I saw some wacky inflatable guys out protecting crops today. If this is actually a more effective scarecrow, my next question is how much funnier could Wizard of Oz be?

For Slate, I wrote about what it's like to get a terminal cancer diagnosis when you're 42. slate.com/life/2026/03...
I had gone to the local ER, expecting a run-of-the-mill gallbladder removal that would have me back at work by Monday. Instead, they shipped me down to the big regional hospital in Fargo, North Dakota, where an MRI showed a gallstone, yes, but also a 9.5-centimeter tumor wrapped tightly around the main bile duct and several major blood vessels in the liver. The gastrointestinal specialist was in the room with my wife and me when the radiology report came back. I watched his face drop and his entire demeanor change as he read through it for the first time. He was an affable guy roughly the same age as me. “We just don’t see this in guys our age,” he said. I was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma, or cancer of the bile duct. As far as cancers go, it’s an especially brutal one: The five-year survival rate is around 10 percent, and most people diagnosed with it are dead within a year. That was going to be me. Cholangiocarcinoma is deadly in large part because it is so rare: There are only about 8,000 new cases in the U.S. each year. Cancer treatment advances patient by patient, clinical trial by clinical trial. Each patient is a new data point. When there are few data points, the science advances very slowly. “There are some chemo and radiation therapies that can slow it down a little bit, maybe buy you some extra time, but nothing that can kill it,” the GI doc explained. “The only way to cure it is to cut it out completely, either by surgically resecting the liver or doing a full-on transplant, but by the time most people are showing symptoms, it’s too late for either of those.” “Is it too late for me?” I asked. “I don’t know,” he said.

I think it’s beautiful that if you told a bunch of vegetables to imagine being at a water park, only the celery would imagine being the water slide
