    I don’t agree here. Truth is important. The fact that women haven’t been visible in science is important. We need to explain why they weren’t visible. Creating historical figures is comforting but if their existence is not reliably documented, we should keep explaining why such figures couldn’t emerge, and why their absence is significant.

    Yes to shitposts, no to fabrications (this lady looks like one - but I suppose it was in good faith)









  • I’ve heard Sir Christopher Lee declined to play her part in Peter Jackson’s Barbie biopic. Too violent. “Ah Peter, do you know what it’s like to eat the mandibular nerve of a nazi soldier in order to replenish your forces when you have been dropped behind enemy lines? It’s a messy business, but it’s necessary. I had to do it, but I didn’t do it happily… in the beginning at least. Oh yes Peter. Anyway, do you know why we called Barbie “the plastic girl”? She would place explosives in very clever places. The human body holds so many secrets.”
