dreaming of multichromatic harmony

Only a few clicks away from resubmitting last year's MLK header as this year's, I hesitated before committing this rerun reddit logo faux pas.

Instead, it seemed like a good alternative to illustrate a utopian world where aliens of all colors could hold hands and wear reddit letters on their stomachs.

But our alien hero should have known better. It was all a dream.
And like all dreams -- once the bubble pops -- they end.
With open eyes it's clear that we still haven't fulfilled Dr. King's dream (which, it should be noted, had nothing to do with multicolored florescent extra terrestrials). Judging from the time-traveling experiences of our mascot, it's not something that will ever be fulfilled. Sure, wholly achieving it isn't realistic, but it's something worth striving for, right?
A washcloth probably isn't actually going to do much, but it's a start. Although I suspect that just being a decent person probably goes a long way.

Wow, that's deep... in a hallucinogenic kind of way...

It's why I always start my day with a wee bit o' LSD in my coffee. It helps with the logo doodles.
