It's out! I enjoyed this project so much and am super excited about the resulting story.

Picking a color scheme is one of my favorite parts of presentation-making. It's just so nice to see how much more coherent the story looks when everything matches.

What happened at the U.S. Capitol today was an insurrection, incited by the President of the United States. romney.senate.gov/romney-con…

Let’s just be clear about something: The reason the Capitol police were slow to respond is because they gave these white people the benefit of the doubt and treated it like a joke. Their reaction isn’t the same because they see black people as a threat that needs to be eliminated

Experts, 3 months ago: If you want to have a semi-normal Thanksgiving follow these simple rules.

I keep thinking about the network physics that could come out of everyone's overlapping covid-19 bubbles. For example, treat each shared member as a contact point between two bubbles and see how close to system-spanning (or town-spanning) the network is.
Covid19 Christmas suggestions: watch as many of these movies as you can (there are SO many). Compare notes on story quality and patterns with friends (how many gazebos did you see?). Or just read the awesome list. npr.org/2020/11/12/933843001…
