🎉We're celebrating Lunar New Year on Sesame Street! 🐍
This holiday marks the beginning of a new year on the lunar calendar. Lunar New Year is a special time to unite with family and friends to celebrate the year of the snake! Happy #LunarNewYear!

[The Metropolitan Museum of Art @metmuseum]

Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧 🎉 We're welcoming in the Year of the Snake, a creature characterized as alert, calm, and smart.

This playful Chinese zodiac figure of a snake, dating back to the late Jin and Yuan dynasties, is depicted with exaggerated physical features, like a disproportionately large head and mischievous expression, almost like a cartoon character. The snake smirks and rolls its bulging eyes as it raises its head above its coiled body.

See this work and more in "Celebrating the Year of the Snake," ⁣an exhibition exploring the snake's cultural significance in China through remarkable pieces from the Museum’s collection. On view through February 10, 2026.

🐍 Artist unknown (China, 13th century). Chinese zodiac figure, snake, 13th century. Grey earthenware with pigment.

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults.

I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

“I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented”

@SUEtheTrex That's Clarice. She's kind of sick of hearing fava bean jokes, but otherwise she's pretty chill.

If a stranger you've met online promises you money, love, or a brighter future - it might be too good to be true. Trust your instincts, stop engaging with the person, and tell someone about the situation.

This is what the fossils do after the museum closes.

Casually using the word “stalking” in everyday conversations minimizes the reality of how dangerous and traumatic the crime really is, and downplaying the seriousness of stalking can make it harder for victims and survivors to seek and receive support. #KnowItNameItStopIt
