"textContent": "Hiya Skeleton Crew,\n\nI’ve been fallin behind in scorin up all the answer submissions youse guys have been sendin in, but I think I’m all caught up again.\n\nThis is the last week of the trivia season before I take a li’l break, so make sure to submit those answers to get as many points as ya can! Submissions seem like they kinda fell off last week, I dunno if maybe some of youse were too hungover from a crazy Groundhog Day to submit? Or maybe a buncha youse are still stuck in a Groundhog Day time loop & couldn’t submit on account of re-livin the same day over & over again into eternity??\n\nAh jeez!! I hope everyone’s OK!!!\n\n#### Answers to Last Time\n\nThemie Thursday was all ’bout featurin the it’s-not-just-sometimes-but-actually-pretty-often-a-vowel, __Y__.\n\n * The Sondheim musical based on the memoirs of the “deciduous” ecdysiast (a.k.a. burlesque performer) I quoted? That was _****Gypsy****_.\n * The __Glaucidium gnoma__ is a li’l gnomish owl, __Sorex minutus__ is a minute shrew & __Cercartetus nanus__ is a nano-size possum – & they’re all called ****pygmy**** animals in their common names.\n\n\n\n## Today’s Trivias\n\n# Trivia 1\n\n**What 10-letter word** comes from the Latin for “deprecate, as an ill omen”, & NOT from the Latin for “away from humankind” as folks sometimes say?\n\nThe word’s main modern association froze into place after a guy named Henry Newman wrote an article for _The Statesman_ newspaper in Kolkata & mistranslated the phrase _metoh kangmi_ in 1921.\n\n# Trivia 2\n\nA _leveret_ is the word that’s used for a young **what type of animal** , the largest of the lagomorphs, that’s less than a year old?\n\n* * *\n\n💀 Submit Your Answers 💀\n\n💀 View Season Leaderboard 💀\n\n* * *\n\n## OK then\n\nByeeeeeeeeeeeeee",
