- On Ada Lovelace
Ada Lovelace was Lord Byron’s daughter. She was not “friends” with Mary Shelley. Pretty sure Lady Shelley was dead by the time Ada was born.

Also known as calling a reactionary f”¢k a reactionary f”¢k 😂 where’ver one may find them Which unfortunately online is too many everywhere, but they are full time normalisers so it’s hard to know sometimes.

New Zealanda year ago - Fantastic podcast
I've been listening to Eiynah for years and have enjoyed her takes on the IDW and right wing nutjobs the entire time. I definitely think people should go support her on patreon so that she can keep this going. Also, don't pay attention to the one star reviews.They're almost entirely dishonest Sam Harris fans or bootlickers
