Puzzle Notes

Dear Friends:

We've got a 70-word themeless for you today from the superconstructor duo of Kate Chin Park and Rafael Musa. It's titled "Cats Are Perfect" and it's a little tricky, but rewarding, like earning a cat's trust.

Kate lives with her cat Ludo, who is behaviorally flawed but aesthetically perfect. She (Kate, not Ludo) is an organizer of the Westwords crossword tournament, which will take place in Berkeley, CA and online on June 22. Registration is open now! Rafa lives with his cat Georgia. He thinks she is perfect.

In case you missed it in the Classic newsletter, here's another plug for an upcoming puzzle pack titled "A Trans Person Made Your Puzzle". The pack, started by AVCX+'s own Ada Nicolle in support of U.S.-based transgender charities, releases June 2025. You can sign up to receive updates at the link (and if you're a trans and/or nonbinary constructor, you can submit a puzzle, too).

Be well -- and see you at the ACPT this weekend, if you're there!
