  1. Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 06-04-26

    I missed two days of Pook-Emu Bee links. But it is not all bad: Now we have even more links from around the web to choose from. 1. Why I Built Bubbles (Ben at Bubbles Blog. March 26, 2026.) I've been an RSS obsessive for years. Hundreds of feeds, hand-picked one by one. But RSS only shows you sources you already know. New voices don't find you there. I added Bubbles' Daily Briefing to my feed reader to find new articles of interest. Nevertheless, I offer my qualified disagreement with the […]

  2. Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-08-26

    I was busy this morning and forgot to write daily Pook-Emu Bee links. But since tomorrow is newsletter day and there are no Pook-Emu Bee links on newsletter day, I figured I would publish a late-night edition of the Pook-Emu Bee. 1. Can subway rats give New Yorkers hantavirus? Only if you do something extremely disgusting (Natalie O'Neill for the New York Post. May 8, 2026.) I wouldn't put it past the TikTok "creators." 2. Iryna Zarutska Murder Suspect Deemed Incompetent, But Case Will […]

    Reviewing inflatable Halloween decorations in Brownstone Brooklyn, seen and photographed in October 2024.

  8. Many people dress up for Halloween. For example, I plan to be the editor-administrator of The New Leaf Journal for Halloween 2024.

  9. I was walking in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, on the evening of October 23, 2024. A little girl (probably about 9 years old) was lagging behind her father. She asked him to slow down. When he did not slow down, she dropped the following line:
