Asian Comedians to Watch When The World Is Too Much

Asian Comedians to Watch When The World Is Too Much



Sabine Gaind

Sabine has two requirements for good comedy: making her forget that the world sucks or making her see that, yeah, the world does suck, but it’s also okay to be vulnerable and to laugh sometimes.

It’s the Buddha quote, the home education kits, and the attempt to make an already-global cuisine more palatable for western people for us… Another (literal) Karen exploiting Asian culture for her own monetary gain? Giving us very Mahjong Line vibes ? An attempt for redemption was made— see slide 4— but how do you feel about breakfastcure (who, mind you, is keeping themselves from being tagged)? ?

It is a transformative time for us at Overachiever as we are releasing our first print issue, Autumn: Metamorphosis ✨? In this issue we want to explore the aspects of transformation; the beautiful, the painstaking, the awkward, the rewarding, the unspoken aspects of transformation. We want to explore personal growth during a time when things are ending. What does change feel, sound, hear, smell, taste like? Do you resist change? Do you seek change? Tell your story. Submissions will be open between July 20th and August 20th. Our prints will be focused on visual pieces and short-form written pieces.

All Rights Reserved

Overachiever Magazine was started by Rehana Paul in October of 2018 to give a platform to all Asian women, non-binary people, and other gender minorities.

Our name is poking fun at the stereotype that all Asians are overachievers, especially Asian women, non-binary people, and other gender minorities. It’s also in recognition of all of us who have had no choice but to be overachievers: managing societal expectations, family obligations, and educational opportunities, all while fighting the patriarchy.

We have grown since then, putting out bimonthly issues (we are contributor powered: apply to write for our next one!), and weekly reviews of culture, and news that is important to us.

You can find announcements, more news, and get to know our staff on social media: give us a follow, and learn how you can get involved today!

We do not claim to speak for all Asian women, non-binary people, and other gender minorities. We are just here to give them a place to speak for themselves.

We hope you’ll join us.
