Me: sometimes I stay up all night and I don't go to bed. It's called "bonus time".

My loved ones: no it's not.

I'm not "wasting time scrolling social media." I'm gathering telemetry.

Me to God:

Alt: Michael Scott whispers “don’t you dare”

everybody’s jealous of me since I decided to get plastic surgery to have Cuttlefish skin. they‘re resentful because I camouflage myself as a brick wall or a gorseberry bush in order to steal their croissants off their plates at cafes. I’ve never felt so beautiful

Whenever I’m feeling down I like to listen to commercials in other languages and pretend I’m on vacation

I'm feeling kinda depressed lately but I'm not sure why. Maybe if I do a mental checklist of everything going wrong in my life I'll get to the bottom of this. Wait. Oh no. Never could have anticipated this but that actually made it worse

cursed pac-man tattoo roams my flesh at night, gobbling moles and freckles, whispering "you're next, blinky" in my ear

As long as it’s clever, it is divinely allowed

I believe that we should be afforded the same grace and dignity in death that we gave our perceived enemies in life. So when I die, you can talk SO much shit. Just roast the hell out of me

no, CBC has the rights to it so I can't post it myself I can only promote it (and post what clips they give me)

Isabel Zaw-Tun @izzyzaw.bsky.social · 20d

oh dang, I thought because it's JFL it would have international reach! That makes me sad. There are clips on their Instagram like this one: www.instagram.com/cbcgem/reel/...

CBC Gem on Instagram: "Isabel Zaw-Tun loved every second of giving birth Watch @isabelzawtun’s full set in the latest season of The New Wave of Standup, now streaming on CBC Gem 🎤"

In this hilarious standup comedy set, Isabel Zaw-Tun shares her unapologetic love for giving birth, embracing the attention and affirmation that comes with it. Watch her full set on CBC Gem.

Oh dang! I'm so sad! We've been hit by the comedy tariff

ALSO they cut my favorite line from the set, because it criticized British colonialism. In case you're wondering why I'll never be famous (set is still great tho)

Isabel Zaw-Tun @izzyzaw.bsky.social · 20d

I just want to be a goober independently of "the hustle!"

Do you think unbending Clippy until he was a long piece of metal would be painful for him. Or do you think it would cause him to feel a great sense of relief

I love obsessively rehearsing interactions with cashiers then getting to the front of the queue and saying "have a nice thank you" and leaving without paying

I can’t believe I spent my whole life building a giant bear trap and laughing at people who got caught in it, yet when *I* got caught in it? People laughed at me????? Can’t believe how hateful and violent the world is

I would argue, MORE important; if you carefully examine the tone of the original you’ll hopefully realize that was my snarky intention all along
