If you're reading this,Watch Where Sleeping Dogs Lie Online you're looking for a little help playing Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game.

Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.
