Inspired by the comedy of Anjelah Johnson, Maria Bamford, and Fortune Feimster, Chinagona shares her experiences as an ethnically ambiguous, LA-native.
A 50-year-old homeschooling a 13-year-old, she's made some questionable choices. Who knew menopause and puberty had so much in common! Add algebra 1 and sex-ed into the mix, and you can imagine the ensuing hi-jinx. Factoring polynomials is way easier to explain than affirmative verbal consent.
Although she's never served in the military, she has been married for over twenty years so she's an expert at survival.
