An easy start with a tricky finish. I prefer the ones that are a bit challenging, yesterdays felt too easy.

Failure today, really should have got Green

A nice and clear one today, I thought (unlike a couple of more spurious recent puzzles)

My thanks/curses/delete as appropriate/etc to the poster who recommended the other NYT connections game. What with Wordle, Symble, Actorle, Framed, the two geography ones, two of the maths ones and now that, it takes me about 40 minutes to get out of bed in the morning 😉

I knew the topics I just didn't know all the words that related 🤦🏼‍♀️

I'd never have guessed the purple

I really liked the Purple one, it was the 4th Green that had me scratching my head for a while. My son, on the other hand, thought Purple was a right bastard today.

I like it when they are from wildly diverse sources, and I’m dredging up secondary school subjects and world events, for example.

I forgot to post earlier. I won't learn, my brain needs to wake up before I attempt it! I could see the theme for blue but my brain just wouldn't!

I fucked up todays, got purple in one go and then couldn’t see any of the rest so just pressed random ones to get the answers - probably wouldn’t have guessed with 10 more goes!

Tricky today. I had to resort to the dictionary at one point. Is that cheating?

Good job the last group falls into place
