I don’t know who you are but I was scrolling my dash, looking at that regooping post and saw your profile picture and it made me cry. It’s the same one my moms had on her Facebook for almost 2 years, and I haven’t seen my mom in months and she’s been having serious health problems again. I know it’s small, but seeing that picture brought me a wave of comfort I needed badly, even if only for a moment. Thank you and I hope you have a lovely day.

thanks so much for writing and for sharing your feelings. I hope your mom's health has improved
this is the full image, from the comic Tank Girl:
"I can't let things be this way. We can be wonderful. We can be magnificent. We can turn this shit around."
it's my favorite frame from the series, and my fave quote:
angry punk but optimistic and hopeful, set in a dystopian wasteland that's also beautiful. she's pissed off at the people who killed the world, but also believes we can become better people and change the world for the better
and it's not idle hope: she's wearing a flak vest full of fighting gear and pulling on her boots to go kick some fascist ass
@bluestarlett I suspect your mom uses the profile pic because she takes inspiration from Tank Girl's courage and determination during her challenges - I sure as heck do
(PS: your note has brightened my day every time I've seen it in my inbox. now that I'm at a computer, figured it was time to finally reply!)
