The New York Times acquired Wordle two years ago today.

Software engineer Josh Wardle created the word game as a personal project for his partner. He created a prototype in 2013, but it was not until the pandemic in 2020 that he revisited the idea and refined the game.

Wardle was reportedly paid a figure in the range of the low seven figures for Wordle, which means at least $1 million. At the time of the sale, Wardle said, “I’d be lying if I said this hasn’t been a little overwhelming.”

An animal shelter in New Jersey is offering a unique service for Valentine’s Day this year.

For a $50 donation, they’ll name a feral cat after your ex, then neuter it.

They’ll also spay female cats. But the real appeal is getting to name a cat after a guy you hate.

The flyer they posted online says, “Neuter Your Ex for Valentine’s Day” . . . “because some things shouldn’t breed.”
