Like how we all ignore the genius of Emmy Noether, Lisa Randall, Elizabeth Blackburn, Marie Curie, Karen Uhlenbeck, Lise Meitner and Madame Shien-Chiung Wu? If you want equality as I do, let me say what I would say to any man who made this argument: No. No way. Not even close. https://twitter.com/beccalew/status/1174139720575508481 …

That’s adorable. But no. Genius just is. You just kinda know it when you are getting your ass kicked. I have to deal with them professionally. They are often insufferable. Just like their male counterparts. And, just like their male counterparts, I thank god they are here.

What’s the steelman version of

Eric’s mentions are not a good place to try to actually discuss this. It’s a war zone
