End of the year drive is choogling along. The quick pitch is as follows: the site remains free, please enjoy the puzzles guilt-free. However, if you’ve been enjoying the work and you’ve got a couple of extra beans in your pocket, it does help with some administrative costs. Suggested donation of $20, please and thank you, through PayPal or Venmo preferred, but there’s always Zelle (to the email in the “get in touch” link coming up), checks, hell I’ll take crypto. Get in touch. Long form appeal is here.
Thanks to all who’ve been able to chip in thus far.
