Goodnight, and rest in peace, Marjane Satrapi. Thank you for your work and your voice. May we hear you.

no little punk girl don't walk into the lightning storm! your outfit is so conductive! little punk girl nooooooo

the lighting strikes her eyebrow piercing and travels down the spikes on her jacket to the chains on her pants down the hooks of her boots till it's grounded in the 2 inches of rubber at the bottom of her stompers and she blinks comically, pulls out a mirror, admires her newly fried hair, and walks away happily

if you are a parent, or may become one, or you are otherwise likely to arrive in the situation of caring for a child while they eat, promise me this: if a child doesn't like a certain food or food group, you will ask them WHY. and specifically, you will pay attention to either confirming or ruling out "it makes my mouth itch" or "it makes my stomach hurt," both of which are medically important info that children may not provide unprompted. which i know because this PSA has been brought to you by "i spent my entire childhood and much of my early teens eating peas and lentils while wondering why everyone else liked the Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation so much, like were they a bunch of legume masochists or something, before i finally realized that Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation was in fact a sinister demon appearing only to me, and her true demonic name was: Legume Allergy"

Do not let your child suffer from spicy bananas!

[DAZED FROM BLOOD LOSS] hey not to kill the vibe completely but i think i am in love with you

I think the harm of denying people the right to control their own bodies is so, so much worse than the risk of people regretting the decisions they make. Regretting something you decided to do is a much healthier pain than the pain of regretting that you didn't get to have a choice.

it’s rotten work. to me if it’s me.
