I hate when the cheese in a salad is in the form of a few giant balls, so I have to choose how to ration it appropriately. I can’t be trusted!!!

Four NYPL branches had broken air conditioning this week amid 90-degree temperatures, despite being city-designated "cooling centers." Library officials blame $750,000 in deferred maintenance exacerbated by Mayor Eric Adams’s recent budget reductions.

I think it’s weird when sports journalists report injury news with their own feelings about it. It should be implied that no one *likes* the injury

Swimming is a brutal sport. Lydia Jacoby didn't make the Olympics in 100 breast and then scratched the 200. Buuuuut if you want to learn more about her (and you should!), might I suggest this profile I published last week?

Wikipedia’s editors have voted to declare the Anti-Defamation League “generally unreliable” on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, adding it to a list of banned and partially banned sources. They also voted to deem the organization unreliable on the topic of antisemitism.
