Homophobia is a tough one. In some places it's actually very OK to be homophobic. Comedy clubs in general are very unsafe spaces for LGBT, for women, for Asian people. So my goal in comedy has sort of been to make this a safe space for people who were like me.

I love New York. I love working here.

I love Wilco's "I'm the Man Who Loves You." Nels Cline has that weird guitar slide at the beginning and the song is whispered actually.

I have a song about how much I hate emojis and the lazy thinking of people who use them. I wish that more people had respect for the English language.

We women are constantly at war with our bodies, it is hard to find amnesty for ourselves.

If you have sex, it should be for you, not for the other person.

This was an era where I was going out every night seeing Sparks, Berlin, Duran Duran, and Split Enz. Amazing acts doing really weird stuff, and I was very open to music and letting it transform me.
