In addition to essentially inventing the computer, Alan Turing also broke the German Enigma Code during World War II which paved the way for the D-Day invasion. The man was a hyper-genius. I’ve read descriptions of his work by mathematical physicist Sir Roger Penrose. He’s been a hero of mine ever since.
The level of thought required to come up with the stuff he came up with is totally beyond my comprehension. I actually did not even know about his orientation until much later. He was prosecuted and ordered to undergo chemical castration. Soon thereafter, he committed suicide by eating a cyanide-laced apple.
The government forced him to take estrogen as a punishment (or “cure”?). He began to develop breasts and other side effects.
He committed suicide by biting into a cyanide laced apple. This is supposedly the inspiration for the name/logo of Apple computers.

the apple was a rainbow



Mind blown!
I hadn’t heard the bit about the apple, but Alan Turing was boss!

My Favourite Things
Tumblr Edition
(This version written and performed by Codot)
Watching the clever consulting Detective,
Timelords and Doctors, and the Borg Collective,
Princes of Asgard and Angels with wings,
These are a few of my favourite things.Winchester Boys in their old ‘67,
Eccleston, Tennant, and Smith make 11,
Seeing White Walkers and Clashes with Kings,
These are a few of my favourite things.Wizards who cast spells with deadly precision,
Inspectors who say it’s “not my division”,
GIF-ing The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings,
These are a few of my favourite things.When Arthur dies,
“Let me through, please!”,
When the Angels Weep,
I try to remember my favourite things,
and then cry myself to sleep!Billionaire geniuses bringing the party,
Desperately trying to thwart Moriarty,
It’s never over until the Ood sings,
These are a few of my favourite things.Fluttershy, Applejack, and all the Ponies,
NUTCRACKER! Sam takes one in the Cojones,
Aang, Zuko, Bolin and Korra’s Bendings,
These are a few of my favourite things.What time is it, why it’s time for Adventure,
Feeling the love between Xavier and Lehnsherr,
In fact, let’s go mad with all our shippings,
These are a few of my favourite things!When I get hit,
Right in the feels,
When it makes me sad.
I simply remember my favourite things,
and then I don’t feel so bad!OMG WHAT THIS IS AMAZING
CODOT, YOU’RE ON MY DASH AGAIN!
‘Round and ‘round I go! WOOOO!!
