I’ve been here since late morning… 7 words (including 1 pangram) short of 🐝. I found 1 pangram, but the 2nd one and the remaining words elude me… like I’ve hit a brick wall.

Currently 54 words in… been whittling away at the difference between Genius and 🐝 for a while. Still 7 words short. Interesting puzzle with the “ing”, but the “E” in the middle! May or may not keep at it…
