I lost my #squareword streak on a trip and got it back; this may help other #WQuers
I played on laptop on trip, signed in w/ same account as on home desktop. When back home, games were kept but desktop streak was reset 😠
Solution: click ⚙️ > User Account > 🔄 Full Sync on BOTH devices, reload, etc.

These things happen. I'm still fuming I lost my SqW streak somehow when I travelled to AoNZ recently! I was on a streak of 886! Didn't lose any others, just SqW. Now on a steak of 25.

Listening to the audiobook of "Culture Warlords: My Journey Into the Dark Web of White Supremacy" and I am much affected. Strong, personal writing.

Also: on audiobook vs print I'm usually Team Print but @swordsjew.bsky.social is definitely an author who adds by reading their own book.
