It sounds like a bad horror movie. But it's actually the name of the billions of cicadas expected to emerge this month in parts of the Midwest after spending 17 years underground.

That is why I don't live there. Probably won't visit there in the next few months, either. I'll have to mark my calendar to not visit again in 2024.
