Insightful review. Captures my feelings in particular about what happened to the alethiometer in The Rose Field.
THE ROSE FIELD destroys Lyra’s alethiometer in its opening pages—and that’s just the start. Lucy Scholes on how Philip Pullman’s conclusion to THE BOOK OF DUST trilogy rewrites the rules of children’s literature and growing up:
Philip Pullman, beyond childhood and evil
‘The Book of Dust’ isn’t just in conversation with the author’s earlier fantasy trilogy—it also unpicks our presumptions about growing up

"Plagiarism Machines!” is the apt phrase to describe what LLM's essentially are, or how they are being used even if they are technically interesting in themselves.
My friends, I say this with all the love in my heart: Right now might not be the moment for “But we should be TOLERANT and NUANCED about the plagiarism machines!”

Your tolerance and “nuance” will be weaponised by the grifters and their apologists. Please respect yourselves more.

This short content format is interesting. Sometimes you feel like being long winded about something and wax poetical or probe something deeply. Yet here you can't. I guess it trains you to be succinct. Maybe there is an equivalent space but for essays somewhere.

More traditional media experimentation! Watercolor, ink, color pencil, and a little bit of digital touchup.

“But there were eucalypts, three of them. My favorite trees on the land. They were a fraction too close to the house, but I couldn’t cut them down for that. I loved them too much. In the end everything burned for those eucalypts.”

Despite everything, there is no denying the world, with its green and brown and blue, is still astonishingly beautiful.

The Sultan was confused that the woman didn't match the description he had heard of her beauty.

"I am Layla," the woman explained. "The problem is that you are not Majnun."
