PULLING THE MASTER SWORD

This essay is dedicated to my children. It is both a metaphorical analysis of Ocarina of Time and an anti-adulthood manifesto of sorts, about how to avoid becoming like a zombie in Hyrule Castle Town.

I hope you like it.

If you're a Libby user, this is a really great thing to check out. I had a couple reciprocal libraries attached to my account, but that was a few years ago, and apparently there are several more now.

"HOT LIBRARY TIP from a friend: if the book you want has a long wait time, you can use https://reciprocard.com/ to check what other libraries might have a reciprocal agreement with yours...and you can get the book (via Libby) from there."

The author of @allaboutberlin on how Google AI Overviews are killing independent web publishing, citing a 70% drop in traffic after seven years of steady growth. His work trains the model. The model is replacing his site. There is no credit, clicks, or revenue. This is what the "enshittification" of the open web looks like in practice.

Hard to imagine moving to Berlin without stumbling upon his guides at some point.
