I have yet again kept up the mentally exhausting tradition of posting a 31x45 puzzle every 25th puzzle. I feel very, very spent. I hope you're happy, readers!
I would like to thank the people, dogs, and God who have kept my blog and me alive. I can't think of much else to say, so here's a video I found while trying to find an interesting link related to the number 450.
If you enjoy my weekly word puzzles, please consider supporting me monthly on Patreon. Just a dollar a month is all it takes to support your favorite fuzzy puzzlemaster. Higher pledges get you perks such as sneak peeks at this blog's puzzles, exclusive puzzles just for patrons, and opportunities to suggest seed words. Thank you!
Who's the author?
Grant Fikes has been writing logic puzzles in an amateur capacity since 2005, and in a professional capacity since 2013.

As a budding word puzzle constructor, Grant's puzzles have appeared in the short-lived Will Shortz's Wordplay, in GAMES World of Puzzles, and in the smartphone app Bonza, and his creation Pent Words has won an award from Kadon Enterprises. On the Internet, Grant has adopted the persona of a purple and cyan fox/badger hybrid.

Who made those images?
