I took a look at Netflix’s ā€Shadow and Boneā€. It was better than I expected. I went in for a generic young adult fantasy series. Turned out to be less generic and more delightfully slavic. The plot is a bit cliche Chosen One prophesies etc, but the aesthetic, worldbuilding and acting is rather good.
 

I was listening to the Skeptic's Guide to the Universe, and they were talking about the various covid variants. One suggested a murder of variants. They went through the list of group names, and settled on A Loki of Variants. 🄁
 

Not bad.

But there’s other viruses that mutate FAR more rapidly than Covid. Like Influenza. Its mutation rate is a big reason why we have new vaccines every year, and why even those get less effective as the year goes on.

OTOH, using ā€œa Lokiā€ as the group name for ANY virus’ family of mutations has my 100% approval!
 

I think it's the fact we're currently on the mu variant. Since this started there are 9 known variations. I understand viruses mutate. Even if it's debatable if they're living, it's very clear they evolve. I don't know quickly other viruses mutate.

I too, support using a loki for grouping.
 

I asked my mom "why is the pie green?"
Mom: The white chocolate chips were Frozen themed (white and blue). The margarine is yellow. You mix yellow food dye with blue food dye you get green pie.
 


I had an adventure today. The quest: Find 4 used tires. Encounter location #1 had 2 tires. I slew the guardians and gained my treasure. I still needed 2 more. I went on to two more locations but failed on my search rolls. With bad tires and rain movement was hampered. I rethought my approach. I used diplomacy and started calling around. I succeeded and proceeded to location 4 and the final show down. I completed my quest but it took over 3 hours. I needed a long rest afterward.

So…you were tired?
