      One of the best PSA campaigns to ever exist, imho.

    Can’t believe they used a European Robin instead of a bird native to the US. I demand better bird representation in our public safety announcements

      I’m glad they used a bird that bothers you, that way you’d more readily understand that birds aren’t real.

      No idea but it’s brilliant. I’m proud of a government agency for once

        Honestly, the agencies always go hard AF. Our National Park Services has a fire ass social media and does some wild things. USPS sells some fire ass drip even.
