I'm probably the last person to realize this but "Heist" and "Adorn" together contain the 10 most used letters in the English Language. (sh.itjust.works)

I don't see the point of meta-gaming wordle. I like it when I guess ZEBRA and the Z turns yellow. Or QUEST and they're all black. I dunno. I min max everything else I do... Wordle is my safe space.

No problem there. For me, though, Wordle is a fun problem to optimize. Whenever I lose a puzzle, it reminds me to look at the problem again and try something else.

Currently, I start with LANCE and then start trying to use letters RTIPDSHBMO in some optimized follow-ups. My next step would be to write a bot to try every starting word and every arrangement of preferred letters to find the best heuristic that never loses. But, I'm in no rush to do that.

But yeah, it's also fun to challenge myself and play a stylish starting word like TAROT, MPRET, or SHITE, and then try to win anyway.

My safe space is tarot cards. 0 logic, all vibes.

There's a reason I have a poster sized version of The Fool on my wall.

THAT'S MY SIGNIFIER! I'm nonbinary and pretty much all of the normal ones are gendered.
