Movie scenes in which guns have been replaced with selfie sticks. Let's be honest, this is probably the end goal of the internet in general, right? I can't remember where I saw this but it sounds like something via T Kay or Cait. [T Kay, I can't find your Denmark blog or I would link to it here.]

I enjoyed this long read about a man's search for the people who spent a winter during WW2 holed up with his parents in a basement in Hungary, hiding from the Germans.
