To up the quality of The Pub in between dank memes and "but enough about *insert Acey/AP/VS/Begbie*" banter, this thread is for la crème de la crème of content close to our hearts. For things that go a little deeper into topics.

If you believe it to be especially worthy/must read for The Fam - post here.


To kick us off, I posted this a little while ago:

Just finished reading the Buzzfeed Russia article in chunks over a few days.  Terrifying and fascinating. The whole thing seems to be turning into a way to troll Britain into an international incident, rather than settling any of Putin's early disputes. Post-Brexit, Russian money will be even more valuable to keep the City oiled as well. Really good read.

Fuck ever befriending a Russian, just in case Eek
