After placing the AR, I could only come up with CHARM, CHART, and WHARF. That should have guaranteed me a win, if those were the only three options. But given the very real possibility that I was missing something, I decided to play it safe at four. No harm, no foul.

FUNGI → About what I expected. Means I can go with an “ideal” “first word” guess…
STARE → OK, if there’s a consonant cluster to start, CH is likely… so CHARO? No,

Easy puzzle, yet oddly satisfying. It’s like there was just enough challenge to break a mental sweat.

Awesome! Please send some of that skill my way.

This didn’t seem like it should have been a six. It wasn’t hard at all. I see now that I messed up on guess five. I thought I had two guesses left but one should have already been eliminated.That’s what happens when you go too fast. Didn’t break my streak at least.

Wordle 441 5/6, and glad to escape with a 5.

SLANT => got me the L but no location
CHORE => a total blank
DUMPY => got the U and Y in position. Could be BULLY, BULKY, FULLY, GULLY, BULGY.
BULKY => ok, now down to FULLY and GULLY.
GULLY => Guessed right.
