There is a remarkable parallel between the theory of Coxeter groups (think of the symmetric group or the dihedral group) and matroids (think of your favorite graph or point configuration) from the perspective of combinatorial cohomology theories. I will give an overview of the similarity and report on recent my joint work with Tom Braden, Jacob Matherne, Nick Proudfoot, and Botong Wang on singular Hodge theory for combinatorial geometries: https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.06088
