     @CarveHerName it would be another twenty-four years before she could vote.

     Ahem. We post most days* about women who made or make history. We can’t promise all of the women as as cool as this one, but if you want a daily drop of historical women in your feed, we love new followers. ;)

     * there are a few days where we have a gap in the data, and sometimes we’ll have a gap in posting what we do have because Mags has IRL deadlines to meet.
