Big Bird Announced That He's Suddenly Very Tiny—And The Reactions Are Hilariously Intense

After Big Bird announced on X, formerly Twitter, that he is no longer big and doesn't know why, the internet came in with some classic reactions.

Social media has been buzzing lately with some of the greatest concerns of our time.

Between the Barbie Oscar snubs and the impending "Will Taylor Swift make it to Vegas in time for the Super Bowl" dilemma, we didn't realize the internet had the capacity for another substantial worry, but here we are.


Big Bird is small, and he needs our help.

The formerly large bird took to X, formerly Twitter, last week to deliver the news.

He tweeted:

"Uh oh! Does anyone know how to make me big Big Bird again?"

For the next seven days, Big Bird documented his journey as "just 'Bird."

Day two saw a plea for help.

"Day 2 of being tiny. Does this mean that I am now just 'Bird'?"
"Has anyone figured how to help me?"

By the third day, Big Bird shared his concern that even his pals couldn't see him.

On Day 4, he expressed his gratitude for an insect ride to his nest, but he still needed help.

On the fifth day, Just Bird was thankful to be "seen by all of you."

But he was, however, still tiny.

And people on social media did not take the situation lightly.





*Breaking*

We just received an update, and all is well again.

Big (again) Bird just tweeted:

"I’m big again! What an adventure the last 7 days have been."
"I learned so much by seeing the world from a different perspective. @Elmo and so many other friends checked in on me."
"Thank you to all that checked in to #HelpBigBird. Today and everyday, let’s #HelpEachOther! 💛"

Whew, what a harrowing seven days. Hopefully, the world can rest easy once again.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
