Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 03-05-26

It is time four our daily Pook-Emu Bee links. If you enjoy the links, you can follow via feed (although I personally recommend following the main site feed for all of my postings).

Links from around the web

1. RFK Jr. Announces Plan to Teach Americans to Cook (Elizabeth Weibel for Breitbart. March 4, 2026.)

I support encouraging Americans to make their own food with real ingredients, both in and of itself and for keeping our HHS Secretary out of trouble. With that being said, I fear his proposed recipies may be a little too steak-heavy for me. (Steak is good of course, provided it is well-done and done in moderation.)

1. Columbia Anti-Israel Organizer, Now a New York City Social Worker, Calls For Zionists To ‘Burn In Hell’ (Jessia Costescu for The Washington Free Beacon. March 3, 2026.)

If you told me this was the moderate position for social workers with degrees from Columbia, I’d be willing to believe you.

1. Substantive Due Process After Mirabelli (Josh Blackman for The Volokh Conspiracy. March 3, 2026.)

I’m hearing the entrance music for Justice Thomas’s “Privileges and Immunities” concurrence in McDonald v. Chicago.

1. “Entry-Level PC Segment Will Disappear by 2028,” Says Gartner, as Soaring Memory Costs Start to Cripple Manufacturers (Muhammad Zuhair for Wccftech. March 1, 2026.)

I’m more concerned about the “build your own PC” segment disappearing due to cost-prohibitive RAM and other components, but that ship is already circumnavigating the globe.

1. Kevin Durant: face of the NBA Internet Era (Molly Morrison. February 26, 2026.)

Far be it from me to give life advice to one of the greatest scorers (and players) in NBA history, but I think he would be better off starting his own website to share his learned perspective on basketball than continuing to post from various acounts on X.

1. Geese in the Snow in Brooklyn Bridge Park (Nicholas A. Ferrell at The New Leaf Journal. March 3, 2026.)

Honk.

Video Game Stories and Standing the Test of Time (Nicholas A. Ferrell at The New Leaf Journal. September 28, 2022.)

I had to skim this article to remember it, but I see I published it to subtly commemorate what was then the 24th anniversary of the release of Pokémon Red and Blue in the United States. I focused on qualities that can make video games timeless, with an emphasis on good story aesthetics and ways to engage the player. It is not my most incisive games essay, but I think it stands up well (I am adding “related articles” to it since I had not done so before.)
