LGBTQIA+ Inclusion

A double-post for Pride!

First up, super proud of last Tuesday's Universal Crossword, "Symbolism," which you can currently still solve on the Universal interface by clicking on the little calendar button and selecting June 22, or via .puz.  I got really excited by the theme, which is kind of an inside joke for regular crossword solvers, so I'm really happy that it could be part of #UniversalXwordPride and that people seemed to like it.

After this year's virtual ACPT, there was a fun queer crossword meet-up for puzzle people to hang out and play some games.  Welllllll, one of those games may have turned into a full-blown (meta)puzzle collab from me, David Gold, and Z---and this is Z's debut puzzle!

Quick little meta built in, feel free to brag to us here or on Twitter when you have it, and to suggest other fun themers. Happy solving and happy Pride!
