minus-squareAngrilyEatingMuffins@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up26·1 year agoBurning that picture of the pope was legendary, even without her incredible music she’d be remembered as an icon and iconoclast. Bless you.
minus-squarewryan@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up18·1 year agoShe didn’t burn it, she ripped it into pieces. She will definitely be remembered as an iconoclast but obviously hasn’t held up to be that impactful, as people apparently don’t even remember what she did.
