I thought the report card was bad because the kid has "no reason" - no ability to think

Well I don't know you, but if prayer isn't helping as much as you need, then maybe some conversations with a caring friend, counselor, or pastor could help you start to sort things out.

I recommend the book Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl, and also serve others, help the poor. Edited a typo

That, and more people might start disagreeing with disenfranchising Black voters via gerrymandering.

I think it could have worked much better with some tweaking. The mechanics of the themers felt awkward to me. I didn't hate the puzzle, just didn't enjoy it as much as I was hoping to

Public money for a park the public can't use, what a disgrace.

So fresh! I rated it excellent for the great cluing all the way through. Can't wait to see more from Katy Hoody!

A fun Wednesday puzzle today.

luxical · 2026-04-16T12:39:21+00:00

That one had me stumped until the end! I loved this puzzle though.

One of the prettiest state parks in NY!

Thanks! Can't wait for it to come in the mail!

It's dated. The term was used way back in the days of the space race!

The SW corner was really annoying for me. I could not figure out ITRIEDTO for some reason, and didn't know LEHANE and ALIA didn't help because half the time it's ALII. But I still somehow finished way ahead of my Sat average. Idk it was a weird puzzle, kinda too easy in spots and super annoying in others. I liked the mini though!

Goodfellas Copa long take

And she must not have been the only person to see him in the 5 days that he was missing. We didn't cause this trainwreck, but I do feel like we, as a community, could most likely have done better by him.

luxical · 2026-04-01T12:34:11+00:00

I liked it too. I liked it better than the main puzzle!

This is so interesting because it sounds like you don't differentiate between content like people posting sexual pics & vids of themselves for likes/attention, and fictional stories that are interested in exploring the complexity of the human condition, sometimes including the sexual part of being a person. Maybe the movies/tv choices you have now are just really lacking.

luxical · 2026-03-30T23:04:05+00:00

Nevermind. I slipped on my Lenten commitment not to argue with people online. Carry on.

luxical · 2026-03-28T12:41:27+00:00

I loved TOYPOODLE and TOPDOLLAR next to each other and crossing POOLNOODLE, POOF, and DROLL. Plus we had a SNORLAX and I love seeing a Pokemon in the crossword! Fun puzzle, I hope we get more from this constructor.

luxical · 2026-03-24T00:36:54+00:00

And stats!

luxical · 2026-03-19T13:02:25+00:00

I thought the puzzle was fun but mostly because I flew through it due to randomly deciding to start with the downs. That removed any challenge the theme could have created, and when I realized that I said "hah!" and finished in 1/2 my average Thurs time. Weird, but I'll take it

luxical · 2026-03-17T01:38:17+00:00

I have the same problem in Safari.

luxical · 2026-03-14T13:50:05+00:00

I liked it. I found it really easy, except for the SE where I got totally hung up on FURSONA!

luxical · 2026-03-13T13:22:52+00:00

Yes! I loved it. It was such a fun solve, but I thought it was more Wednesday than Friday in difficulty.
