In 1945, six women pulled off a computing miracle.

They programmed the world’s first computer—with no manuals, no training.

Then, a SINGLE assumption erased them from tech history for decades.

The story of how ONE photo nearly deleted computing’s female founders: 🧵

@KonstantinKisin What if it wasn’t sex? What if she’d asked for 100 volunteers to stab her? How would you judge those queuing up holding knives?

[Elspie @elspie777]

@Serena_Partrick That’s appalling. Those women smile at the end, not because they are charmed, but because they are so bloody relieved.

@v_j_freeman It’s interesting to consider how we might reimagine our society to have less dependency on electricity. It’s disappointingly predictable that the suggestions are likely to increase the burden on women with little impact on men.

@Rrrrnessa Do you have stats for “most people”? It may be variable by location but I don’t think I know anyone who doesn’t have some kind of hobby or pastime.

The British are famously a nation of dog lovers but has that love gone a little too far? Read on, then try 3 months of unlimited online access for just £3.

@therealmissjo @LabWomenDec But who do I vote for? There are no independents in my constituency. I won’t spoil my ballot.

@LucyHunterB @DalgetySusan @jk_rowling @joannaccherry @AshReganALBA @HotchkissRhona I’ve pre-ordered, an actual paper copy rather than my usual Kindle version, so that my teenager daughter can read it too.

@elizamondegreen Another vote for The Tennant of Wildfell Hall. I’d also recommend Dumas’ The Count of Monte Cristo if you haven’t read it.

Trainspotting parodies usually bore the shit out of me, but I quite like this one.

I refuse to let those on the left who will not recognise the importance of women's sex based rights push me to the right.

@CV_Dalcher @matinfue It’s a brilliant book. I was so engaged I had to stop reading it at bedtime as I would lie awake for hours FURIOUS.

I wrote about how hard it can be for women to feel at home in their bodies - and how cruel it is for others to mock this https://t.co/KvUTSEw4NQ

@jengrunwald @ask_aubry And she certainly didn’t need him to broadcast it to his followers for likes.
