In 2022 I launched Anigrams, and in 2024 Order Up. Building/running my own daily puzzles has been one of the great creative joys of my life. As of today, both games are now paused. I can't say more yet, but stay tuned for an exciting update. Excited to share what's next :)

solve the puzzle that made Wordplay columnist Sam Corbin say- "How much wordplay can one person take? A lot, in this puzzle’s estimation."

I just wish the intersection of media and technology had protected bike lanes

@lorenmtaylor enforcement is part of it but you should also consider road design. stuff like chicanes and protected bike lanes can narrow roads and prevent / discourage dangerous driving in the first place

This past weekend I witnessed the aftermath of a deadly crash here on International Blvd, a tragic reminder that lives are on the line when we don’t enforce traffic safety. These accidents are preventable. As mayor, I’ll make it a top priority to ensure our streets are safe, our laws are enforced, and every Oaklander can move through our city without fear. We’re 7 days from Election Day. Let’s make change happen. #Tminus7Days

back in the times today with a little something something

@aaaronson @gpaolopasco 3rd??? is there an aadam aaaronson??

Went into #ACPT2025 with the sole goal of finishing all the puzzles error-free, so in that sense I won. Placed 3rd alphabetically (my worst yet) and 36th by score (my best yet). So proud to witness @gpaolopasco pull off the back-to-back championship!
