good winter = good content

Much like all the best parties and award-worthy movies (guys, Knives Out!!!), good winter is similarly freakin stacked with some of the best investigative journalism for a reason, which this handy explainer from Quartz elucidates: Why so much investigative journalism gets published in December. 

Tl;dr, it’s because the Pulitzer deadlines are on Dec. 31, and contrary to what all your high school teachers attempted to hammer home, every single adult out in the real world is still working right up until the last minute, always. Comforting!
