jokes aside by: shelby latterman

hi! i am shelby.

picture this: i’m twenty-six. i live in New York City. i am addicted to dyeing my hair platinum blonde. i work as a brand manager. after work i do stand-up. i write a bit of freelance. you can find some of my words in V Magazine.

jokes aside, this is a funny but serious place.

i spend almost every day thinking about jokes. each month, i come to my substack to write about something on my mind, funny or not. anxiety, academia, queerness, joy, chunky loafers. usually i try to offer a bit of advice. mostly i want you to feel like you aren’t alone.

and you aren’t.

you have me.

and i’m thrilled to have you.

xoxo,

Shelby
