Instapaper. I used it for years but switched to Pocket because of the Kobo link. Have reverted, and happy to see it still works. They’re promising more features, so maybe they’ll add Kobo. Works great on iPad and iPhone as an app. (PS Congrats on The Sprawl!)

A man walked into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder. The bartender said: "Does that animal talk?"
The parrot replied, "I don't know."

Marianne Faithfull: 'You know, I'm not everybody's cup of tea!' Late, rude and unapologetic... and then the interview goes from bad to worse. But after some prompting and wine, Marianne Faithfull talks to Lynn Barber about finding a new lover at last, what she rea...

this interview - Lynn Barber on Marianne Faithfull - is the sort of brilliant, bonkers thing nobody writes anymore. It reads like a meeting of fabulous monsters

This Christmas, spare a thought for the world’s richest man For disruptors like Elon Musk, the statement of intent is all. What happens next – such as running a new US government department – is distressingly boring.

Greenland shark with β€œI am not a toy, I am a 400 year commitment” text

Think carefully before buying a Greenland shark for the holidays. They are, after all, the world’s longest-living vertebrate.
