Highway to Hell

Constructor's Note
This is a fairly standard cryptic, but with a bit of an added theme!
I had a lot of fun creating this second puzzle! This one is somewhat more straightforward, so I managed to get a grid that I'm a bit more pleased with (although it's still far from that symmetrical aesthetic crosswords aspire to). I was also delighted find that, with some autofill assistance, I could sneak some of my personal interests into these answers and clues!

    I started out with the phrase "no chance in hell" (or something like that), then noticed that I could fit in a few the 7 deadly sins. Of course once I'd used some of them I just had to complete the set, but it was turning out to be a bit tricky from that particular seed phrase. Honestly though, I think ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO ENTER HERE is much more fun!
    As a student of anthropology, I was very excited to fit (archaeological) SITE, IPA, and HOMINOIDS into the non-themed entries, as well as STL, in reference to my hometown—St. Louis, Missouri! IPA, by the way, is not this linguist's favorite beer.
    Hope you all enjoy solving some of the more wacky clues as much as I enjoy writing them. I think my favorites from this puzzle are "my crow wave" and "tech savviness" = AI (artificial intelligence). If you have a favorite entry/clue, please comment! I'm always curious to know what stands out to people!
