A tough Thursday that makes me feel like I’m getting better at crosswords. This would have sunk me a year ago. 71 day streak stays alive

Hey UK friends is it LOO or LAV?

I realize the crossword has a built-in difficulty sequence throughout the week, but after seeing NYT rank the difficulty on Connections I’d be curious to see something similar for crosswords. Maybe I was off today, but felt like a trickier Tuesday. A 4/5 difficulty, if you will!

I’ll just say every time I go to look at hints, 9/10 times they’re the clues I have answers to. Meanwhile, I’m over here trying to think of a game with a 32 card deck only to find it’s something I’ve never heard of in my life

A real Tuesday of a Monday with this theme

A Monday that felt closer to a Tuesday is always welcome

Why are the tricky clues always the ones I get, meanwhile I have no idea who Bacchus is and why they’re celebrated. Fun Thursday!

I was starting to wonder is real estate shared an acronym with BDSM as I had EXIST. For the best for a lot of realtors out there

For all the people complaining about easy puzzles the Tuesday 1/6 puzzle was the hardest Tuesday ever. This was the most Tuesday, Tuesday ever. Some slight misdirection with vocabulary expansion.

I always truly enjoy a Thursday where I can complete the puzzle and then read the column to understand the theme
