I think today’s threads relate to words that exist in the United States Constitution, but I have to admit that I am not an expert in this regard, given that I am based in the UK. What I know is that the words here represent a selection of human rights that we often take for granted, but which are constantly worth reminding ourselves – especially if we feel they are threatened.
As far as my gameplay went, I saw the two shortest words first before the tension confirmed the theme and opened the board.
Unlike most days, I hardly had to pour my head sideways to find out the gaming words and had unusual had to go in search of non-playing tips after finishing the board.
