    A good addition to reason.com!

    Two niggles, though:
    1) the puzzle wants to load a Facebook javascript component. Not sure why, as I blocked it, but disappointed that someone thought it had to be there.
    2) a bit too easy, maybe? Could you make them cycle from easy to hard through the course of a month (like NYT does over each week)?

Everybody must try this job now by just using this website... http://www.Payathome7.com

    Shoehorning in magic mushrooms to an easy puzzle makes this “Libertarian”? Ok

      "The libertycap mushrooms are a lie."

      You would think the magazine that's been polling Millennials and Zoomers as long and as hard as Reason has would know this.

    A little over 3 minutes, so definitely a quickie (as in other cases 😉

    This reminded me more of the NYT Mini than of the NYT Daily.

    But good to see despite its brevity. Thanks!
