ESDK posted:Wait, when you said you were not ready for hintless Strands did you mean "Strands without earning hints"? Because finding non-theme words and earning hints is not a demerit or anything. Only using hints make your epeen shrink. Strands #586 “I'm a ladle hungry” 🔵🔵🔵🟡 🔵🔵🔵🔵 finally this one was tough at first cuz the last words I didn't even know which is probably the first time this has happened
