The answers to today's Strands, game #395, are DAZZLE TWINKLE SHIMMER SPARKLE GLEAM RADIATE SPANGRAM: STAR POWER My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint

The double-Z of DAZZLE set me on my way today as I ticked off these shine synonyms.

To anyone who is or was a parent the word TWINKLE will have added meaning as
a key component of a nursery rhyme intended to lull tiny tots to sleep and also one of the first things learned during music lessons for these reasons its equally nostalgic and irksome.

Ive always struggled with fact that light from our nearest star system takes over four years to reach us, but then if you knew me this wouldnt really surprise you, as when the clocks go forward or back Im in a state of
confusion for the rest of the week and constantly ask myself yes, but what time is it really?

The fact that the SPARKLE Im seeing in the night sky is from 2021 hurts my brain almost as much as yesterdays Connections .
