It took the Bee to get SNL to make me laugh.

"Coming out as non-binary was a small hurdle, but the greater hurdle is coming out as non-funny," Kearney announced in a 30-minute heartfelt SNL speech about inclusion and human rights. "I've known since I was a little girl that I was not funny. When I finally accepted this truth about myself, I knew I had to work for SNL."

The audience then solemnly nodded their heads silently and rose to their feet to applaud, affirming Kearney as a brave, non-funny identifying comedian.

Ah yes, non-binary, that very real thing that exists.

Spot on - that was super cringy and pathetic, especially for many who support trans rights.

They claim it's SNL's first non binary cast member, but that's not true.

There was Pat.

Pat had a "significant other" named Chris.

Chris eventually left Pat; for Terry.

Yeah, but Pat obviously wasn't the right kind of non-binary, that being the kind that they can wave around like a cute little fashion accessory to show off how quirky and totally not like the other straights they are.

I actually thought she was kinda funny until she said she was non-binary. I don't have anything against nb folks, I just think the whole thing is silly, but yeah, as soon as I found out, she lost any funny I had first noticed.

The fact that the author doesn't know how dates and years work. Made it a lot less funny...

You mean SNL is still a thing? If they are seeking to commit seppuku there are far more honorable ways to pull it off.

Going through life fat, non-funny and stupid is no way to go through life Pat.
