pnw bigfoot sightings

So excited! I submitted a quarto site for the closeread competition. It's a Quarto website that uses closeread (scrollytelling) and parallax effects to tell a story about bigfoot sightings data. note - it doesn't work well on mobile:(

renv is garbage, im sorry devs:(
it advertises that everything will default to PPM automatically, but it never does. and you cannot change the config to do so. and there are always bugs, especially when projects that have collaborators using various systems. this is such a headache #rstats

highly recommend #quartodoc for creating python docs. It treats your doctrings like they are quarto snippets, so you can do quarto things in docstring, like execute code, make cross refs, make diagrams, etc.+you can fully customize a website around it #quarto

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

These kind of votes are born out of trans representation in government.
Rep. Howell & I have built solid relationships with Republicans and those relationships change hearts, minds, and (eventually) votes.
It is painful, grueling work. But it makes a difference.

Two BIG wins in Motnana!
We killed two anti-trans bills today (a drag ban & a bill requiring CPS to remove trans kids from parents).
I'm so grateful for Montana Democrats, who have stood unwavering in their support of trans rights. And grateful to all the Republicans who said enough is enough.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

I didn't think "scrolly-telling is underused"; this submission moved my opinion in that direction.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.
