This image delves into the fascinating history of the first-ever modern crossword puzzle, published on December 21, 1913, in the New York World newspaper. Created by Arthur Wynne, an England-born journalist, this revolutionary puzzle appeared in the Sunday Fun section, captivating readers and introducing what would become a beloved global pastime. The featured puzzle, displayed at the center of the image, is diamond-shaped with a hollow center. The word “FUN” is prominently filled in, showcasing Wynne’s innovative style that introduced horizontal and vertical word arrangements. This format included numbered boxes and black squares to separate words, creating a logical and structured approach that remains the foundation of modern crossword puzzles. The image further details the puzzle’s evolution, noting that Wynne initially called it a “Word-Cross Puzzle.” Due to a typesetting error, it was later referred to as a “Crossword,” a term that became the standard nomenclature and solidified its identity in popular culture. With minimal alterations, Wynne’s design became the blueprint for the crosswords that millions solve daily in newspapers, books, and online platforms worldwide. To the left of the puzzle, a photograph of Arthur Wynne commemorates his ingenuity, with a caption highlighting his crucial role in transforming puzzle games. The accompanying text explains how Wynne’s innovation quickly became a cultural phenomenon. The crossword offered a novel blend of language, logic, and creativity, serving as a form of intellectual engagement and leisurely entertainment. Over time, crosswords have been used in various fields, including education, language learning, and even espionage during World War II, where crossword puzzles were utilized to test codebreaking recruits. Historically, the crossword puzzle’s significance lies in its ability to transcend language barriers and cultural differences, becoming a unifying pastime across the globe.

Looking at it all, you'll realise the system if not already broken, has been severely tampered with. But with faith in the ever great American dream, we mustn't let division or conflict come between us. We must remain firmly rooted in unity to conquer this plaque that is spreading so fast #Resist

Man we are living in the upside down. The inmates are truly running the asylum, it’s like One Who Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest on steroids. We must remain a united front to get through this dark time in our history, if they divide us they will win. Stay strong and #Resist WE WILL NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE!

Rest in Peace, Ricky Henderson - one of my favorite ball players of all time.

A true GOAT. Probably the most dynamic player I ever got to see play live.

And what a personality! A sad day for the baseball world. ⚾️
