What a weekend. I don't think there were any straight people (and not many cis people either) at that party, and there were like 30 people there. Plus cute blue-haired girl and my primary finally met. That could have gone better, but I suppose it could've gone worse too.
@polymerwitch That sounds like so much fun to play!
@polymerwitch Woo, D&D! May all your rolls be nat20s. What kind of character are you playing?
when you have an office of power whose only barrier to entry is rhetoric, the only kind of people you will get to fulfill that role is the kind of people who a) want power and b) are very good at rhetoric
This is Wendy Carlos, who is a composer and one of the pioneers of electronic music.
She was involved in the development of the Moog Synthesizer and helped to establish the Synthesizer as a proper musical instrument in the public eye.
Her most wildly known works are her soundtracks for the Stanley Kubrick's films "A Clockwork Orange" and "The Shining".
As you can tell from the pictures she's not only a huge nerd but also very fond of cats. #transhistory
