Arthur is 24 years old at this point and clearly wouldn't be working down at the docks since child labor is illegal, sometimes people on these forums can't comprehend basic lore.

R.L. Stine: Oct 19, 2007; welcome to dead gay house

when my kid was like 4-5 she used to play this arthur game on pbs kids . com where it was trying to teach you how to be nice and also culturally aware by letting you choose arthur's messages to his online penpal from turkey. after playing properly she got bored and decided to play it over again but chose the most insensitive things to say to this cartoon turkish boy and i got to listen to arthur be extremely rude for like half an hour until she got bored again. if arthur is racist enough the penpal will get super pissed and the game ends.

it must have worked though because she isn't racist as far as i'm aware. more than i can say about arthur.

Do you have any idea what kind of giant corporate empire sesame street is? Sesame workshop(a nominal non-profit) has annual revenue of 170 million a year. And that number is from a year where they weren't airing new episodes.

Binky got an adopted Chinese sister, that one gang Binky rolled with led by the one rabbit girl addressed their childhood trauma and are now social activists(protesting for !!!!!fair wages!!!!!), Ratburn has a fuckin' history, Buster a conspiracy nut, took over a community garden, and met a gay couple(that was a whole thing when it happened), Sue Ellen hallucinated Neil Gaiman as a falafel, they introduced a new family that's Cajun and ARE TROOPS .

I wish I didn't remember all the things about this show that I remember, but on the other hand, I found it exponentially more hilarious when the internet posted the "Arthur murders a hobo for his clothes" meme a while back.

the one i remember is there is like fire in a trash can in the teachers lounge and binky gets ptsd from seeing the fire fighter put it out or stomp it out.
