Had to delete my last video about outmaneuvering the algorithm because it got flagged. Some of you didn’t even listen to the video and made comments that alerted X. So everyone please tell those who make inappropriate comments how you feel about me having to take post down. Ok…...

It’s about time I tell you the truth… social media is full of fake people doing whatever they can to go viral, look perfect, and build a brand. I built my brand on being the tall girl (with a dumpy). Not many women my height have the proportions I do and I capitalized on that. Except… that’s just it. I don’t have those proportions as a 6’2 woman because I am only 5’2. The reason I only don’t go out much and never socialize with fans is I didn’t want my secret getting out. It’s been hard to maintain this idea of being a tall girl for so many years. I have to stand on boxes in pictures with my friends and family and never be caught in a high angle selfie. I have special extra small furniture to make me appear larger. Even my doors are shorter than standard. The amount of effort I have to go through to appear as a 6’2 tall woman and make it believable is incredibly hard. And so many people have already caught me too! They constantly comment that I’m lying about my height and that I’m actually short. Well. Today they get that moment of victory where they can say they were right. Congrats, trolls and haters… you found me out. I guess the last thing for me to say is the reason behind doing this. Why I poured so much into an identity that didn’t fit me. If you made it this far, then you deserve to know. Why did I pretend to be a 6’2 model with curves that aren’t naturally seen on someone of that stature? Why didn’t I embrace my 5’2 frame and stop pretending nothing ever fit me in clothes and that the top of the fridge really was a difficult reach? There’s only one answer to that. It’s because… it’s April fools, and admit it, you fell for it. I am 6’2, as much as people try to convince me and others I’m not. I’m blessed with some crazy genetics and I love embracing that (most of the time I’m just complaining but you know how it is). Leave a comment about how today is a great day if you read through the whole thing and Happy April Fools! Remember, never believe everything you see on the internet, because everyone is trying to convince you of something. #AprilFoolDay

For me, a small gesture in this brief video shows what kind of person Pope Francis was. Last summer, Pope Francis was reported to have used an Italian-language slur for LGBTQ people and made some negative comments about gay priests. It seemed so out of character with the person I knew, had met and corresponded with, and who had always expressed his desire to care for LGBTQ people pastorally. Not long after these reports, in June, I was at the Vatican, having helped to arrange a papal audience for comedians. A few days before that audience, I met with the Holy Father at the Casa Santa Marta and we talked about his comments. For me, it was hard to bring up the topic, but a cardinal friend of mine encouraged me. But Pope Francis seemed eager to talk about it and told me he knew many holy and faithful gay seminarians and priests, and encouraged me to share his comments publicly, which I did (after asking him a few times exactly how to word it). And it turned out that he didn’t realize how offensive the slur was and said he’d never use it again. After that, the conversation turned to other, more relaxed, matters: the US church, the Synod, and so on. It happened to be the 25th anniversary of my ordination to the priesthood and so before leaving Casa Santa Marta, I knelt down and he blessed me. As always, it was a great gift to be with him. A few days later, at the papal audience for comedians, along with the rest of the guests, I was invited up to greet the Holy Father in the Sala Clementina, which was captured in this video. You can see that I thank him for inviting me and my laughing because we joked about my being a "famous American comedian." I start to leave, since I know he’s busy, but then he gently pulls me back and surprised me by thanking me for our conversation a few days earlier. He said that he needed to hear that and was grateful for our conversation and then gave me a thumbs up. Afterwards, I thought: Who does that? What world leader thanks someone for a challenging conversation? For me, that small gesture says a great deal about Pope Francis’s humility, openness and freedom, as well his willingness to listen and learn. Weren’t we blessed to have him in our midst?

I feel weird even bringing this up, but here we go. Subscriptions are open on my page. There is no graceful way to say that, so please take this with a kind heart. I know a lot of people are struggling financially, and I don’t want anyone stretching themselves for me. I have a great job. I’m just letting people know it exists because some of you asked. I’m not even saying I’m worth the money. I’ll be honest, I’m not the best person to subscribe to. I’m not an OnlyFans girl, I’m not teaching you how to get monetized, I’m not running a masterclass in anything. The subscriber section is literally just more personal, everyday stuff. It’s boring in a comforting way. You’re not missing anything. If you ever feel like hanging out with me on the quieter side of this app, it’s there. If not, all good. I just wanted to put it out there for anyone who might be interested. Pro tip: if you subscribe to anyone, please do it on a browser. If you do it through the Apple Store or the Google store, they take 30% and put it in their pocket. Those companies are rich enough. I have a real problem with them getting any money or subscribers. I didn’t know that when I first started subscribing to people. PS: if you are a current subscriber or a new subscriber, please go to my homepage and click on the subs tab. I post content there, but it doesn’t automatically show up in your feed. PPS: Please don’t be nasty to me in the comments if you don’t want to subscribe. I’m not a mean person. I can’t think of a humble way to tell people. This wasn’t easy for me to write.
