An intro to doing crosswords for complete beginners

as told by someone who didn’t do any before this year and now has gotten so deeply into them

with examples pulled almost entirely from crosswords published in American publications this week

A crossword is not a measure of general knowledge or intelligence or skill with words anymore than a Mario game is a measure of how good you are at plumbing. It certainly helps to have the same cultural reference points as the puzzle, but you can brute force your way through a lot of it if you just know how crosswords work

Easiest on Mondays and then get harder over the week

The answer is in the same verb tense as the clue (ex. “doesn’t float” is “SINKS” while “didn’t float” is “SANK”)

If there’s an acronym or abbreviation in the clue, the answer will have one as well (ex. “Toothpaste-approving org.” is “ADA” because that the short way of referring to the American Dental Association)

If the answer is in written like a text from a teen girl with her first flip phone, the answer will be a common texting abbreviation (TMI, OMG, LOL, LMAO, BRB, TTYL, etc) (ex. three letter word with clue “i can’t believe u told me that” is “TMI”)

If the clue is in quotes, it’s dialogue and the response should also be dialogue (ex. the clue “‘That’s it for me!’” is “IQUIT”)

An answer can be multiple words, (see above) so some correct answers can make you second guess yourself because it creates letter combos that seem impossible to be in one English (mostly) word or mess you up bc it’s ambiguous where one word ends and another begins (ex. you have the letters “OWFO” and the answer ends up being “PILLOWFORT” or “UDAT” being “BERMUDATRIANGLE”)

Treat clues with a question mark like they’re going to be puns that make you groan so think about other meanings of the words in the clue (ex. “Volumes you can hear?” is “AUDIOBOOKS” or “Not fancy at all?” is “HATE” or “Remained under cover?” is “SLEPTIN”)

Clues that add hedging language line “they could be called…” or one might use this as…” are telling you to think very laterally. These are the ones that make you a little mad when you get them (ex. “They might be said to be dancing or raging” is “FLAMES” or “They admit they might be punched” is “TICKETS”)

The word “maybe” usually indicates the answer will be an example of the clue, not a synonym (ex. “Pet, maybe” is “CAT”)

If a person is in the clue and a person is the answer, the answer will be from the same part of name as the clue (ex. Trevor Noah replaced John Stewart on the Daily Show. So the clue “Stewart’s successor on the Daily Show” is “NOAH” while “John’s successor on the Daily Show” would be “TREVOR”

No word in the clue will be featured in the answer (ex. “What Beyoncé Knowles goes by” could be “ONENAME” but could never be “BEYONCÉ”)

A answer can be a phonetic spelling of a letter (ex. “Epic finale?” is “CEE”)

Not every clue is going to be tricky and clever, don’t rule out an obvious choice just because it’s obvious (ex. “Do ___ disturb” is “NOT”)

Roman numerals pop up a lot but typically only in clues where a Roman numeral makes sense, so “finale of a play?” could be “ACTII” but “Number of Stooges” is not going to be “III”

There’s a ton of really common clues. If you do enough crossword puzzles you recognize them. (ex. Literally almost anything about oil is going to be OPEC, any variations on “things on a smartphone that someone can download and use” is going to be “APPS”, and anything about a european capital city is probably “OSLO”)

If a clue can be about a cookie, the answer is almost certainly “OREO”

But when it is very dark and very mysterious and very warm one can say onename and really mean another . . . a much more fundamental and psychically significant name . . .

At The Mentioning Of One Name

Welcome to week 2 of the new year. We thank God for blessing us with yet another day to be alive. I hope your year is coming along well by far. If not, I hope that things get better for you.

One Name To Rule Them All/// Caleb & Chase

@islandxmisfits

Looking at the name on his wrist, it had scars over it, obvious attempts to in some way hide it or just get rid of it completely. He hated it, why was there a dudes name on his right? Everyone else had three names, but he had one guy's name on his wrist and no explanation for which of the three things it could have meant. And it absolutely annoyed the teenager that it was just there, on display. Pulling his shirt sleeve down over it Chase went back to what he had been doing before getting distracted for what had to be the bazillionth time in his life. It was just too infuriating at this point. Maybe one day he could finally get it removed.  Whatever this thing was that was going on was stupid anyway. Looking around sleepy sea green eyes scanned over people as he walked passed them in no mood to socialize Chase was trying to avoid anyone he might know, or that would recognize him. But he was unlucky, and someone suddenly called out his name.

“Chase! Over here, come sit with us! I saved you a spot! Chaaaaaase don't ignore me! I see you ignoring me!”

Since 2011, just after Satoshi Nakamoto left the Bitcoin project for good, networks have emerged that leverage the BTC chain in some way. A variety of projects over the last nine years have found value in anchoring some sort of feature set to BTCin order to bolster the satellite’s underlying network. The following article examines when these anchor-style projects started, where they are today,…

He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea. {Micah 7:19} • My hope rests in this promise, that on that Day our sins will be looked upon no more. There shall be no more tears; no more pain. And, every heart will have found its home in the One New Man... neither Gentile nor Jew, man or woman.... He came to give us life abundant. May this be the Year we step into the fullness of what Messiah has given to us. He washed away our iniquity that we might once more find unity with Our Father. • Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. {John 17:11} #tashlikh #roshhashana #daysofawe #sacredroots #sacredtraditions #onename #onebody #onefaith #wakingeve https://www.instagram.com/p/BnkBL7UFzn_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1o83xddbfpmul
