My fiRst #tidytuesday! I had a gReat time playing with the data and getting a betteR feel foR using R when seeing a dataset foR the fiRst time. Thank you to the #TidyTeam, and thank you to @andrew.heiss.phd!! I look foRward to continuing to impRove my skills in R! #tidytuesday | #rstats

The image is a graph showing the difference between fatal accident occurrence on 4/20 and on other days. The title is "Does the Marijuana High Holiday Result in High Fatalities?", and the subtitle is "Comparing Fatal Accidents on 4/20 to the Rest of the Year." 4/20s are displayed in a dark green, and everything else is in a dark purple. The x-axis is date, and the y-axis is fatal accident count. There are also smooth lines going through the data, divided by 4/20 yes or no. The source is listed as "tidytuesdayR."

This is the coding that I did to create the visualization. I filtered the daily_accidents_420 to get rid of the N/A observations. Then, I set all my parameters. I used geom_point with an alpha of 0.3, geom_smooth (one for the 4/20 dates and one for everything else), and I applied colors I thought made sense (dark olive green for 4/20 and dark orchid for everything else). I then labeled everything and applied the classic theme.

Watching live as bureaucracy as we know it disintegrates. What is our "common core of common sense" if we have no bureaucracy to support it?
