Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 06-11-26
I missed Pook-Emu Bee links yesterday, but I am making sure to make up for it by starting this post yesterday. 1. Uzbek Fighters in Syria Face Tensions with Al-Sharaa’s Government (Jacob Zenn for Jamestown. June 9, 2026.) Whatever disagreements the various bands of foreign jihadists have, the Uzbek fighters have good reason to figure out a way to make it work. That reason? This incident can also serve as a reminder to Central Asian states to continue developing repatriation frameworks […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/pook-emu-bee-links-for-06-11-26/

Into the Deep
I’m sitting here, mouth agape, staring at my phone screen as I do “market research” for a new project.
My wife has gotten really into interactive fiction games. This appears to be what they’re calling visual novels that aren’t targeted at weebs. She was vomplainijg about the dark patterns and the frustrating and exploitative monetization features when she said “I wish there were more stories that I was interested in.”

Video: A Defense of Visual Novels
I learned about an interesting YouTube video about visual novels titled A Defense of Visual Novels: What are They and What They Do Well through an email exchange with the creator. I have been collecting materials for a future article on making the most of the visual novel medium, so I can now add this in-depth video take to the collection. If you are interested in visual novels, the video comes with my recommendation. Below, I highlight a few points for emphasis.

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-20-26
We are having a second consecutive 90+ degree day here in Brooklyn today's Pook-Emu Bee links are warmer than the outside temperatures. Links 1. Google Search as you know it is over (Sarah Perez for TechCrunch. May 19, 2026.) The AIfication of Google Search is concerning but NLJ has been hitting new highs in Google Search despite my disfavoring AI cawlers via .htaccess and robots, so we'll see if it has any effect on my numbers. 2. Japanese indie gay bar management sim Sodomy Fatale will […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/pook-emu-bee-links-for-05-20-26/
