We're all about conspiracy theories today!

  • This crazy and captivating story about a woman who learned that the father of her oldest son was a spy keeping tabs on her and her animal rights organization [New Yorker]
  • Do crisper drawers really make a difference? We're still investigating (we're thinking probably not), but this article about organizing a fridge seems like it might make more room for afternoon snacks [The Kitchn]
  • Not conspiracy-related: We talked cantilevers as a simple classroom challenge, which got us thinking about how much bigger cantilevers work. As always, there are some great architectural examples on The Internet [Dezeen]

There were only a few people at lunch today, but we talked about a lot about movies and TV shows

  • Our favorite horror movies, that may or may not have scared the bejeezus out of us [Ed. note: The Ring is my scariest, but not my favorite because it was TOO SCARY.] [Rotten Tomatoes]
  • 90s TV shows that totally hold up. Our favorites this week: MacGyver and Star Trek: TNG. [AV Club]
  • Isabella Rossellini is awesome. This interview of her and Mario Batali is so cool and Italian [Interview Magazine]

Recommendations from the Swayspace team to get you through a mid-week slump..

  • Under the Skin is a weird, beautiful, and atmospheric movie, and everyone should watch it so we can talk about it [Metacritic]
  • The Magicians is a fantasy trilogy for the Harry Potter generation now that we're older [Amazon]
  • For a slightly shorter – yet very emotional – experience, listen to this Radiolab story from Jon Ronson about the artificial intelligence of Bina48 and the very human story behind it. [Radiolab]
  • If watching The Knick on HBO Go doesn't sound appetizing, listening to Sawbones is a great way to learn about the history of medicine without being so grossed out by fake gore. [Sawbones]
