In #solidarity with @NYTimesGuild, my 488-day NYT crossword streak will end tomorrow!
We’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Make something from a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

I wonder how the people who stay and fight can ever forgive those who flee to safety. (This thought brought to me by “We’re Here”)
