This frabjous feast is featureless.
The General trusts you’ll recall previous recommendations.
Dave is @skirwingle on Bluesky, etc. His most recent puzzles are here and here.
Void has moved servers on Mastodon, and is now on Vivaldi. He’ll shortly be bridged to Bluesky which you can easily do too, in either direction. His latest blog puzzle is a Quartet, but he points you at Prak’s question too.

SPOILERS and links below the pic…
– More Tolkien, and a Nameless One.
– Charley says, “did you ever? The Last Time I Saw Richard wasn’t in the film set in France“.
– Merely a metaphorical jaunt to Mesopotamia.
– It’s also a painting, and here’s the poem, but the original is here.
– Here’s where Tom got it:
– Here’s a story of an astronomer, which is sure to go down a storm.
– It’d be quite understandable if you got your Lycaons confused.
– The cover shown here doesn’t use that typeface, disappointingly.
– Void apologises for not remembering Eilmer’s name. You can read about him, and watch a short film on his escapade(s?) here.
– Robert A may have popularised it, but Crane’s Law dates back at least to the 30s.
– Where’s Waldo? It’s usually on the front.
– Probably not the Little Donkey in the song.
– Unfortunately, there seems to be no wiki page for this Marilyn.
– “This slogan is not a formal commitment, and in fact the USPS may delay mail during bad weather.” Nits!
– If it‘s in Wiktionary, does that make it a real job title? Perhaps James would know.
– Either way, probably best not to get into a row about it with the personified place. He might turn you into a butterfly or something.
– And speaking of places, Dysania sounds like one, but isn’t.
– Sets, and an airscape, should you care to look.
– Perhaps you should draw your own conclusions about what’s “reasonable”?
The ideal soundtrack for regarding fantastic coloured flowers and trees would be a large helping of The Trudy, who you can also find on their Bandcamp.
Off-Grid podcast is RSS-ed into all corners of the internet, such as Acast, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, and many more, or in any podcatcher that you care to copy and paste the RSS feed URL into:
https://feeds.acast.com/public/shows/off-grid
Likes and Boosts are lovely, ta, but even better is if you make a post yourself saying a few words about the pod, with the tag #OffGridPod freely pasted in. That’d really help us to spread the word. As, of course, would a review on Apple Podcasts, which is the BEST thing you can do to help us out, if you should feel so inclined, thanks (again). Any ratings and mentions and all that malarkey are all most welcome too. Cheers!
