Länksamling 2015:14

Länksamlingen är tillbaka, med vissa ändringar. Jag samlar fortfarande det roligaste, intressanta, läsvärda, allmänt häftiga och galnaste som det (borde ha) snackats om den senaste tiden, men jag har inte riktigt tid att hålla någon regelbunden frekvens pga. tidsbrist. Som en följd kommer det att bli mindre fokus på aktuella nyheter och i stället fokusera på tidlöst nonsens och annat smått och gott.

Vi börjar med en recap för sommaren som aldrig mera kommer att vara:
