Terrible news -- was hoping to see them at Coachella One More Time ...

Would I be right in saying Trump was a bit of a marmite character?

I learned a new phrase here.
I wonder what the US equivalent would be -- "tofu character"? 

Biden mandates that the term "alien" shall henceforth be replaced in all federal documents by "non-citizen". 

Coincidentally, NASA just landed a rover on Mars to continue the search for non-citizen life.

The UK should have a referendum on the gig economy. Only way to get it back. That's what was done in California -- and it worked!  Ditto for the EU after they (predictably?) try to kill it also

Texas is freezing, causing its power grid to fail. 
What's the cause of this unusual freeze?

With one month to go, should mean a very nice safety margin in the final count!

Here's a sadly predictable consequence:
Trump lawyer van der Veen says his house was attacked, he's faced death threats

Sorry, but in assessing the destructiveness and importance of the event, the details matter.   Obviously, the worst thing is death. Apparently 5 died:  - Brian Sicknick, capitol police, of so-far-unknown causes (see above)  - Ashli Babbitt, a rioter, shot by a capitol police, while climbing though a...

But with [$]\nu=1[$] the two differ only by trivial factors

Did the Jan 6 capitol rioters kill anybody? We know capitol policeman Brian Sicknick died. How exactly did he die?
According to CNN (a generally anti-Trump news source), it's not clear

Sure,

Then, of course, there's the infamous Craig Wright (the putative 1/2-Satoshi), who apparently lost the private key that he shared with his late partner Dave Kleiman (the other putative 1/2-Satoshi) to 1 million bitcoins. Wasn't JohnLeM looking to give a Darwin award to a mathematician? Well -- ther...

A new thread to follow this event.

The first milestone, which requires approx 1.5 million signatures by March 17, 2021 to trigger a 2021 special election, looks very likely to be reached
