Hi Frens. Maxine here with a fun story about Big Bird. In 2019, my mom and dad went on vacation to Italy (of course Yours Truly wasn’t allowed to go) where they attended the 58th Venice Biennale. I think they just went for the food, but they like telling people about the Biennale and how 'artsy' they are.   Anyway, while walking around and staring at stuff, they stopped by a bright red room that turned out to be Alex Da Corte’s 'Rubber Pencil Devil,' and when they returned home (without any presents for me) they couldn’t stop talking about it. It was kind of obnoxious because I asked them to bring me a keychain. So when my dad told me we were finally going to see Alex Da Corte’s 'As Long As The Sun Lasts,' I thought, ‘Uh oh I have to poop.’ But I was also excited because I love Big Bird. I asked my dad if he loves Big Bird, too, and he said, ‘Of course. And so does Mom.’ And then he said some obnoxious stuff about why he loves the playfully dark yet strange optimism of Da Corte reima...
