What I liked

I can’t stop telling my friends about the grateful and pansexual bits. Ariel is so creative in their comedy. It’s refreshing to hear someone say the things we’re all thinking. We all feel lonely and depressed sometimes, and I was right there with Ariel through it all.

What I didn't like

I wish there were more. Longer songs, more poetry, more bits. I’m totally there next time Ariel performs at an open mic or something.

My overall impression

A touching piece. Their candidness and humor draw you in and make you want to believe in the good in the world.
At the beginning of the piece, he says he does it all for his 10 year old self, and I think they do little Ariel proud.
