canonically big bird would have had to die because children all over the world would have literally seen that happen.

but what about the children in the Concord high halls on /1/28/86 watching Mrs McAuliffe explode into bits and die on the challenger before she ever got to space "but at least it wasn't big bird"-

You ever flip through TikTok concerned about the world, then this vet with PTSD shows up and you think “it’s all ok”? I have no idea why……

it was dark enough. 😂 Seeing the TV roll in to the room was less exciting after that.

I knew the actor. I am so glad he was too tall because he was a great man. Big bird is one thing, but he was more important.

I was in 4th grade when the challenger exploded. My art teacher applied to be the teacher that went. I was in her class when we watched it explode.

so there’s also a timeline where big bird is on board and the launch goes perfectly. the purest alabaster timeline

It was traumatic enough. I would've needed much more therapy if my favorite character had been on board. That's DEFINITELY the darkest timeline!

I wonder, in that timeline, is just American big bird dead? So the non-US big birds all have to grieve the loss? Do they replace him? QUESTIONS
