So @defector.com is on a complete tear today, I gotta say, and I'm going to share gift links for three amazing pieces (and there are even more beyond that, but really, consider subscribing). First up: going deep on something at once typical and that still needs calling out.

There needs to be a conversation about TKO’s influence on the company and how it’s watering down the product. Can’t remember a more underwhelming WrestleMania. Travis Scott? Really?

North Hempstead is the lone town on Long Island without a cat shelter, leaving activists like Liz Diamond to care for the area's stray cat population.

Diamond feeds a pair of cats twice a day behind a Roslyn shopping center. She named them Precious and Rascal.

Fyre Festival 2 is tomorrow, according to Billy McFarland's latest IG story.

I spent a day with McFarland and a group of adoring influencers at a private airport for an event meant to promote the reboot of the failed music festival.

If roasted turkey is so great, why do we only eat it once a year? This Thanksgiving, let's change the narrative and prepare something everyone likes: Fried chicken. Pizza. Dumplings. Or literally anything else. #NotAnAd

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.
