I wanted pay tribute to Duncan Sheik whose music was a big part of my 20s so here is the post that does that. He was one of the good ones and will be missed by so many. rabiahcomedy.substack.com/p/a-conspira...

Nailed in. Finally an impersonation I can do really well and the audience agrees. Thank you Senator Mitch McConnell. The safest we have been in decades was when you were missing for months this year!

Just took a break from the world and saw “Tony”. It was really extraordinary from the directing to the costuming to the acting. Delicious and beautiful even when it was raw. Still choked up as I ride the bus to my Fringe gig. #tony #cinema

POV: American comic at Edinburgh Fringe - compere/audience go beyond the joke when talking about America. you’re up next. American comic next to you wants to leave. You handle it w/o alienating the room. Other groups have it worse (antisemitism and Islamophobia) but FFS.

Pete Hegseth wants everything "straight", including the strait. And he is bringing the testosterone. It's a new kind of T party!
Strait of Hormuz map background with overlaid text that says “After learning the traffic through the strait of Hormuz was bidirectional, Pete Hegseth ordered it to take a testosterone test.”

I was out of the game for a month which felt strange but then a few minutes on stage changed that. And…I won the duck at The Laugh Bath (one of my favorite (favourite) nights and where I run into the brilliant James O’Donoghue! Thanks for having me on again Isaac. It’s always a fun night.

New ep of More Than Work! MRI physicist Bhavana Solanky on using physics to understand MS, going from astrophysics to brain scans, and why getting outside your comfort zone matters. Great conversation. 🎙️ pod.link/morethanwork...

The image shows guest Bhavana Solanky smiling on a video call, with host Rabiah Coon visible in a small inset window in the top left.

It’s AI. I needed a photo for a fundraiser. I’d love to raise a lot for Overcoming MS in &if I hit my goal, I’ll fundraise for the MS Society too. I’m committed to getting back in shape. If you want to help, donate. Otherwise, enjoy this androgynous looking image. www.justgiving.com/page/rabiah

This isn’t my Edinburgh Fringe poster. It’s just me. I guess ChatGPT doesn’t think I’m in charge because it really looks like a doctor, not like a deity. Please note that I’m not a doctor. I do heal people with laughter. But not medically.

Both parties are doing the right thing for once. It is about damn time too. SA of staff or sexual coercion are bad enough in the White House. Good riddance to it in Congress. Buh-bye to Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales.

Easter morning. The President of the United States sent this on Truth Social. I checked to make sure it wasn’t AI before sharing. And this needs to be shared. He is unhinged and needs to be removed from office immediately. He is now on record saying he will commit war crimes.

In the spirit of Live Comedy Day , revisiting one of my first gigs in 2019. 600+ gigs and about it 50 pounds later, I’m still at it wanting to make people laugh and maybe think once in a while too. I smile more on stage. My jokes are written tighter. But my fashion sense hasn’t evolved.

Kristi Noem tried but Bryon did it. He became the bimbo of the family. While Kristi Noem was running ICE, Bryon was running into his bimbo era. (And yes I used a Mexican bakery logo to make fun of them)

Found my ITMFA (Impeach the Mother F****** Already) badge (thanks Andy Borowitz) from the last time we needed that or the 25th Amendment. Just in time for the No Tyrants (since there is a King here) march tomorrow. I find protests stressful but authoritarianism more stressful. If you go out be safe.
Striped hoodie with two buttons pinned on. One says Be Good. One says ITMFA.

Comics mentioned working out at the gig last night. When I realized I didn’t bring the right jacket to wear on stage they gave me the perfect excuse for how I looked too!

TikTok opens with the front-facing camera on and this looked cool. I decided people should see it and also know I am not looking forward to Trump’s State of the Union address. It is going to be stupid.

Traveling with dietary restrictions…maybe he was testing me. The bread did look tasty. Marrakech has been great overall. Super accommodating and lots of options. This would have been weird in any city.

Happy Valentine’s Day! This Hinge man likes my photo. How exciting. It isn’t as good as his which was taken in a disabled toilet. I guess I’ll stay single until someone who doesn’t take photos in the mirror of a public toilet comes along.

Black excellence. Trump is absolute garbage. He is a racist and a rapist. He’s President but he is not a leader. I don’t care if this post upsets you because that means you’re upset by this, not by his actions. The post he made about the Obamas today is unforgivable. And so is everything else.

On the opening day of Melania, I performed standup comedy at a cinema and there were more people in the gig. Made the right choice. Never going to see the Brett Ratner film about one of Trump‘s enablers who is also in the Epstein Files. Makes for good topical humor though.

I attended a vigil tonight for Alex Pretti, Renee Good and all who have lost their lives due to ICE actions. It was held at the US Embassy in London. The full list of names was read. We stood together in grief and solidarity. I long for peace and safety for those protesting Trump and ICE.

Just got my daily reminder that LGBTQ+ people face constant microaggressions. This one: A nickname caused a kid to be gay. It can't just be that he is gay because some people are gay. Bi people are really gay by the way. Learned that at Thanksgiving. Shame spiral initiated again. Happy Holidays.

Last night I did stand-up comedy for neurologists. At an Away Day for the @camneurodept.bsky.social , it genuinely mattered to be in a room where lived experience was welcomed alongside research. Thank you for listening, engaging & working with the MS community @mssocietyuk.bsky.social + others.
