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.

I got lucky at blue, I knew the category but not all the components. Guessed correctly for once.

I'd add that I find that often words in the purple group just don't seem to fit the general set of words. There's an example today which I will leave till others have done the board but a couple of days ago it was 'Nicks' - there were no other words with the verb constriction so I wondered what other context I could use it in, immediately thought of Stevie Nicks, and went looking for other lead singers.

I knew what they meant once I saw the answer but it didn't readily spring to mind.

Think we've all played so:


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mame_(film)
Never heard of it. Also, the BBCode mangled the end of the link. The final ")" got dropped.
