NYT print one true fact challenge (difficulty impossible)
Clip from a New York Times article: "One Battle After Another" is an original story, not part of an existing franchise or based off widely known characters.

woof. Sotomayor wrecking the majority's pitiful, bankrupt language games.
From Sotomayor's dissent in "US vs. Skrmetti": "The majority emphasizes that, in Tennessee, “no minor may be administered puberty blockers or hormones to treat gender dysphoria,” while “minors of any sex may be administered puberty blockers or hormones for other purposes.” Ante, at 13. But nearly every discriminatory law is susceptible to a similarly race- or sex-neutral characterization. A prohibition on interracial marriage, for example, allows no person to marry someone outside of her race, while allowing persons of any race to marry within their races."

you have to work so, so hard to write something so deliberately obfuscatory
lede from a newspaper story: "a 17-shot fusillade from a shooter with a semiautomatic handgun sent two Israeli tourists to the hospital after an encounter Saturday night in Miami Beach."
