TIL slipstick is US-specific slang for a slide rule and I need you all to know I learned this for a canon that was written in 2010 and is set *in 2025*, it's set in an alternate 2025 that has way better holographic displays than we do no less. THE MOVIE HAS A FUCKING CANONICAL SLIPSTICK IN IT, OKAY.

And another Heinlein book (or books, I forget) had a spaceship navigator named Andrew "Slipstick" Libby, so named because he was incredibly fast at calculating the necessary coordinates on his slide rule!

Early Heinlein had a character “Slipstick” Libby who was amazing because he could do logarithms in his head. Along came computers & Libby was now quaint as a buggy whip.

Oathbreakers is the next book in my queue, but now I’m concerned that it doesn’t have any slipstick.

Heinlein had a character whose nickname was “Slipstick” suggesting that they were good with a sliderule. I haven’t seen anyone use a sliderule in the last 50+ years.

RAH had more than one trans character. Friday was a brain transplant; "Slipstick" Libby was a (dead) male genius who was brought back and chose to be a woman. The fascinating thing about Libby was that it was treated as a minor plot point, normal health care offered to everyone in that sitch.

As a kid in the late 70s/early 80s it took me a while to understand why RAH named a character “Slipstick”
