The Unsolved Mystery of the Malibu Creek Murder When a man was killed in Malibu Creek State Park last summer while camping with his two young daughters, it sent the placid Southern California community into hysterics—spawning amateur sleuths, conspiracy theories, and public paranoia. Was it related to a rash of unsolved incidents in the area? But while the tragedy’s aftermath publicly played out like a new season of Serial, there was also a family left picking up the pieces after a seemingly random act of violence. This is a story about what happens when lightning strikes in the most chilling manner imaginable.

The Tale of the Tape It was the video that ushered in the UFO renaissance: a grainy clip showing the Navy’s encounter with a mysterious aircraft in 2004. The Pentagon says the public was never supposed to see it. So who leaked it? How’d they do it? And what does the footage actually show? https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/research/a30538203/navy-ufo-video-investigation

Really great essay on how capital-driven agribusiness practices, namely industrialized farming and ecological destruction, are causing pandemics.
