An excellent piece by @DrBalch Wildfires were once slowed by night and winter. Not anymore. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…

@DrJeanneM @beesolved @thegridkid @NYTimesWordplay And yet odd choices like tomtit are in the bee! Much more obscure than caracara, motmot, or anhinga.
English
@beesolved @thegridkid @NYTimesWordplay I have been agitating for this for ages, but there are so many SB-uncertified birds, potoo & caracara foremost!
English
Perhaps, having made its way to NYC, the ANHINGA will eventually make its way into the Bee as well! @thegridkid @NYTimesWordplay #hivemind #nytspellingbee #spellingbee #nytbee #nytsb #climatechange nytimes.com/2023/05/04/sci…

@beesolved My issue is the inconsistency with which alternate spellings are allowed - like so many things with the bee, it varies wildly.
English
I’m curious how you felt about yesterday’s puzzle, #hivemind. Thinking back to the HICCUPED/HICCUPPED pairing, did you think the inclusion of both spellings of the pangram was:
#nytspellingbee #spellingbee #nytbee #nytsb

Lots of great words in today’s 🐝 @thegridkid but what’s wrong with these two fairly common words? (I won’t even mention the weird bias against cool wild cats…).

This is such an important, underreported story, looking at the health impacts of the Marshall Fire, particularly for those whose homes are still standing. Kudos to @BoulderRL @hillaryrosner @stacyfeldmanbrl and the terrific @CU_CEJ grad students for this collaboration.

A deep dive into the health impacts of the #marshallfire by some awesome @CU_CEJ grad students, in partnership with @BoulderRL and @KUNC. Here's the print story. So proud of these stories! boulderreportinglab.org/2022/12/06/no-…

An important article. Climate change is hugely important, but it's not the only environmental crisis. “The lie is that if we address the climate crisis, we will also solve the biodiversity crisis.” #biodiversity #COP15 theintercept.com/2022/12/03/cli…

@thegridkid My vote is for an S in a puzzle with basic plurals disallowed.
English
Can we PLEASE have an S already???
I’m sorry Dipsy, I’m sorry Po, you guys didn’t deserve this
English
@thegridkid I was thinking about the S conundrum. How about including an S, BUT not allowing any simple plurals? That’s how we play boggle in my house. (Meanwhile, looking forward to K).
English
Hope the #hivemind likes the letter K!!!
Lotsa K's coming up.
You got this, k? 🐝
English
@TomtitBaobab @thegridkid @NYTimesWordplay @NYTGames I can forgive INCENT (though I tried it) but the other two should have been there. ENCEINTE is also a pet peeve of mine. And I was half-hoping for FENNEC - have you seen how cute those foxes are?! (PIKA, ANOLE, and CARACAL should come first tho).

Formally approved with a soft release on 9/26, but publicly announced last night. Thank you @LearnInHenry @HenryCountyBOE for the running head start, it was exactly what I needed. Honored to serve the HCS community.
English
@beesolved I could go with any of the bottom three, but mostly I think it’s ignorance of certain fields. (As an example, many serious birders have never heard of or use TOMTIT- it’s not nearly as common as, say, CARACARA, MOTMOT, or WILLET, none of which are allowed.)
English
I wish I could have included more than four options, but if your answer would be “Other” feel free to elaborate.
English
A poll for you, #hivemind!
The omission of <whatever> in today’s #SpellingBee is a reflection of Sam’s…
English
@beesolved Now let’s bring on caracal. And pika. And anole… (but this is a start!)
English
I know some animal buffs who are going to be very happy today. #hivemind #nytspellingbee #spellingbee #nytbee #nytsb

Sobering, disturbing, and well worth reading. washingtonpost.com/world/interact…

@1juliarosen @TheAtlantic Excellent piece, on a topic that gets far too little attention.
English
Grasslands are easy to overlook and undervalue. I've spent the last 6+ months reporting a story on why that's a terrible mistake. My latest for @TheAtlantic #longreads theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
