@lexfri@hachyderm.io

I'm a consultant, podcaster, dad, word game maker, and improviser in New Jersey.

I host a daily podcast called Your Daily Lex. I have a newsletter at https://lexfriedman.com/newsletter. I also co-host The Rebound, Not Playing, and other podcasts.

I post daily word games at https://lex.games — you should play them.

I’m a full-time consultant, and perhaps your company should work with me.

Today I watched two different episodes of television during which birdhouse in your soul came on.

When you see podcast charts and Lex Fridman's Tech Sycophant Hour is in the top slots and maybe we should just hope the aliens nuke us from orbit.

With no hyperbole, Lexicogs is my favorite Lexicogs since I started offering these puzzles.

@siracusa I didn't reply to this earlier because I was busy moving most things off UserDefaults because you text-shamed me

(and more because I thought it DID persist through reinstalls/updates, but then realized it does NOT, which was NO GOOD)

My pal @dmoren is number one on the Conlextions leaderboard for number 225. Can you unseat him?

Have you played Six Appeal yet?

Yes, it’s yet another Wordle knockoff. But it’s six letters, which makes it a bit more challenging. And you don’t HAVE to guess real words, which gives it a Mastermind vibe.

I encourage you to check it out.

Is there an easy or automated way to generate Mastodon follows for Threads accounts you follow that have opted into the Threads ActivityPub beta?

Trying something a bit different with Square Dance for the next week or two. (Potential!) solutions are now loosely themed.

I introduced a new High Contrast mode for players who prefer a bit more visual contrast. The toggle, found in the footer, currently affects Six Appeal and Mind Control.

If you have contrast issues in other games, let me know!

Guys don’t tell Casey but I need to post about Conlextions here because fewer of you played it than usual today — and it’s a good one!

Play it, share it with a friend, and brag about your score!

Today’s Lexicogs will satisfy word game pundits. (See what I did there?)

Added a gameday leaderboard for subscribers. A custom formula that awards you a Lex’s Games score for the day.

https://lex.games/leaderboard

I also continue to wrestle with whether it’s Lex’s Games or if I should just call it Lex.Games. I can argue either way.
