36. Offline puzzelen

Weer een Strook met iets wat ik heb gelezen, geluisterd en ~~getekend~~ gebouwd.

Woorden van 5 letters raden is mijn favoriete puzzelbezigheid. Het kan bij NYTimes (Wordle 1 ), Volkskrant (Het Woord) en NRC (Vorto). Het nadeel is dat ik mijn telefoon nodig heb om het woord te kunnen raden. Niet gezellig aan tafel én ik moet oppassen dat ik niet weer een uur aan het vijfletterige Trump besteed.

Ruben’s Quotes

“It’s my firm conviction, now more than ever, that the degree to which we are able and willing to struggle for ownership of our attention is the degree to which we are free.”
