We Were Shocked…
On March 21st, 2025, authorities in Cape May, New Jersey, arrested 30-year-old Kimberly Cruz-Feliciano after her child arrived at school on March 17th with visible marks on their body, which investigators determined were caused by an electric shock collar originally used for the family’s deceased dog.
The child reportedly told authorities that the collar was used on them constantly at home whenever they upset their mother and Cruz-Feliciano had threatened them against speaking out. She faces charges including aggravated assault, endangering the welfare of a child and witness tampering.
Her mother, 59-year-old Sonia Feliciano, was also arrested and charged with evidence tampering for allegedly disposing of the collar. This case has drawn significant attention due to its disturbing nature and the involvement of family members in the alleged abuse.
Human Cannonball?
Chachi “The Rocketman” Valencia, a seasoned human cannonball performer, is currently recovering from a serious accident that occurred on March 2nd, 2025, at the Riverside County Fair and National Date Festival in Indio, California.
During his performance, a sudden gust of wind blew him off course midair causing him to miss the safety net. He struck the side of the net and crashed to the ground, sustaining severe injuries, including a lacerated liver, broken ribs and a broken wrist.
Valencia, a sixth-generation circus performer with over 23 years of experience in the human cannonball act, was hospitalized following the incident. Despite the severity of his injuries, reports indicate he is in good spirits and determined to return to performing, though he has stated he will take fewer risks in windy conditions moving forward.
A GoFundMe page has been established to support his medical expenses and rehabilitation, raising over $10,000 so far. Currently, he is recovering at a relative’s home in California before returning to his home in North Texas. His focus remains on healing fully before taking to the skies again, a testament to his resilience after what he described as the most serious accident of his career.

Daily Prompt @ The Pie!
Weather is one of those universal topics that everyone has an opinion about. Whether you’re the type who thrives in the chaos of a thunderstorm or prefers the quiet calm of a sunny day, I think your favorite type of weather says a lot about you. It’s not just always about comfort. It can also be about the vibe, the mood and the possibilities each forecast brings. So, what’s my favorite type of weather? Let’s explore a few contenders before I land on my pick.
First, there’s the crisp, cool magic of a clear autumn day. The air feels fresh, the leaves crunch under your feet and there’s just enough chill to justify a cozy sweater. It’s perfect for a walk, a coffee run, or even just staring out the window with a book in hand. The sunlight has that golden slant that makes everything look a little more cinematic. It’s hard to argue with a day that feels like nature’s hitting the reset button.
Then there’s the drama of a thunderstorm. The sky darkens, the wind picks up and suddenly you’re in the middle of a live performance! The thunder rolls like percussion and lightning cuts through the gloom. It’s raw, unpredictable energy. For some, it’s a thrill worth staying up for; for others, it’s a cue to hide under a blanket. Either way, it’s weather with personality.
What about a snowy day? The world goes quiet under a blanket of white and there’s something almost meditative about watching flakes drift down. It’s the kind of weather that begs for hot cocoa, a fireplace, or (if you’re feeling adventurous) building a snowman that’ll collapse by morning. It’s nostalgic and serene, though I’ll admit the shoveling part isn’t a selling point for me!
Sunny and warm seems to be a huge fan favorite! Endless summer days where the sky’s a perfect blue and you can practically feel the vitamin D soaking in. It’s the weather of picnics, beach trips and flip-flops. But let’s be real: too much of it can turn into a sweaty slog, especially if you’re not near a pool or an air conditioner.
So, where do I land? My favorite type of weather is a tie between a cool, foggy morning and a rainy afternoon. Fog has this mysterious, almost otherworldly quality. It has that vibe like the world’s been softened around the edges. It’s quiet, introspective and makes even a quick walk feel like an adventure. Rain, on the other hand, is my productivity weather. The steady patter against the window is the perfect background noise for writing, thinking, or just zoning out with a playlist. Plus, it’s an excuse to stay inside without guilt.
