June 1 has a whole new selection ofConnectionsfor us to work through and we barely scrapped by a win in today’s game. There were just too many categories that we weren’t super-familiar with which sent us on a few unintentional time-wasters. We were able to pull off the win just before running out of attempts though. Sometimes, those really difficult wins can be the best.

In this game, you’ll be solving four differentWordlepuzzles at the same time which can quickly become a brain-burner.

Today’s Connections Category Hints
June 1 #355
Before spoiling today’sConnectionsanswers, we wanted to provide the categories for those who just need a little extra push in the right direction. The categories are grouped below in order from top to bottom, or straightforward to tricky as the game refers to them.
“DON’T DELAY!”
PRONTO
STAT
I think our decision to be a little too fast in today’s game was what led us to the failures we endured. Trying to score the categories without really stopping to think about if they make sense is a quick way to lose the game. We scored yellow in second place today after a few missteps. PRONTO and HURRY were the obvious starter words, and the others weren’t far behind.
TIDE
WAVE
We scored the green category in first place today, but not after wasting a few attempts on some misguided choices. TIDE and WAVE were the two words that fixed our brains and set us on the path to victory.

PRESS
ROW
With only eight words left you’d think it would be an easy win, but we really did struggle with today’s game. I suppose it would be our lack of knowledge in the world of philosophers, because we definitely know all about working out and exercises. We’re so ripped bro, you can’t even begin to shred the numbers we be lifting. GAINS!
PANE
RUSTLE
This category went completely over our heads. Homophones are tough on their own, but couple that with philosopher names and we are at a loss. I have a theater degree, it’s useless for most things. However, it was fun to learn about these historical “guessers” after the category was revealed.
LOCK
John Locke
Locke is best known as an influencer of limited government. His theories would argue that governments have obligations to their citizens and should only have a limited power over them.
MARKS
Karl Marx
Marx often published detailed critiques of the capitalist system. He felt that the capitalistic system would inevitably destroy itself, and if you’ve recently been to a McDonalds, it’s hard to disagree. Can we get the Dollar Menu back, please?
Thomas Paine
This one might be a stretch, but I couldn’t find any other philosopher that worked with the word PANE. Thomas Paine was more of a political theorist and a journalist, but he does fit the criteria.
Bertrand Russell
Russell is probably the most interesting guy in this line-up. He dealt mostly with idealism and metaphysics.The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophysays “Idealism is broadly understood as the contention that ultimate reality is immaterial or dependent on mind, so that matter is in some sense derivative, emergent, and at best conditionally real.” Mind-blowing!
