As the Supreme Court inches toward the end of its term in late June with fourteen cases still undecided, court-watchers are now surging toward Twitter and SCOTUSblog every Monday and Thursday morning at 10 a.m. EST in anticipation of history-making rulings on same-sex marriage, voting rights, and affirmative action in higher education. No one outside of the Court knows what and how many opinions are issued on any given day–and we did not in fact get any of the aforementioned “marquee” decisions today, which only adds to the tension for Thursday–but waiting is half the fun, right?

Here’s a roundup of today’s action in tweet form, showing our collective breath being held, held, held and then released over the span of 30 long minutes (thus freeing everyone up with time to spare for the Edward Snowden Q&A). In all, #SCOTUS handed down five opinions today, including a couple of important criminal procedure decisions and an Arizona voter registration ruling that saw Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Scalia siding with the liberal wing of the Court against the state’s proof-of-citizenship requirement. It also agreed to hear oral argument in four more cases for its next term. We begin with the one and only SCOTUSblog, the definitive source for everything Court-related:

And it begins. The #scotus liveblog is up: http://t.co/36NVFe4Qhq

#SCOTUS grants cert for Mt. Holly case. Must plaintiffs prove intentional racial housing discrimination to win a Fair Housing Act case?

SCOTUS grants review in Mount Holly fair housing case. Looks like the Roberts Court is intent on gutting disparate impact analysis.

The Salinas case is actually a reasonably important 5th Amendment case.

When the Chief annd that Kennedy would have the next opn, there was a collective "Here we go on Fisher." Alas, drivers' licenses. #SCOTUS

#SCOTUS last opn of day looks like a 7-2 ruling that Arizona cannot check IDs to register to vote. Preempted by federal law

Scalia saying a state can't do something is much bigger news than the right/left politics of the issue.

— Elie Mystal (@ElieNYC) June 17, 2013

Important win in Arizona voting case, & a surprise from Scalia, since he seemed hostile in argument. But he did leave open future challenge
