Welp, it finally happened: I lost my undefeated Wordle streak. Until today, I’d skipped a day or two but never actually lost. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Now I don’t have to stress on the mornings I get to a fifth guess!

@JordanKalish I was so proud of Rob and Stephen for also making this joke on Know-It-Alls. Go RHAP!

@ShannonGaitz Energy follows attention. I’m begging everyone who loves Cerie to believe in a happy ending for once! (I can actually picture a world where Ozzy brings her to the final three. Or maybe she crushes fire-making this time!)

@lxeagle17 You are embarrassing yourself. Kat Abughazaleh was on the front lines for weeks protesting ICE at a detention center, which is very much the antithesis of being Very Online. (Also, FWIW, she declared her candidacy before Jan Schakowsky retired, unlike Daniel Biss.)

@iameMQue @SurvivorQuotesX @thatdorrk Honestly Shii-Ann was in the top echelon of my dream cast for Survivor 50. It's a crime we've never seen her back!

@DIGWOMANNN @DaltonRoss Charlie does a great knuckle-crack.

[Web Behrens @WebBehrens]

@stephenfishbach FINALLY

(I love you, Stephen. Always have, always will ... but last week's Fishy call was gobsmackingly shortsighted. Thankfully RHAP has @ShannonGaitz to keep everyone on track with strategy breakdowns.)

@SketchesbyBoze I love riding the CTA with a book.

[Web Behrens @WebBehrens]

@places_times @StarToomeyy OMG — Muppets Frog Prince GIF ?!! 👏 👏 👏

[Web Behrens @WebBehrens]

@RedmondSurvivor Bummer — I love reading your analyses. Understandable, though.

Don’t anybody spoil season 50!

Wintrust Bank scandal reminds me of when I used AI to create a cartoon of Ald. Moore's "Backbiting snake!" tantrum. I rightly got an earful from readers, and promised not to use AI for SBC images again!

As always, Susan Collins counted votes and decided she could vote no and the bill would still pass, thus saving her golden seat in the Senate. She and Murkowski seem to have a pact--whose turn is it to vote no this time?

@LeighGiangreco Not defending the CTA’s poor overall performance, especially during rush hours. But I have definitely waited much longer than that for nighttime trains in New York, Berlin, and Paris.

A new MCA exhibition reconsiders generations of local queer art — and the activism that inspired it. https://t.co/o6PtOTQOFb

[Web Behrens @WebBehrens]

Don’t miss this amazing exhibition!

Chicago is the only city to host "The First Homosexuals," an extensive collection of queer art. https://t.co/jdpE7wxifs

@SurvivorSpclsts I think Shauhin’s edit is pretty good. Think about how he helped drive the David blindside — we got a great confessional plus a flashback segment (!) about how he spent days subtly laying the groundwork for that move.

[Web Behrens @WebBehrens]

@RedmondSurvivor Thank you for this post. I was just checking Inside Survivor yesterday. When do they head out to film — June? Cause I’m marking my calendar!

"It fits the moment, both for Lookingglass as a company, and also for our community and society as a whole. Deep down, it’s a story about wanting to be somebody else, dreaming about being somebody better." https://t.co/us3yqjapFs

@missravenaaa Ohh, she surpassed Dan easily in last night's episode.
