Start small.
A narrow question is often the beginning of a better investigation.
About the publication
Curiosity is
a method.
I make charts about the small, strange questions hiding in everyday life.
The person behind the posts
Hi, I'm Brianna.
I am a data-minded storyteller interested in the places where culture, language, and human behavior leave a measurable trace.
This is my notebook for following those traces. I use public data, text analysis, and a healthy amount of curiosity to turn ordinary observations into questions worth spending time with.
The goal is not to make numbers feel impressive. It is to make them feel useful: clear enough to inspect, honest enough to question, and interesting enough to send to a friend.
A few working principles

Methods, sources, and uncertainty belong alongside the conclusion.
Stay surprised.
The best chart is the one that changes what you thought you knew.
