“I always remember having this fight with a random dude who claimed that ‘straight white men’ were the only true innovators. His prime example for this was the computer… the computer… THE COMPUTER!!! THE COM-PU-TER!!!

Alan Turing - Gay man and ‘father of computing’ Wren operating Bombe - The code cracking computers of the 2nd world war were entirely run by women Katherine Johnson - African American NASA mathematician and ‘Human computer’ Ada Lovelace - arguably the 1st computer programmer”

Also Margaret Hamilton - NASA computer scientist who put the first man on the moon - an as-yet-unmatched feet of software engineering, here pictured beside the full source of that computer programme. #myhero

Grace Hopper - the woman that coined the term “bug”

for the final day of my redinstead project, i drew characters that to my knowledge, are canonically autistic. from left to right: abed nadir from community, julia from sesame street, spencer reid from criminal minds, (my spidersona, spider-stim!), symmetra from overwatch, river from to the moon, and newt scamander from fantastic beasts!

(symmetra was suggested by @junkratsbobatea and spencer was suggested by @lcmontea!)

plus, a little note from me:

thank you to every single person who liked, reblogged, followed, and just generally supported me through this month. i don’t think i would’ve lasted if it wasn’t for the amount of love i got from people. i can’t even express with words how happy i am that you all enjoyed a project that i wasn’t sure anyone would even care about. just, thank you. <3

I would love this in theory but if the dogzilla got too big it would have a life span of maybe 6 years and my heart can’t handle that kind of pain

Honestly I don’t get why people say they hate drawing dreads/curly hair and other types of poc hair + intricate hair styles because holy hell it’s FUN and informative in many ways. Be better, draw poc hair, have a blast.

So much to celebrate, so little time
