    So amazing, I especially liked 16d and 22a

      I didn't get the one half of 16D 🤷🏻‍♂️ but still enjoyed this puzzle, thank you.

        As I understand it, it's a (semi?) &lit, anagram of LARGEIC

          OK, that adds up, thanks.

      Nice and chill until it knocked me out of the sky for a long time without money! (jk, good cryptic!)

        Thanks for a very good cryptic. 6D "add" really misled me. I particularly liked 16D. Well done!
