As we move toward our fall subscription drive, we hope you’ll consider supporting us in part bc we are an independent media company.

No, crosswords are not as vital as journalism. But yes, all content that we consume matters, and it should be as free as possible from corporate control.

Here at TPFA, we love words, but let’s take a look at some numbers!

10 = number of days left in Fund-A-Thon


33,163 = dollars raised so far for TPFA5
🤑

655 = number of donations

✨Clue of the Week✨

This week’s clue is from a themeless collaboration by TPFA editors @clr-xw.bsky.social and @fabioethics.bsky.social!

There are a couple 4-letter birth control options, but not many that have been around since the 1960s!
