here’s the full comic written by highschoolers and the homies of YPAC, and drawn by me. SROs are trash, I had bad experiences with mine when I did highschool. My mom issa teacher and she spends her own paycheck on supplies for her students cause the school is too busy pitching funds toward school cops who are negligent (at best) or escalate violence (at worst).
This comic was made in collaboration with homies from MPD150check em out.
This gives me the hypothesis that Big Bird is actually a Simurgh, a gargantuan type of mythical bird made up of the unity of thirty birds in enlightenment (At least according to the most famous version of its story spoken of by Borges).
This would explain his great size despite his age and his seemingly-indeterminate species of origin, as well as his golden color relating to Western alchemy’s symbol for enlightenment.
Boy is it fun to overanalyze Sesame Street as a fantasy setting…

I think big bird as a simurgh is practically undeniable when you put it like that
