Puzzle Notes

Dear Friends:

Today's AVCX+ is a themeless crossword by the great Rachel Fabi, titled "[eyes emoji]" (yes, that emoji -- the one we're avoiding here out of concern that it'll break some email delivery system somewhere). We're calling this puzzle 1/5 on our made-up difficulty scale, meaning this is as easy as our themelesses will probably get... but not necessarily that it's the easiest puzzle you'll ever solve anywhere. It also means this is a great one to share with a friend or loved one who hasn't yet dipped their toes into themelessy goodness!

Rachel Fabi is a queer constructor, streamer, and writer-abouter of crossword puzzles from Syracuse, NY. You can find her puzzles on Just Gridding!, her streams on Twitch, and her writing at the New York Times Wordplay column.

Cheers,

Ada, Max, Chris, Quiara, Sid & the expanded AVCX crew
