[strip depicting two versions of Uhura from Star Trek, one from the time of TOS, and the other from the future of TOS in which she’s a commander, in conversation:
Lt. Uhura: You’re… me, aren’t you?
Cmdr. Uhura: Apparently so.
Lt. Uhura: Then I’m still in the service?
Cmdr. Uhura: Yes, dear. You’re—I’m—a commander now.
Lt. Uhura: I’m not married? No children? No legacy to leave?
Cmdr. Uhura: Not the one we’d once hoped to leave. But we’ve helped to open the universe to all mankind— —and that’s more than enough legacy for any woman.]
I’m just going to sit here and do some ugly sobbing right now.

It is the blight (wo)man was born for. Hey, I'm Emma, and I think I look pretty good in a lab coat.

I enjoy thinking about very large things, thinking about very small things, riding a bicycle, smashing the patriarchy, making music, eating fresh fruit, waking up early, looking at the sky...

When I grow up I want to be a cross between Audre Lorde and Richard Feynman.

Ask me anything
