69cupso...
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.

and old Apple computers
the apple was a rainbow
Reblogging again because more people need to know about Turing dammit.
Real life creepypasta.
damn assholes in the past i wish those people who banned homosexuality weren’t alive at all
That is exactly where the rainbow apple came from and one of the reasons Apple is awesome.
oh holy shit that is fucking awesome
So sad.
Turing’s story is true up top in the image.
The Apple logo has nothing to do with Turing though. When asked about any connection Jobs’s answer was, “God, we wish it were.” (Source)
Reblogging because Turing is a hero of mine and always an autoreblog, despite the inaccuracies that popped up later in the comments.

Mandy Patinkin considers Inigo...
Mandy Patinkin considers Inigo to be his favorite role of all time, and one can hardly blame him; in the midst of such a hilarious yarn, Inigo’s fight to avenge his father is perhaps the most moving subplot of the film. But there’s another layer to this tale: it turns out that not long before taking the part, Patinkin’s own father had died of cancer. He said that while filming the final duel between Inigo and Count Rugen, he imaged it as a fight between himself and that cancer. That whole habit of art imitating life allowed Patinkin the opportunity to truly mourn his father. So if watching that scene doesn’t already make you tear up, it probably will next time. If it already had you crying, you’ll be weeping into buckets from now on.
Oh Inigo, you just stabbed me right in the heart! **sobs**
