Happy Earth Day! Walt Kelly’s iconic strip celebrating Earth Day appeared on April 22, 1971. His message has only become more relevant, and urgent, in the years that followed.
I woke up like this (guileless)
I enjoy a few pop history podcasts, and whenever they cover something I'm familiar with I'm like okay so that's the limitation of a short research window, huh, yikes
