That’s what they are. 🤷‍♂️ Not everything in the puzzle world can be a whizzbang. 🙃

I think my favourite of this type of entry is ALFS and its clue Landon and an extraterrestrial. It even has an internal rhyme!

In the 90’s I starred as an awkward little queer girl who saw an episode of All American Girl being taped at Universal Studios 😂.

If you haven’t checked out the story of Hazel McCallion, check it out. Founders of the PWHL and many high-profile players including Captain Clutch credit her with women’s hockey being recognized on a world stage. Plus, Hurricane Hazel is simply an amazing, inspiring person.

That’s a very fair assessment, Evan. Just so true.

My experience with Pete Buttigieg as a political figure is that he leads by example. If he can be set an example, and reach out to someone around Trump, maybe he’ll somehow break through. We both know he won’t break through, but Pete’s going to be persistent in trying. My two cents on this. FWIW

From a constructing standpoint, it’s amazing: YETIS (without a forced clue), UTAHYETI, & UTAHYETIS. As an NHL fan, Utah Yeti just sounds and looks so perfect. Plus, it adds to the list of absurd Utah team names. I’m looking at you, Utah Jazz!

Listen to the audiobook read by none other than the incomparable Meryl Streep.

I’ve had Love Is a Wonderful Thing in my head for the last day or so since my friend Rhea sent me the mashup/medley.

It’s a cutesy name for a hoo-hoo. I think it’s worth it. 😊

A Lien is a terrific short film about ICE and the bureaucratic nightmare of applying for a green card. It’s on Vimeo.
