Thunder Road: Vendetta being a big hit on its family games night debut. Chaotic, thematic, and not too heavy. Pretty much perfect.
Somebody make THIS Christmas movie, please.
Since lots of people are announcing departures, let me announce that I'm staying, partly because I curate my lists carefully, and mostly because there isn't the recreational geometry community anywhere else. But I'm rfbooth at the trendy new place and r.f.booth at Zuck's twitter.

Right-leaning voters are always like, "That's our guy! No matter what! Wa--hoo! Let's vote!"
And the left are like, "If she wants MY vote, she'll have to earn it, in fact, if the entire political system doesn't meet my expectations, I won't be voting at all."
Goddamit.

Went to the bus stop. First two due buses don't show. Third one is so full it can't let anybody on.
Take a cab to the station.
The train I want arrives, but three others in this time slot are cancelled without replacement.
And this is why we drive.
Turns out the league cancelled for nothing, but that's more than ok. The people of Preston, and the rest of the country, made me feel proud of this place again.
Peace won in Preston this evening.

A 🧵about the rioters, the instigators (two fairly distinct groups of people), and the processes leading to the current unrest. 1/21
Many people have some irrational beliefs. Mine is "most people are fundamentally decent".
I'm sure these numbers would be better without cynical forces whipping up hate, but even so, the fact that 20% of us are pretty awful is dispiriting.

This equally applies to the UK as well. I still honestly believe that those of us who read Charlie Brown books as children inherited Charles Schulz 's moral compass.

⚠️ SAFETY ALERT
It has been brought to our attention that dangerous stickers have been discovered at a railway station that, once removed, have razor blades stuck to them.
Please take extreme care and do not attempt to remove them.

This idea that calling ppl far right is “meaningless” is regularly shared by the far right & those trying to normalise far right activities & ideology. The genuinely concerned parents were at the vigil, not lobbing bricks at a mosque.
