Klinger and Charle’s relationship is one my favorites because it’s just so weird. Like, there are an awful lot of subplots centered around the two of them together. Its like this weird symbiotic relationship they got going on. They can’t stand each other, but would also jump in front of a bullet for the other. Very much “you scratch my back I’ll scratch yours” despite then being such vastly different people. But in the mess of it all, I feel like they end up becoming quite good friends.

Idk I’m just rambling, but I find their intereactions interesting and wonderful. Please feel free to add your own commentary about the Charles and Klinger dynamic.

@topshelf2112-blog it's ice cream for dessert after Sunday dinner and Charles is demanding to know where we are. He's probably declaring us AWOL for slumber party weekend. Bet we get kp next week lol.

David ogden stiers just won his 154th emmy for supporting actor in a comedy series. Trust me

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog and we agree!!

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog nothing but admiration from Charles as Max lands a day late for slumber party weekend. Let the fun begin!!

[topshelf2112-blog]

@kimby1967 it’s a long weekend and Max tells everyone he’s done laboring because he has other things to do do!

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog Unbeknownst to Max, Winchester has his tux ready and is planning a magical proposal!!

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog it's slumber party time on this Labor day weekend and Klinger, with his attention to detail, is wearing white while it's fashionably acceptable. And, I think sending Charles Emerson Winchester a not so subtle hint!!

[topshelf2112-blog]

@kimby1967 this doctor is going off duty… and clearly pities those who will not be enjoying slumber party weekend!

[kimby1967]

Max is eager and excited for the good doctor's return so they can play "doctor" 🤫

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog see told you Max was excited for the doctor aka Charles to make it to slumber party weekend!!

“I always remember having this fight with a random dude who claimed that ‘straight white men’ were the only true innovators. His prime example for this was the computer… the computer… THE COMPUTER!!! THE COM-PU-TER!!!

Alan Turing - Gay man and ‘father of computing’ Wren operating Bombe - The code cracking computers of the 2nd world war were entirely run by women Katherine Johnson - African American NASA mathematician and ‘Human computer’ Ada Lovelace - arguably the 1st computer programmer”

- Sacha Coward

Also Margaret Hamilton - NASA computer scientist who put the first man on the moon - an as-yet-unmatched feet of software engineering, here pictured beside the full source of that computer programme. #myhero

Grace Hopper - the woman that coined the term “bug”  

- @robinlayfield

[villanellethepoetic-deactivated]

Grace Hopper did more than coin the term “bug”. She invented the first program linker in the early 1950s, for the UNIVAC I. A program linker translates instructions from one language to another (for example, numerical codes that represent instructions translated to machine code that computers can read), which is the very foundation of how computer’s operate independently. she also pulled a steve rogers and tried to enlist in the military a bunch of times and was denied. then, an exception was made for her when she joined the navy reserves, and she ended up serving for over 40 years (half of which was active duty). she retired from the navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper. she was born in NYC in 1906. Grace Hopper was a fucking badass.

also computing was typically a job for women (many of whom were black women that made incredible contributions) back in the day, so it’s absolutely fucking wild that straight white men think they are the foundation of computer innovation. men PUSHED women out and took the credit.

system never did.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Adding Wendy Carlos to the list! Trans icon and pioneer of synthesized music!!

Also, just about every computerized device outside of desktops is running ARM chips now. Your phone, your keyboard, your car, your watch. Basically everything.

And ARM was primarily designed by Sophie Wilson, a trans woman.

Please don’t forget Hedy Lamarr. Screwed over by the US government. She helped develop spread spectrum communication, which in part led to the development of WiFi and Bluetooth tech.

[ecrivainsolitaire]

LED, LCD and CRT colour monitors are built upon the design of Guillermo González Camarena, Mexican inventor of the colour television. Without him, computers would still be black and white. Without colour screens, video games wouldn’t have become as popular as they are now, and movies with digital effects would be almost impossible, meaning computers as a whole wouldn’t have grown to be as powerful as they currently are, because a lot of money in modern computer research comes from the film and video game industries.

Oh hey! Haven’t seen this in forever! Didn’t reblog it when it came across me before, not gonna skip it this time, I need some good vibes.

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog not much happening at this slumber party weekend. Charles has been ill but not to worry, Max has been very attentive. Hopefully, he will have the major nursed back to health by Friday.

[kimby1967]

@topshelf2112-blog the major would never reveal our intimate details. He is a true gentleman

[topshelf2112-blog]

@kimby1967 I wanted to share details of slumber party weekend, but this is the look I received. Between us, much fun was had by all!
