Grabbed on a whim and they are both... not good. Too sticky sweet (think melted cherry chapstick) and too spiced (in a bad way), respectively.

HOWEVER!

Mix them and you've got a decent beer. Huh.

There's almost nothing easier than getting nominating signatures. I signed **many** such papers at a bar I used to frequent, and I didn't give two rips who the candidate was.

What a lazy asshole.
Wanna know how bad the Arizona legislator's petition forgeries were? Here's the examples from the Austin Smith indictment.

Picked up Crypt Custodian on a whim (2D action adventure Metroidvania) and it was pretty charming. Only took a few nights to 100%, so it wasn't very challenging, but it was fun. I recommend!

JJ McCarthy looks so bad. He throws with zero anticipation, and his footwork is laugh out loud bad.

Can't believe the Vikings thought this guy was the future. Kevin O'Connell is a brilliant coach, but there's no saving this guy.

Does anyone have an example of examining contrasts using emmeans for multinomial regressions with an interaction term?

Super Kitties + Paw Patrol led to some arts and crafts for the smaller cat.

Another edition of the greatest series ever made, Iron Pineapple's "Steam Dumpster Diving" for Souls-likes.

Goodbye, 2 hours.

Any #rstats people on here have experience with hierarchal generalized additive models (HGAM) in ecology?

I’m in need of some help in possibly using one with some data!

In their 3 losses, GB has given up 13, 16, and 10 points.

Leo is an American citizen.

If being American means anything, it’s that he should be free to work without worrying the government will raid the property without a warrant & arrest him for doing nothing wrong.

Hey #rstats,

Are there any good tricks for deciding on sensible dimensions for a plot when saving it?

Or does everyone just tweak the dimensions in ggsave() until it looks right?

I am once again reminding you that jury trials are good.

Plea-driven mass adjudication is bad.

If you get a jury summons, *don't whine about serving*.
