I'm heartbroken by the racist shooting in Buffalo this past weekend. My heart goes out to everyone affected by the shooting. The friends and families of the victims and also the communities who feel less safe than they did before. 1/8

WOW. There is a POSITIVE correlation between confirmed COVID-19 cases and the total number of shark attacks (provoked and unprovoked!) since 1900. Don't ask me about the R^2 though because I consider the NHST to be tyrannical.
