20A: I kept trying to think of mathematical stuff that could be a [Plane divider], like a line. When I got AISLE from the crosses, I was still confused. It was only writing for this thread that I understood that it was an airplane, not a mathematical plane.

47D: Yeah, I had no clue what [Pan in the butt?] was, even after getting it from the crosses. I had to look it up. From the Wordplay article, it referred to “Pan, the Greek god… He was said to be half man (on top), and half GOAT.”

32D: I first thought PAPER for [Art class staple], but then thought “Nah, that’s too easy, they must have another answer for that” but turned out it was.

57D: XKCD mentioned! [Popular stick-figure webcomic]

44A: [Cry over spilt milk?] being OOPS gave me a chuckle.

30D: Sorry, but the answer to [Hand sanitizer eliminates the need to do this] is RINSE!? You absolutely still need to wash your hands with soap, dude!

12D: As this is the New York Times, I had to think of which US coin was a [Coin with 12 stars on it], but none of the crosses fit. Turns out, it was a coin outside of the US: a EURO.

6D: An [Electrified Olympic weapon] is not referring to Zeus’s BOLT like I first thought, but rather a literal weapon of the Olympics that’s been fitted with electronics, like: an EPEE.

8D: [Huggers] are your ARMS, apparently! Makes sense in hindsight but had no clue at all while solving.

4D: Really clever cluing! A [Right-leaning type] isn’t referring to a person’s political stance. They mean type as in typographically! ITALICS are typefaces that are right-leaning. This one was fun.

I had a bit of trouble with the left and lower-left side of the board. I got POPE MOBILE right away, but it took a while for me to get JOGS/JIMI, I GOT A WOMAN (which is a song I wasn’t familiar with), and the rest of the board. I didn’t know what IPO or KENO was.
