:hug: it's okay to not.
The dumbest thing I've ever bought
was a 2020 planner.

"Does anyone ever think about Denethor, the guy driven to madness by staying up late into the night alone in the dark staring at a flickering device he believed revealed unvarnished truth about the outside word, but which in fact showed mostly manipulated media created by a hostile power committed to portraying nothing but bad news framed in the worst possible way in order to sap hope, courage, and the will to go on? Seems like he's someone we should think about." - Dave_LF

In a similar boat as Inanna and Voronwë today, figuring out the last four letters first. Fortunately this ended better than in some previous such instances.

Just barely survived Quordle, but I had possibly my best Octordle yet in terms of finishing in less movies than allowed, and didn't go all the way down to the wire in Sedecordle. :P

#4 got a bit close but I do like the symmetry.

A word like this should not have been such a close call. Probably a sign that it's best to wait until after sleeping to try any more games. :P
