@Lulu This isn’t an airport; no need to announce your departure.
Judging by the amount of whinging in the comments, today was a lesson for quite a few people that “If there’s a rebus, then it must be Thursday” does not necessarily equal “if it’s Thursday, there must be a rebus.”
That’s one impressive debut. I both look forward to and dread what tricks Katie will be up to in the future.
I had a “Wait , what‽” moment when I got to 46-Across and the crosses spelled out C_NTS.
@Alex Barry If you were as erudite as you wished everyone to believe, you would know that a slippery slope is a logical fallacy, and therefore nothing to get one’s knickers in a bunch over.

@Nom De Plume They are percussion in a jug band.
@PuzzleDog I have slightly bad news for you. The good Mr. Crapper didn’t invent the toilet. He did, however, invent the floating ballcock in your toilet. Which would be a delight to see in a crossword as all the prides clutch their smelling salts here in the comments.
@loftyc If you haven’t heard of XKCD until now, I highly recommend you be one of today’s lucky 10,000 and go discover something smart and funny instead of proudly wallowing in your ignorance. But seriously, the xkcd strip “Ten Thousand” is an apt one to start with.

@Kristopher Specifically, a translator deals with written text while an interpreter deals with spoken words.
@Mean Old Lady I did the same on the computer woman. But her name was Ada, not Ida.
@David Shh. Let people enjoy things.
@Bruce AR(EAR)YA and its counterpart IH(EAR)UG make more sense when you jump through the EAR wormhole to get AR(EA R)UG and I H(EAR) YA.
