Thursday, September 24, 2026 — Another CFTA (Crossword For the Ages)!! 🎉
Description
The NYTimes crossword has its standards (as in an expectation of excellence: no dreck allowed) and its standards (rules/conventions that must be followed). We are pleased to announce that its standards (former) remain as high as ever, and that its standards (latter) have been temporarily set aside, resulting in the glorious puzzle that it is our privilege to discuss today.
Years from now, we predict that people will be able to recall the exact couch/sofa/recliner/chair they were sitting in when they tackled this crossword: yes, it's that good. Deets inside.
Show note imagery: Yum, our favorite pizza!
