Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on February 24, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Judith Butler! May your day be filled with joy, laughter, and perhaps a playful deconstruction of traditional birthday norms. Your groundbreaking insights into feminist and queer theory have challenged us all to rethink identity—though we're still figuring out how to properly cite you at dinner parties.

From "Gender Trouble" to your recent reflections on vulnerability and resistance, you've consistently inspired critical thought (and occasional existential crises) worldwide. Here's hoping this year brings even more brilliant ideas—and fewer misunderstandings from those who think performativity means karaoke night.

Cheers to another revolutionary trip around the sun—you truly redefine aging gracefully!
