this is a shame for so many reasons, not least of which is the purging of this puzzle from the internet 💔💔💔 (ty @giltcomplex for empowering me in crosswords as in all things)
Dear puzzlers: We’ve made the tough decision to sunset The Modern Crossword. You can solve the final puzzle Sunday, October 20. Thank you for your support! Don’t worry—seven other crossword puzzles are still available daily: https://t.co/zteb3Uq2E1
