Elmo testified before congress in support of funding for music education programs. (Source)
He also did this while looking incredibly adorable.
Meanwhile a man probably sat crammed under that desk so a puppet could testify I’m laughing too hard
I’m sorry but you seem to be mistaking Elmo for a puppet. Elmo is not a puppet. He is a muppet. A puppet is a man made object and a muppet is a living being. There is nobody under the desk because Elmo is real.
Remember a few years ago how some autistic kid (like 14 years old) was like “Link is mute like me!” and NTs were obsessed with ‘disproving’ their headcanon and using technical definitions of outdated terms and saying that he couldn’t have mutism and that the headcanons were just “SJW bullshit”
and now in the latest Zelda, we get it confirmed that Link does indeed have selective mutism due to trauma and anxiety
Yesterday at work these two 12yo boys came through my line and i’m instantly like. oh Boy. Because solo children at a grocery store are always forces of chaos, good or bad
But thankfully these ones were totally pleasant, and when i asked if they wanted a receipt one of them pulled out a random fuckin receipt from his bag and asked “Do YOU???” and y’all, i lost my shit… What a power move. When will i ever be this funny
