May the 4th is Mother’s Day this year so i expect every mom to call up her kids with a Vader filter over her voice and go “I AM YOUR MOTHER”

“but Aster that’s a dad joke”

Screenshot of quotation: I suspect that the distinction between a maternal and a paternal instinct is scarcely worth making; the parental instinct, the wish to protect, to further, is not a sex-linked characteristic... - Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness. With colored lines and letters I have crossed out and replaced Maternal with Mom Joke, Paternal Instinct with Dad Joke, To Protect To Further with To Have A Ridiculous Sense of Humor, and the author credit with Me.ALT

update: I just looked at the calendar again and noticed Mother’s Day is actually the eleventh. Mothers have another week to come up with a fitting joke. This has been a drill to test the improv skills of the nation’s parents. Thank you.
