Made two errors in Connections, but I was only off by one and never felt lost.

If the economy, Epstein, and the Iran War has people leaving MAGA, that keeps these stats high even if it's diminishing.

So what needs to be surveyed is what % of Americans identify as MAGA Republicans and non-MAGA Republicans over time, because it really feels (anecdotally) like it's decreasing.

Solving the word games at night worked out pretty damn well for you, Amy! 🥳

Melissa, you accidentally deleted your last square in your Wordle board, and it's mildly unsettling.

I forget the boxes are just characters that can get typed or deleted.

My flub in Connections was a literal misclick. D'oh!

Another good, fairly quick day of NYTimes games. If I get another 3/6 tomorrow, it'll be a turkey!

And if I get another perfect Connections for three days in a row, it'll be a double turkey!

I took a long time to make my first guess, and was close to solving purple when I fell for a misdirect. Got purple about 15 seconds after that, and the rest fell in place. (Though I had no shot at blue.)

Purple is kind of dirty, and I only got it thru process of elimination.

I also thought Blue would be a misdirect (seemed too obvious!), but it was fun so I went with it anyway.
