What's the Wordle?!

I got really lucky today and finished in 3. My second guess I got the second and fourth letters and I didn’t see how to make it work without the actual word. The bot says it was 90+ lucky.

 

WORDLE ALERT - Just so you know there are nine words that end in the last four letters. I picked the wrong four.

The thing that sucks about wordle is you can't try a different word entirely just to eliminate letters.

Consider yourself warned.

 

You can unless you play on hard mode.

 

After what seemed like a bunch of these lately that hurt me, I'm on probably my best streak so far this week - 2, 2, 3. I can't see the bot anymore, but I'm guessing I'm not alone.

 

The Athletic is now beta testing Sports Connections

 

Yeah, I was a TWO!! in Wordle today (knock wood) and perfect on Connections.

 

What is kohlrabi?

I think I like the strands game the best of Wordle adjacent games.

 

Strands is becoming an obsession for me.

As for kohlrabi, it looks like a turnip, tastes similar to broccoli and is in the same family as cabbage and Brussels Sprouts.

 

My goal on strands is to never use a hint. Probably only do 1 every week at most.

 

Almost fell into the obvious trap in Connections today

 

I figured out purple right away, just didn't know one of the words was pronounced like that.
