Can't please everybody!

My least favorite genre of crossword complaint is when a [you can guess their demographic] solver finds a clue that was not in their wheelhouse and decides it's therefore a poor clue. Different clues are written to bring different people joy, my guy!

I did a journalism on crosswords. Thank you to @defector.bsky.social for having me.

Me: hope to see a Sonny photo as the header photo. **Monkey paw curls** Also tickled to see the one or two people getting bothered about 8-Down. Challenging you to learn about an absolute baller on a website that prides itself on remembering guys! If you can learn Antetokounmpo, you can do this!

Thanks to @giltcomplex.bsky.social for screenshotting this for me, an iPhone less person. Jess and I made the first attempt of this puzzle's theme four years ago and it didn't quite work, so very happy that this new completely different version found its way out into the world.
