Kearney, the show's first nonbinary cast member, said they're "so incredibly grateful for this period in my life."“Yall that's a wrap on my time on SNL!" Kearney wrote. "Reflecting on the amazing 2 seasons I got on this show, it was such a dream come true. So incredibly grateful for this period in my life."
"So much love to all my big hearted buddies behind the scenes who make the magic happen every week," they added. "So many bald caps, so little time. It was a true honor to work with such a talented group of writers and DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE CAST.
As they were lifted out of the studio, Kearney gave an address to trans kids that was equally impassioned and hilarious. "What's happening, kids, is wrong, and you don't need to be scared," they said. "Our job is to protect you, and your job is to focus on being a kid. It's kinda like me flying in thesky: There's a bunch of dudes asking you about your crotch and controlling when and where you're allowed to pee.
