Are you the kind of person who, when you complete a task and find out it's not on your list, writes it on just to cross it off immediately? If so, you're crazy-and, I like you a lot!

Two women win the Noble prize for chemistry and apparently it's a thing, while since the original of the prize, it has mostly been given to groups of men. They deserved the prize 100%. Let it the fuck go. (I reference here RBG saying equality would be 9 female judges)
