Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting and thought I'd share.

- Our foreign aid policies do not pass the common sense test. Not by a long shot.

- Very cool explanation on how Ian Fleming ended up giving James Bond his trademark Walther PPK

- I agree with Aaron Gleeman - Willy Aybar: Mediocre baseball player, world-class scumbag

- Seriously cool bookshelves

- David Mamet, America's foremost dramatist, turns conservative, and tells the world why.

- I seriously would hang a print of this in my front room

    “They didn’t want the shows to be too interesting or plot-heavy (aka “normal”) that it distracted the viewer from their ‘primary screen’ of their phone. The streamers wanted to ensure that the viewer kept the streaming service on for as long as possible, something simply playing in the background and not intruding on their social media scrolling.”
