  1. It is March and the lovely #EnigMarch people have challenged puzzle designers to write a puzzle inspired by today's word: "together".

    Oh no! The USA clown President Trump got so mad at his vice president for refusing to overturn the results of a lawful election that he incited an insurrection and called upon his followers to punish his vice president! And those followers set up a gallows with a noose and chanted that they wanted to hang the vice president! And then a few years later, some politician thought "Nevertheless, I want to be that clown's next vice president." I think about that sometimes. I thought about it more since they got elected.

    Anyhow, if you enjoy cryptic crosswords, I hope you like this one. crosshare.org/crosswords/bwJfW It includes some two-letter entries to anger the purists.

  2. Day 16 of #EnigMarch is "Out" so I utilized skills tutorialized to me by @passerine and constructed a dropquote. At the tennis courts. rcveeder.net/enigmarch26/puzzl

  3. Day 4 of #EnigMarch was "Hint" and I took a whole week to write a whole text adventure called "Stooping to Diplomacy" where you play as a mean, evil, selfish, sexy, ill-tempered vampire. And it's kind of a tutorial for solving cryptic crossword clues. rcveeder.net/enigmarch26/puzzl

  4. We're about 1/6 of the way through #EnigMarch! Now to see if anyone gets what I was going for with today's #cryptic clue for PATH:

    Path resulting from attempt to carry a projector without support (10)

  5. #EnigMarch season is on! The prompt for March 1 is SEASON. Good luck, everyone!!

  6. It's not #EnigMarch but I'm making puzzles for Advent! rcveeder.net/advent25/ Have fun solving a puzzle, you old building and loan!

  7. One more week to go! The #EnigMarch prompt for March 25 is RANDOM.

  8. It is March and the lovely @enigmarch people have challenged puzzle designers to write a puzzle inspired by today's word: "combine", as in "consolidate."

    Oh no! The USA clown President Trump (egged on by his buffoonish adviser Elon Musk) wants to consolidate federal procurement for goods and services used by many departments. Why is he doing this? I have a theory, but he says it's for the taxpaer. Yes, the taxpaer. (H/t to Elizabeth Aer^H^H^H Ayer for spotting this.)

    On the one hand, we have the DOGE hyenas promising to streamline government by harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence. On the other hand, we see they haven't yet learned to harness the power of looking for the wiggly red line under a typo. Bad news: Clowns armed with hatchets prowl the halls of government. Good news: At least I know what puzzle I can write today.

    Can you figure out what letter is missing from each hypothetical WhiteHouse dot gov headline blow? Rite them in the banks provided on the eft. We already filled in the K missing from One Monkey Don't Stop no Show. Hen you ill in the others, you should see my theory on hat Trump hoes to consolidate ere.
