"textContent": "Hiya Skeleton Crew,\n\nMother’s Day is comin up! In its honor, let’s have a li’l quote from Anna Jarvis, i.e. the lady who invented it:\n\n> A printed card means nothing except that you are too lazy to write to the woman who has done more for you than anyone in the world. And candy! You take a box to Mother—and then eat most of it yourself. A pretty sentiment.\n\n#### Answers to Last Time\n\n * The name I blanked out from yesterday’s __Canterbury Tales__ quote was ****Grisildis**** , which is spelled a li’l more modernly as ****Griselda****. Not itself such a popular name nowadays, but it’s ultimately where we got the name of the video game princess (by way of Zelda Fitzgerald).\n * We’re smack dab in the middle of the sign of ****Taurus**** , which lasts from April 20 to May 21.\n\n\n\n## Today’s Trivias\n\n# Trivia 1\n\n**What mathematical shape** ’s defined by the formula:\n\n?\n\nI can give ya the extra hint that, much like a cylinder, this shape’s surface area is 4π2 _R_ • _r_ & its volume is 2π2 _R_ • _r_ 2.\n\n# Trivia 2\n\n**What waterway** separates Australia & New Guinea? The indigenous folks from the islands here’ll sometimes get lumped together with Aboriginal Australians into the umbrella category of “First Peoples of Australia”.\n\n* * *\n\n💀 Submit Your Answers 💀\n\n💀 View Season Leaderboard 💀\n\n* * *\n\n## OK then\n\nByeeeeeeeeeeeeee",
