The world right now is quite a mess. In fact, in some cases, it might seem that everything is falling apart around us. And apparently, we are not the only ones who feel this way.On January 29th, Elmo came to X (at this point, all of us probably know it was Twitter, so no need to say it, right?) to ask people how they were doing. And the answers to this simple tweet were a dumpster fire of emotions.More info:XImage credits:Sesame StreetImage credits:elmoThis post may includeaffiliate links.

On the show, Elmo hosts the last full five-minute segment (which used to be 15 minutes up until 2017) called “Elmo’s World.” This segment is aimed at toddlers.
Even though right now Elmo seems like an inseparable part of “Sesame Street,” he wasn’t introduced on the show until 1980. Back then, he was a supporting character. He became a permanent member only 5 years later, in 1985.Interestingly, the Elmo character has very deeplore. For example, it is known that his birthday is February 3rd. And people know his extensive family tree. His parents’ names are Louie and Mae, while his sister is Daisy. And that’s just the beginning. There’s a wholelistof Elmo’s cousins, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and so on.

Elmo also has social media:Instagramand, of course,X. So trying to keep active on his X account, the Muppet asked a simple question: “Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?” No one could have guessed the kind of wave of emotions it would release upon the internet.
Also, for some people,January bluescan have something to do with feeling this way. January is said to be thesaddestmonth of the year.
At the same time, maybe it’s not the month’s but the world state’s fault. After all, the Doomsday clock, which represents the probability of a human-made global catastrophe, is only90 secondsto midnight (which represents said catastrophe).
Oof. This quickly took a dark turn. Just like the responses to Elmo’s questions. Maybe we shouldtry to turnthis Doomsday clock a little bit further from midnight? Or just work on our mental health and wait for thislong Januaryto be over.
