I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

Why are the yellow squares showing as orange here. but not on the other two places I post my results, nor on 'Connections' itself?

Kicking myself about purple. picking that one up would have made blue very much more than just a lucky guess.

I had a vague idea what the connection was, though it turned out to be somewhat more specific than I thought.

For the last three, I had no idea what the categories were, only that the words vaguely went together. Well, I actually figured out the blue once I saw them all together because a certain alternate meaning didn't come to me until then.

Don't give clues while a game is still active!

I'd never have got green - I still couldn't see the connection when they were the only four left.

I think their classification is overly specific and by its nature a bit woolly.
