just cried so hard at this that i actually nearly threw up
I hope you get your favorite food this week and your favorite drink and your favorite 2k dollars
honestly it’s less about marjane satrapi and persepolis and more about how that’s the only narrative the western world views as factual or even worth reading
same thing with authors like khaled hosseini. their works show one perspective, a perspective in a sea of different experiences, one that conveniently paints western imperialist agendas in a positive light and even more conveniently becomes the only narrative ever published for western audiences
you can acknowledge someone’s experiences, but you should always ask yourself why, for example, books like this became required reading in many schools alongside other writings meant to shape your opinion a certain way about a certain region and religion
marjane satrapi was an open zionist and khaled hosseini was welcomed by george w. bush at the white house. Hosseini wrote in his fictional book Kite Runner:
"There are only three real men in this world, Amir," he'd say. He'd count them off on his fingers: America the brash savior, Britain, and Israel. "The rest of them--" he used to wave his hand and make a phht sound "--they're like gossiping old women."
In Baba's view, Israel was an island of "real men" in a sea of Arabs too busy getting fat off their oil to care for their own. "Israel does this, Israel does that," Baba would say in a mock-Arabic accent.
Could us Southeast Asians have a durian dragon?? spiky boi!!

we were doing oral exercise in spanish class where we had to describe a picture. It was a picture of a man and a woman and a child in a living room. my teacher said el es divorciado and the entire class gasped and she was like what's the big news and i think that very aptly summarised the difference between the east and the west
mankind hasn't been given a lot of knowledge on the nature of the soul, but i remember hearing that souls are warm, because when a person dies their body goes cold
the heat actually radiates from your soul
this is where i come in and put on my nerd girl glasses. we may not have been given much knowledge but the knowledge is all around us if only we took the time to actually analyse and study what has been given to us. language.
conceptual metaphor theory!
when avoiding the task doesn’t even free you from the obligation of it because youll still be thinking about it fucking constantly
formative years? aren’t they all?
show me a permanent self and i will show you a facade or a corpse
May Allah remove your burdens and bless you with happiness.
