Cool, if it's also Art Nouveau.

I hate to be a nitpicker but...

Agreed. Non-cowboy jobs in The Old Wild West included Prospector/Miner, Builder, Gunslinger/Bounty Hunter, Sheriff, Saloon Owner, Blacksmith, Wagon Train Leader, General Store Owner, Barber/Surgeon, Doctor/Veterinarian, Horse Dealer, Saloon Entertainer, Midwife, Schoolmarm, Farmer, Laundress... and of course Native Americans just trying to preserve their own society/way of life...

It's probably shows like "Rawhide," where the main cast of roving cowboys encounter all the above, that got us thinking of it all as "Cowboy Life."

Oh please. Bad enough he did it now we gotta listen to him rant about it? And whatever 27 other subjects he drags into it? It's all lies anyway.

Their executives have been given military titles of Lieutenant Colonel already! Without any military training or fitness test.

You gotta put down the duckie if you wanna play the saxophone 🎷🎶

In a fair world he'd have been allowed to stay in the town he grew up in. But I kinda wanna see him make a futbol career for himself and come back to score the winning goal against the US in the World Cup....

Amber bot is shit at poetry.

The idea of an onion as a metaphor for heartlessness is intriguing, because it's layers all the way down, but there's no poetry in the approach.

I don't think that's possible in my 1970s building. My water heater is in the kitchen and the tub/shower is way across the apartment so I get 2 gallons. I have a big balcony with lots of happy plants.

I feel like that title calls for a joke but I'm too tired

Tonight's news has a story about a new variant that can cause "razor blade throat" if you need another incentive

Paring and shaving away all excess, leaving only the simplest way, is what Occam's Razor does.

I would differ with the chart though, and say that if a razor is visible in the first act, someone's throat will be slashed by the end.

Wait, this is not from The Onion!?

Fucking idiotic timeline.

WHAT did you do to that poor baby‽‽‽

Jail for a thousand years!

Thanks, had forgotten "atlatl," gonna try it in NYT Spelling Bee next time it has those letters.

You're not supposed to just stand there and waste that warming-up water, you're supposed to collect it in a watering can and put it on your plants! It's got stuff from having sat in the water heater so it's not the best for drinking but plants don't mind.

I had the skin tone bra thing down pat, but blew my mind when I realized you can also have cute color bras that match or contrast with the outer clothes so if your strap shows it looks intentional!

I like buying local California olive oils, then I know it's real.

You'll still probably get better flavors when things are in season locally. Also, you'll need to check, but often the frozen version of produce is cheaper when the fresh version is in season, and frozen is easy to stock up on.

Anyone applying to colleges probably has one already.
