fuck horoscopes and mbtis, what's your favourite R package
I've been refusing to get into ggplot for several years now and today is the day it's coming back to haunt me. 🥲
Wes Anderson color palettes
me: wow I’d love to make a really pretty map without jumping through a million hoops and scrolling through pages of documentation!
the creators of ggplot, presumably:
(I’m working on mapping so you know what that means…. time for niche memes about my love/hate relationship with ggplot)
Two days ago, I finally figured out how to plot a geological time scale and I can now put it underneath some plots that show data against time, which is cool. I still couldn’t figure out how to tell ggplot to arrange the categories (y) by age (x) and it’s not too important a problem to solve right now, but, you know, I kinda want to get things perfect.*
(x label is still overlapping with one tick label, but that x scale keeps changing, so that’s one thing I don’t care about right now.)
* options like order() don’t work because the categories aren’t unique. If anybody has an idea how to solve it, please drop me a dm or answer this post. thx
Made in R with usmap and ggplot2
I made my first ever map of Westeros to prove that the Starks won the Game of Thrones! Especially Sansa. Bran might be a villain but who cares, f*ck the 6 kingdoms. I choose to believe Jon is an unofficial leader of the land north of The Wall even though he doesn’t want it.
