Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once.
Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.
The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.
The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times. However, the New York Times then rolled out its own Wordle Archive, available only to NYT Games subscribers.
It might feel like Wordle is getting harder, but it actually isn't any more difficult than when it first began. You can turn on Wordle's Hard Mode if you're after more of a challenge, though.

Humans have irreversibly changed the planet. These photos prove it
On the second and third floors of New York City's International Center of Photography (ICP), a collection of over 40 years worth of Edward Burtnysky 's vision of industrial, human impact on the planet will be displayed throughout the summer. It's Burtnysky's first solo, NYC institutional exhibition show in over 20 years, and is more or less—an ode to his life's work. From some of his earliest work in the 80s as a student on the upper level, to his newer, larger scaled work on the lower, each piece represents the development of human industry through a 'concerned photography' lens. 'All the work kind of pokes around into those zones of globalism and as well as the need for materials, and looking at our population growth,' Burtynysky says. 'I was born in 1955 when the world population was under 3 billion people and now we're over 8 billion. I kind of knew then that we were talking about a human population explosion.' While studying photography in 1981, Burtynsky was working in 'big industry' to put himself through school. There, he said he decided to focus on big industries like oil and cobalt mining, and define them through photography. Regardless of place or subject, he says he wanted to focus on one continuous idea— our impact on the world. The works range in location and anthropogenic effect. From large, aerial views of chain restaurants and gas companies on the outskirts of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to up-close portraits of recycling workers in China, Burtynsky's work is meant to feel human and appear visually cinematic. According to David Campany, ICP's creative director and curator of the show, these photos are not the kind meant to be viewed on a smartphone. 'I think when you go to the cinema, you're part of a slightly more collective consciousness, and I think it's the same when people stand and look at big images,' Campany says. The larger scale allows the viewer to get lost in the details within the bigger picture, like being able to look at dusty orange landscapes with sleek lines—but backing up and realizing it's a commercial road in the middle of the desert. The show brings together around 70 images of Burtynsky's work, and create a 'survey of the last 45 years' of environmental impact. In turn, it makes people look closely at the negative human effect and how each image is interconnected to the larger idea. 'You might look at that picture of a mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo in Central Africa and think that's got nothing to do with me, but 70% of the world's cobalt currently comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo,' Campany says. 'And when you put your hand in your pocket [and feel for your smartphone ], you've suddenly got a very intimate connection with that image on the wall.' Although there's no specific method or direction to view or engage with the work, each piece is generally meant to hold 'equal value' when it comes to lighting and subject matter importance. Burtynsky refers to this as the 'democratic distribution of light and space.' For him, it allows the viewer to 'fall into the surface' of the image itself. 'In 1981, which was my student work, I was looking at our relationship with nature containing nature, controlling nature, greenhouses,and large industrial farms,' Burtynsky says. 'Even back then, I realized farming was our biggest impact in the planet, and it's kind of makes sense to have a farming as a central image for the exhibition.' Despite the works spanning decades of his travels and anthropogenic view, they are all embedded with what he says is a sense of aesthetic, wonder, and impact. 'Shipbreaking work was some of the most incredible locations I've ever photographed and experienced,' Burtynsky says. 'It still stands as one of the most crazy experiences of my life. The pictures that came out of that were sort of wild, and [the one you see when] you come out of the elevator where you see all the men—it's like being greeted by the other world that deals with our shit.' In addition to Burtynsky's show, ICP is also showing Panjereh, meaning 'window' in Farsi, from Iranian-American artist Sheida Soleimani. The exhibition emphasizes her Ghostwriter series, where she 'explores her parents' experiences of political exile and migration' through layered, magically surreal pieces. Both exhibits can be viewed simultaneously at the ICP. from June 19 until September 28.

A Case for Never Talking About Work With Non-Work Friends
My best mate and I met a decade or so ago, back when we both worked at a vintage store on Camden High Street. I liked her dark, incredibly quick sense of humor and she liked…well, you'd have to ask her. We very swiftly bonded—between tagging men's brogues and color-blocking old band T-shirts and being hungover—and have been firm friends ever since. Rarely a day goes by without one of us sending the other a no-context TikTok, or reminding the other of something deranged we did over the weekend. Despite this—despite our history and friendship and closeness—you will not catch us talking about work, ever. I'm not even entirely sure that we know what the other one does in the daytime. We both send emails, and we both have colleagues, but beyond that? Not a clue. And this isn't a one-sided thing, either. She knows what I do for a living, but she has no idea what it entails because we simply don't bring it up. We have other pressing matters to discuss, such as who's sleeping with whom, who we're rooting for on The Ultimatum: Queer Love, and who we think has broken up with their long-time partner based on the tone and frequency of their Instagram Stories. The above was never an intentional facet of our friendship—we didn't agree to not talk about work. It's more that when we get together, work just doesn't come up beyond a cursory mention. I've had five different jobs since we left that vintage store, and she's worked her way to the top at a well-known clothing brand, but that's all we need to know. I'd like to keep it that way: When you spend five days a week in an intense work zone, there needs to be some escapism and variety. It's important to be around someone who can't even envision you logging into Slack. Who can't even conceptualize the version of you that replies to emails with 'Regards.' In Sex and the City, the girls spoke about their dating lives over brunch, not the minutiae of what was said and done in the office. I've experienced the flip-side, of course, and I do think that there are certain merits to having friends who work within the same industry. Having a friend who knows what you're talking about in a work capacity can be helpful, and if you're experiencing career woes or roadblocks, it can be refreshing to hash them over with someone objective but also knowledgeable. Even so, I'm a big proponent of leaving work stuff at the work gates. We're all hurtling towards death, every second of each day; wouldn't you rather spend your evenings and weekends debating who's the fittest in the pub garden as opposed to what Janet from accounts said by the water cooler? I can also guarantee that your work life isn't as interesting to your mates as it is to you, so it's never a bad thing to minimize work chat.
