violetimpudence: theartofnotwriting: shychemist: One of my favourite twitter trending topics I’ve seen in a while: #GirlsWithToys.This came as a response to an Astronomer’s remarks that Scientists are ‘boys with toys’.Glad to see such a strong response from the women of STEM. :) Hell yes, women of STEM! Oh good, more of these! Keep ‘em coming. I know this is showcasing women with high-tech sciencing equipment and stuff, but my boss totally bought me a Lego Mindstorm and tried to tempt me with Arduinos on the basis that I could use them to build behavioral apparatuses for the lab. Apparatuses like tiny mouse treadmills or automatic mealworm dispensers. My actual high-tech toys are the sound chambers capable of accurately recording sounds in the ultrasonic that I mostly built last year, but I’m not so much “delighting in their use” as caressing them like Gollum with a much, much more delicate Precious and crooning over their continued function.don’t you touch my sound chambers okayseriously you can’t have them they’re mine -- source link
