Watched that Louis Theroux manosphere documentary where that dude was like "what did women ever do to build the modern world?"

Well, for a start: the broad concept of computer programming, the first compiler, radio frequency hopping, numerous programming languages, the pertussis vaccine, chemotherapy, gas-powered central heating, and the use of the electric guitar for rock'n'roll.

God knows how to weigh those achievements up against hosting podcasts and wearing ill-fitting suits.

@tommorris ty that TIL about Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the Godmother of Rock n' Roll
@burt_cokain it's an amazing story, esp when you consider how much her influence has come down through not just rock but soul, funk, R&B, hip-hop, electronic music, etc.
