"The surprising benefits of switching to ‘lamb mowers’" by Michael J. Coren
- why: worth it just for the little looping video at the top of the article of the sheep getting out of their little trailer. it's like a clown car full of sheep. they're so fluffy.
“Sam Bankman-Fried is going to talk himself right into jail” by Elizabeth Lopatto
- why: now this is what I call court reporting!! contains some real gems, such as the following passage about prosecutor Danielle Sassoon: "Unfortunately for [Sam Bankman-Fried], the cross-examination was conducted by Sassoon, who looks like someone who uses “summer” as a verb, and often appears deceptively timid, with her hands held close to her chest. In her cross, she simply unhinged her jaw and ate Bankman-Fried." previously, Sassoon is described as "beat[ing] him like a piñata." it's good stuff.
