"Just Another Night Downtown"

Constructor's Note
Belated Pride puzzle, and a bit of an experiment with grid design and autofill. BTW, it's a big spoiler, so I recommend reading it after you're done (or if you're really stuck), but here is the interview mentioned in 17A17A"For a lot of us, ____ didn't change a thing" - Miss Major in a 2023 interview[---------]: https://tinyurl.com/bdeuby7a

      Something I've been curious about--can you see which logged-in folks have solved your puzzles? I'm mainly asking as an excuse not to comment when I don't have anything useful to say!

        AFAIK you can't - it just shows you how many people have solved it. But comments are not compulsory :)
