Have you ever had those days when you just can’t get along with Strands and can’t see any words?
I had one of those days today, I needed a clue to get going and a lot of effort to finally complete the quest. Often when this is the case it’s because I don’t understand the topic, but that wasn’t the case here, especially after I got OPEN and BAD. In short, everything was far from OBVIOUS.
Maybe my late night binge watching Pluribus It has something to do with that. Frankly, I could use a hive mind.
