@cspencer1508 I’ve enjoyed the Earl Spencer’s work but just noticed he was a time traveler (see publication date of 1st January 1701). Well done, sir!

Today’s the 1649 anniversary of the execution of Charles I. His killers were mainly tough Parliamentary army officers, & religious (some fanatically so) men who thought the royal execution might end years of bloody civil war. Charles was supremely brave & dignified at his end.

Kid is Edward, pig is Georgie from Peppa Pig. Kid loves stickers, stats, and screen time.

@quantitudepod this kid has been listening to Quantitude with me since the 2020 lockdown. Now his stuffed pig has a Quantitude sticker (I didn’t put it there, FYI). I don’t know if I should be terrified or proud. Probably a little of both… #parenting

Happy Friday! As we look ahead to next month’s Halloween episode, we were hoping that you might share quantitative things that scare you. Post or DM things that terrify you, quanty things that keep you up at night. Spooky. 🎃 🐈‍⬛ Thanks!

@SisterSchmidt Happy birthday, Sr. Jean! I will never forget your kindness when you welcomed me, a first year grad student, to Gentile Arena. You walked right up to me before a game and said “I don’t recognize you. Tell me about yourself”. Thank you for all you do!

Thanks for all of your well wishes for my 103rd birthday! I don’t feel a day over 102.
