Anonymous should check the contributions of Lynn Conway to the modern computer

And here it is conveniently summarized in wiki form.

And a shorter summary not on wiki.

Another history.

Anon may also want to read up on Sophie Wilson, who helped pioneer home computers.

But mostly just read up on Lynn Conway. You wouldn’t have tumblr to anonymously mock transgender people with without her. You’d have to do it in person, like your grandfather did. And then you’d run the risk of getting a punch in the nose. Like your grandfather did.

Martine Aliana Rothblatt is another person to bring up given her role in helping to create the unified satellite network that runs much of our society today.

I’m just going to keep reblogging this post when new amazing and awesome trans people get added. ok? ok.
