I see the NYT Tech Guild went on strike, so this might be a good time for me to post links to my list of daily puzzle pages, so folks have something to do in the absence of their crossword and/or that thing with the bees:

Cell Tower: a grid already filled in with letters; you figure out what the words are.
Toddle: Puzzle starts out looking like "Big vehicle: SEMI" which means that you're looking for a big vehicle like a dieSEl locoMotIve (but that's not the answer today, I just checked)
Puzzmo: home of my favorite daily crossword and many many other puzzles which aren't my cup of tea but might be yours. Has leaderboards, so I can see that Tyler Hinman completed the crossword puzzle in ¼ my time. Keeps me humble.
Black Crossword: mini crosswords celebrating the African Diaspora, which I now know more about thanks to these puzzles, especially those parts of the African Diaspora with lots of vowels
Minute Cryptic: one cryptic crossword clue per day, about all my poor American-crossword-accustomed brain can handle

Anyhow, puzzle on and don't cross the line.
