After high school, I really learned to love myself. I finally stopped getting bullied by straight people. Then, I pretty much immediately started getting tormented by gay people for my taste in music.

I was fully burnt out - and in some ways I think that was good, because I was just fully numb.

I think there is gay comedy, because I think most gay comics are very very very in touch with that identity.

Being an Asian person on SNL,' when people are like, 'Why did it take so long?' It's sort of a question that doesn't fully understand the idea that there is no developmental experiential process for a queer Asian person to get into comedy in a way that feels inevitable.
