Today's ✨ Strange-Shaped Sunday ✨ is a SLICY, or a LITS (Hex) if you prefer.

Rules: Shade one tetrahex (four orthogonally-connected hexagons) of cells in each region so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Two tetrahexes of the same shape may not touch orthogonally, counting rotations and reflections as the same. No three shaded cells may meet at a vertex (i.e. any 'triangle' of 3 cells cannot be entirely shaded).
