Anyone playing “Strands”?

Wasn't sure how they were going to mangle the clue. For the record- whore is not on the NYT approved word list. 

In reply to Mndsm :

Neither is "twat" or "nazi"

In reply to Mr_Asa :

Agreed, the theme related words were easier to pick out. 

Seemed easy to guess the theme.

Two notes. No one actually knows how to spell the B word. I had to google it and I still berkeleyed it up like 5 times. 

Axe, rope, and tarp are not part of this strand group.

Finally managed to get one that I didn't have to get hints for every other word.  Tomorrow will be terrible.

In reply to No Time :

Today's went fairly quickly. No misdirects, normal words, I'm still looking at the spanagram slightly askew, but I'll allow it.

Makes me wonder if the NYT folks got a new supplier over the weekend

Finally. One that made sense.

Can't nobody spell that word. 

Another one where the hint was NOT what I initially thought.

Had to look up spelling of the spangram.  Agreed on the theme being super obscure at first.

Today's was easy.  Too easy.  They are building towards a hard one, gotta be

Easy. A little... too easy. Only quasi tough one was the theme word because it could have had several endings, and I couldn't tell until I'd filled in more of the grid.

Strands #74
“Tasty!”

Last word was P, which I didn't know was a word.  

Too easy:
