homophobes are not allowed to use computers because the inventor of the computer was gay
People think this is just a joke but Alan Turing was the inventor of the computer and his sexuality was illegal in his time (which was not even 100 years ago) and he was arrested. They put him on drugs that destroyed his genius brain and committed suicide a year after being covicted. He was gay and a war hero as well. He helped to break enigma which was a German code that they put all their messages through. He shorted WWII by two years and saved so many lives in the process.
Friendly reminder that if not for Alan Turing you wouldn’t be reading this post and we might be ruled by the nazis
The Alan Turing statue on my campus
wait fuck this is soooooo important always reblog
I will never NOT reblog
DUDE???
Y'all should watch “The Imitation Game” with Benadryl Crumblecake. That’s where I learned all this stuff on Alan Turing. Hell of a movie, too. And yes Cucmberbun plays Turing.
the fact that international celebrities are addressing the farmers protest better than the indian government never fails to astound me.
now the government considers that people talking about the farmers protests is a bigger problem than the farmers protest itself
indian “celebrities” are now talking about how “non-indians should not intervene” as if they or the government have been considerate about how the laws affect the farmers.
akshay kumar tweeted “let this not divide us and our nation”
so you think supporting the farmers against late stage capitalism and unfair laws divides us? fuck you.
kangana ranaut literally told rihanna to shut up. bitch you had the audacity. you WISH you were at her level.
rihanna is a humanitarian, and the news channels are now SLUT SHAMING HER and are talking about how much she paid for her fucking make up to portray that only “shameful women/people support farmers” while our “pious kangana ranaut is on the right side”
the thing is, people in india view the government to be this divine authority and we must accept what it does.
and like that is the total opposite of what a democracy is.
people don’t know that governments are supposed to be criticized, that a government is supposed to cater to the people’s needs, that our prime minister isn’t a fucking god and criticizing the government doesn’t make you an “anti-national”
the CAA protests (which was against a blatantly islamophobia law) was ignored and covid 19 caused the protests to stop, and nothing happened, nobody talks about it.
fuckers like kangana ranaut obviously called them terrorists or anti-national. the islamophobia in india is so rampant that apparently being a muslim makes you less of an indian.
the government expected the farmers protests to blow over, like the caa one. but it didn’t. they couldn’t stop the protests due to covid this time.
70 farmers died because of protesting. this was because so many of them were old and couldn’t handle the climate outside. people are labelling FARMERS as terrorists or anti-nationals.
the parallel between the farmers protests and blm is pretty clear. blm protests in america were peaceful and nobody wanted to listen to them?? and once it became violent, racists labelled blm protests as violent and don’t deserve to be listened to?? even if they haven’t been listened to since the very beginning??
its pretty much the same here.
the largest workers protests have been going on here and the government is trying to label the farmers as terrorists or too illiterate to understand the farm laws
and the police are building a wall in the capital to stop the protests. even some of the indo pakistani border isn’t this thick
greta thunberg extended her support and i am so so grateful for that, she also shared a toolkit to help the protests, (which unfortunately is deleted now)
and the indian news channels are trying to convince us that she doesn’t care about the farmer’s protests and she apparently wants to “dismantle the indian democracy”
india isn’t even a democracy anymore. the government now wants to obstruct freedom of speech by warning twitter of penal action if it doesn’t block the accounts which tweet about the protests.
please, this needs more attention. india is descending into fascism. “democracy” is just a blanket covering the chaos underneath.
All these bollywood celebs saying wE sHoUlDnT lEt pRoPaGaNdA dIvIdE uS have a special spot in hell. India against propaganda, it seems. There are people dying, and they’re sitting in their homes that are paid for by bjp. And the supporters are shaming Rihanna for being a victim of abuse and supporting Chris brown because they’d rather praise the perpetrator of a crime than a person trying to speak up about human rights issues. I’m just so angry at our fucking government and the people who think all the bullshit modi is pulling is okay
WHAT THE FUCK?? the media, modi and his fucking supporters are all bullshit. i am so angry.
How fucking delusional does one have to be to believe that RIHANNA. RIHANNA was paid to tweet about the protest. That GRETA THUNBERG is part of an “international conspiracy” to divide India. The audacity of right wingers never ceases to amaze me. They reach new lows every. single. day.
What else can you expect from them whose leader, our beloved Prime Minister- follows trolls who give rape threats to women- on Twitter.
India is on a path to ruin. Intolerance is at an all time high. FIRs are filed against tv shows, comedians are arrested for jokes they didnt make, acts of sedition and UAPA are slapped on student activists and journalists to keep them in jail and stop them from speaking the truth.
The mainstream media is rotting everyone’s brains, vilification of anyone who speaks against the govt reins supreme, and I am terrified. I am terrified of the future, scared of the people around me, and feeling extremely desolate.
Speak up, please. Raise your voice. Support the farmers. Our democracy has been in danger for while now, we need to step up before it’s too late.
Speak up.
non-indians can reblog this. we’d really appreciate it if you’d help spread the word.
If I lived in the Pokemon world… well, I’d probably want to travel around a lot and see all of it, but I know exactly where I’d want my home base to be: Fortree City, in Hoenn. Not only is it a city of tree houses,
but it’s flanked by two of the most beautiful routes in
the entire Pokemon universe: Route 19, with its waterfalls, and Route
20, with its reflecting pools.
(PS you should totally tag this or respond with where in the Pokemon world you’d like to live.)
Absolutely vital information to have if you live where the waters freeze over.
I especially appreciate this guy’s commitment to actually showing the steps himself. That cold-shock response is a bitch and willingly subjecting himself to it couldn’t have been fun.
Is this no longer taught in schools?
I was never taught it, granted it’s not a huge issue in North Carolina
sorry we dont have money for covid relief or health care or any other useful thing we dumped it all into the defense budget which we will then not even use to defend our capitol when its invaded by fascist terrorists
