. Doing that to silence is one of the loneliest feelings I've ever felt. (laughing)
