Thanks for this submission! Taylor and I appreciate the visual of the black squares cutting the "slack" synonyms, though we wish the words felt even more disguised: "ten" in TENDENCY is a nice find, though "take" in INTAKE feels a bit less concealed. All in all, we're unfortunately going to pass, but we hope to see more from you soon!
