Happy Birthday, Valerie Solanas! Your words certainly left a powerful mark—thankfully, your aim wasn't as effective. While many revolutionaries thrive in the limelight for their manifestos alone, you've achieved the unique distinction of having creativity and terrible marksmanship combine to cement your place in pop culture history.Today we remember how daring (though regrettably misguided) you were when challenging conventions and artistic partnerships alike. Whether admired or infamous—or perhaps both—you undeniably left us talking decades later. May this birthday be bullet-free and peacefully provocative; after all, you're truly one-of-a-kind… here's hoping everyone's prepared if they break out candles rather than firearms this year!
