I do have some autistic traits because of BPD...which clearly must be me taking the wrong brand of aspirin ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm not half as smart, gifted or talented as many of my friends with autism. Guess I didn't take enough Tylenol ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ™„

Yeah, I had to try three sites to cancel Disney+ but the runaround only made me more determined to do it.

Pleeeeease can people stop putting clothing on animals! It interferes with their natural processes (like grooming themselves and regulating their body temperature). It's not cute. It's unkind and selfish

If anyone needs me, Iโ€™ll be sleeping in the weirdest fucking position possible to ensure my cats have plenty of room

I've completed my therapy (beat the final boss, BPD), but somehow I'm only around people who need some. Which says something about me...just not sure what

That was awkward. Went to high five a friend and we missed and now our neighbours think we're Nazis.

In addition to my solo show, Singing, Sagging and Shagging, I'm also running a compilation show, different weird and wonderful acts each day - from drag kings and queens to musical comedy to oddball characters and more... basically, anything that isn't traditional standup but that's just as funny!

A cheeky, hilarious, mellifluous romp through one singerโ€™s colourful past of cult-loving husbands, wacky producers and shaggable therapists, with lusty vocals in bra busting style. 'Musical mayhem comedy: from weird uncles to zoom therapy, suffocating exes and Lizaโ€™s cabaret like youโ€™ve never heard, Barbara had the room singing and clapping along, while also keeping them in hysterics' (Kyle Wallace, G&B Comedy). 'What a show! One of the rare performances where everyone is in stitches and you leave with your cheeks hurting' (Audience review). 'She is fearless, endearing, raunchy and unflinching' (Torrey Shine).
