The tenth planet gets a name

[dianeduane]

Or the second planette. (Or dwarf planet, or planetoid, or whatever-the-F we're calling the Small Guys Out Past Neptune this week.)

Anyway: the planet formerly known as Xena is now Eris.  ...Which makes so much sense, given recent events.  And her moon is Dysnomia. (Which I would otherwise have pegged as the word for the syndrome that makes you hate naming things, but never mind.)

But now let’s get serious. What’s the new body’s symbol?

It really ought to be an apple.

It just has to be an apple. Hail Eris! All hail Discordia! Kallisti! Heute die Welt, morgen das Sonnensystem!

We will sing this verse for Eris,
She's the Greek goddess of discord,
Which is why this bit doesn't rhyme
Or scan very well
But it's good enough for me!

Gimme that Real Old-time Religion...

In INWO terms: Discordian Society, supported by L-4 Society and Flat Earth Society, opposed by Big Media, successfully plays a "Hail Eris!" goal.

I've heard that one for Loki.

Hail Eris, full of grace!
Holy Queen of outer space!
Goddess who gets In Your Face!
Hail Eris, full of grace!
