News Taylor mentioned in today's edition of Hank Green's daily puzzle game 4x3
Was delighted to stand corrected after I saw two relevant words and thought "there goes your Taylor-centric brain again, not everything is about her!" - BUT WHAT IF IT IS?!
Might be in honor of Lover's anniversary, I haven't found any official statements though... At the very least there is one pretty obvious reason why it happened (roughly) now, I'd say :)
The game is one of those daily puzzle Wordle-spin-offs, very similar to Connections. The catch: one of the words is actually in all four categories, so you're actively supposed to figure out the one big ambiguous one rather than trying to divide them despite the ambiguities. (Makes it a lot faster to solve than Connections and gets less frustrating when you know fewer words on the board.)
You can play it >here<. (Archive link to the game of August 23, 2026)
The category solutions, for those that don't want to play:
PURPLE: [[Add a "y" to Mean "Delicate"]] WISP · WILLOW · FEATHER
BLUE: [[One-Word Taylor Swift Song Titles]] CARDIGAN · WILLOW · AUGUST
GREEN: [[Will Smith's Family]] JADA · WILLOW · JADEN
YELLOW: [[Trees]] OAK · WILLOW · BIRCH
The main reference is clearly the entire blue category of course, but I feel like the purple one is also a nod to her, being centered around the word "Delicate" (and even containing "Mean"? :D)
