🏳️‍🌈 Proud Pride Midi 🏳️‍🌈

· By Elle · Published 2023-06-12T20:06:09.593Z

Constructor's Note
My submission for the Midi Contest of 06/23. Shaded cells are all P, R, I, D or E cells that are at the intersection of a "proud" row and column. "Proud" rows/columns contain all the letters P, R, I, D, and E, in any order, at least once. Have fun, and spot the themed fills!

            Awesome! 28D made me grin - that's a new kind of clue to me.

                  Fun idea! That's some serious PRIDE representation in the grid. I wonder what would've been possible without the bars. Great 10A clue!
