For one vertiginous moment I was terrified that W would be a P.

The answers to 2-Down and 3-Down did not help.

apparently one of the guests at my best friend's wedding this summer liked the wedding crossword i wrote enough that she would now like to commission me to write one for her wedding. we don't even know each other so i don't know if this is going to go very well lol. how do i write a crossword for someone i don't know? should we just start hanging out??? the wedding's not till march so we have some time to become besties i guess. would love to be like "yes my commission rates are you take me out to dinner as many times as it takes for me to understand you and your partner as people and as a couple. but it doesn't have to be anywhere fancy. mostly you will be paying me with Intimacy." yes. great idea. what could go wrong

I Could Not Tell

Sharon Olds

I could not tell I had jumped off that bus, that bus in motion, with my child in my arms, because I did not know it. I believed my own story: I had fallen, or the bus had started up when I had one foot in the air.

I would not remember the tightening of my jaw, the irk that I’d missed my stop, the step out into the air, the clear child gazing about her in the air as I plunged to one knee on the street, scraped it, twisted it, the bus skidding to a stop, the driver jumping out, my daughter laughing Do it again.

I have never done it again, I have been very careful. I have kept an eye on that nice young mother who lightly leapt off the moving vehicle onto the stopped street, her life in her hands, her life’s life in her hands.

from Satan Says, 1980.

99D: School name that sounds like a Canadian territory (5)

hello to all gamers, and happy sunday. today we have a classic sunday theme of several bad puns! i thought the theme was a good concept and the fill decent, but there was a bit of a disconnect for me mentally. maybe i just couldn't focus in enough for whatever reason, but it felt like i understood the gist but just didn't click well. looking back at the filled grid, the long theme entries are very lovely, so I'm giving a couple nuggets of points back in retrospect.

the SW, NE, and central areas were slow for me - the center due to a handful of trivia clues i had to look up, and the two corners due to taking a while for INCENTIVE and ALLEGORIC to click in my head. words just weren't coming to me today. enjoyed the queer cross in the NW of BI FLAG, GAYDAR, and AREOLAE (okay not really queer but i'll pretend it is).

Answers to noted clues:

69A: LEWIS F. Powell jr

80A: the LLANO grassland

34D: Director IDA Lupino

58A: ARLISS (stylized Arli$)

1A: BI FLAG

108A: CAST

4D: GAYDAR could have used a ?

54D: LOAN SHARK clue contender

99D: U CONN

Your book is in the New York crossword puzzle today (Monday, July 10)!! (No pics because I don’t wanna spoil anymore answers if you do the crossword). I’m sure you’ve been in the crossword before but it’s got to be such a cool experience.

Hope you are having a good one. DFTBA.

It is a very cool experience. Whenever one of those clues comes up, I feel bad for the 97% of Americans who haven't read The _____ in Our Stars, but I also feel happy for me, because it's one NYT crossword clue I can answer with reasonable certainty.

I was doing the NYT crossword and @samreich’s dad was one of the clues which is cool in itself but the funny thing was that the next clue was Ayn Rand??? I didn’t realize a crossword could give you whiplash.

It's Time to Stop Reading the New York Times.

TW: Antisemitism, transphobia.

§ Today, the first day of Hanukkah, the New York times published a crossword that looks like a swastika. The first clue, for 1 Across, was "I'm in heaven!"

This has happened twice in the past.

In 2014, the NYT Crossword official iPhone app published a Mini puzzle that looked like a swastika. The first clue (for 1 Down) had the 3-letter answer of JEW. The NYT completely hand-waved the accusation.

In 2017, on October 28th - a Saturday, which is Shabbat for Jewish people - another puzzle resembling a swastika was published. NYT's response was unprofessional, to say the least.

This is what editors are for. This has happened three times. The New York Times should be able to identify a swastika, especially with the recent increase in antisemitic rhetoric and violence. This was not an accident.

§ NYT has also been publishing transphobic talking points recently. Last month during Transgender Awareness Week, they published a fearmongering article about puberty blockers titled "They Paused Puberty, but Is There a Cost?" Puberty blockers have been safely used on children with precocious puberty for 30 years, and current research supports their use to delay puberty for transgender children.

The NYT website also includes a rundown of transgender issues phrased in ways that suggest anti-trans bias. "Concerns are growing," "Data is sparse. Some state leaders..." and the anti-trans talking point about an epidemic of trans youth. They also chose to frame right-wing intimidation and terror threats at drag shows as "Rising Fears Over Drag Shows" and a part of the "gender debate."

The New York Times is at least incompetent and at worst is slipping into far-right fascism. It's time to find new sources.

I was persuaded into explaining what the omegaverse is to my boyfriend a few weeks back, tell me why we were just doing a crossword with the clue ‘one might be slippery’ and his IMMEDIATE response was to blurt out “an omega!”, thank you nyt for your crossword clues
