The kid will not be injured this time. This is a 3D space, seen in 2D. The tree will fall 30 degrees away from the viewer whereas the boy is 30 degrees nearer the viewer as evidenced by his body being angled slightly away from the viewer as he watches his dad. The dad is not safe once Mom finds out.
Junior: Porque ese es tu trabajo. ¡Y yo quiero ser como tú! Eddie: Espera... ¿tú crees que yo soy domador de leones? Junior: Sí, vi los pantalones de cuero y los látigos en tu armario. Eddie: ¡Ah! Ah... Junior: Eres domador de leones, ¿verdad? Eddie: Mmm... sí. Te lo iba a decir, pero se me olvidó.
Duolingo, you can't just end the story like that! How does Eddie explain his secondary source of income now that Junior thinks he's a lion tamer after finding his hidden stash of leather pants and whips?

Whenever it rains, I sing "Rain, Rain, Beautiful Rain" by Ladysmith Black Mambazo. In today's gentle rain, I decided to revisit the album that introduced it to me. So beautiful! If Toto's "I Bless the Rain Down in Africa" is a 10, this is a 100. open.spotify.com/album/5GoqzA...

I went and saw Project Hail Mary.
A guy came in with his service dog and the dog sat there the whole time just concentrating on the movie.
Afterwards I told the guy I was amazed your dog watched the movie like that.
He replied, me too especially because he hated the book.

Spent half of my class this morning talking about this ruling from yesterday. For all that the Trump administration claims to be acting in defense of Jews on campus, my Jewish students are so much more afraid of this ruling than of anything happening on campus. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...
Okay so why was I the only one in the theater tonight who gasped when Ryan Gosling ran a centrifuge with two tubes in the whole thing, sitting right next to each other? Sorry was I the only scientist in the film society theater tonight??
This episode of #MST3K has been missing for 37 years. Holy shit! Apparently it was found at a garage sale and the quality is fantastic! Lost media geeks are going to have a field day!
Keep circulating the tapes!

There was a German in valet parking. A Belgian and a Swiss at odds over vol-au-vents in the kitchen. A small contingent of African spies (Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire, Gabon) on the janitorial staff, relatively careless about Francophone eavesdroppers. She spotted a very young and nervous Turkmen agent shoving a dead-drop spike into the eye of a gaudy reindeer statue at Christmastime, and duly stole it, learning his real name (Kasymguly) and workname (Kevin) in the process. The waitstaff had a Russian agent named Vladimir and a Ukrainian agent named Volodymyr and they'd nearly killed each other in the west parking lot one night. The Polish agent Wtodzimierz, who was considerably older and world-weary, smoked a cigarette, watched them brawl, and predicted they'd both be fired for coming to work with visible bruises. He was right, which was a pity; Volodymyr had been very handsome indeed. They were replaced, in due time, by Dmitri and Dmytro, at which point she began to wonder if Kyiv and Moscow were being deliberate about all this for their own inscrutable reasons.
sorry to poast too much about this but its my first published fiction since high school and i had fun imagining the many many spies at mar a lago
