The answers are:
OPTIMALLUBRICANT
COPULA-ABOMINATOR
Nice!
Ha! I had CUPOLA-ABOMINATOR
PROBIOTIC — COLUMNAR
How to arrange them on the shelf?
Good one! I got PROBIOTIC and COLUMN but not COLUMNAR.
My answer in the end: PLANTARIUM – MICROBIOTA. Hats off to today’s puzzle for the wonderful answers you can come up with
Yes!
Bromantic culprit
Same
A few months ago, I was stumped by an OA that included probiotic. Since then, I have found it to be great puzzle breaker for letterboxed. If not for the OA, often for an alternative solution.
Same
Public Cormorant
Lubricant Topman also. Ever so slightly more efficient than the OA so that’s a little something.
Fiddled about until Lubricant then a soln. was imminent 🙂
Note to self – backspace does not work the way I think it should…
I got LUBRICANT – TOPMAN as well
PUBLIC—CORMORANT here, too. I thought about DW.
CUPOLA-ABOMINATOR.
architectural antipathy
BROMANTIC – CLUMP
&
PUBLIC – CORMORANT
Nice to get something quickly after yesterday’s fail.
BROMANTIC-CLUMP for me too.
aka: a scrum.
😃
Bromantic culprit
LUBRICANT – TOPMAN
Eugh!!
Maybe that’s why the store closed down, all the clothes were too tight.
Oops, Topman didn’t close down completely, its still an online retailer.
Maybe they sell this with their skinny jeans.
(Hey, are you two related?)
Once I entered Lubricant I had it.
Albinic Computator
Nice!
BUMP – PROLACTIN
Nice, Kat! What you need when nursing isn’t going too smoothly.
I was thinking prenatal ~ postnatal!
I get it-Hahahaha, Kat 🤣
Me too.
COMPLICIT TURBAN.
Funny to see ROBOCOP again as an accepted word.
I like this a lot!
Another COMPLICIT – TURBAN after a Goldilocks struggle: not too hard, not too easy, just right 🙂
COMPLICIT / TURBAN here, too!
Publica Animator…
propaganda cartoonist
PUBLICA – ANIMATOR for me as well, followed by LUBRICANT – TOPMAN.
Probiotic-culmina
Publican-natatorium. I am not proud but in a hurry this morning.
I’ll do you one worse….
PUBLICITOR – ROMAN
Likewise.
I too started out with the poolside tavern, then moved on to Public Cormorant and Bromantic Cupola (missed Clump somehow), then called it quits.
BLIMP-PROTACTINIUM
Led Zeppelin in a parallel universe.
Oh, nice, I saw actinium but didn’t look further
How about Public – Cormorant

urbanic complicit
complicit – turban
Two solutions that had a certain ring to me:
MINICAMP—POLITBURO
BOTANIC—CIRCUMPOLAR
Ah, there’s the pairing for Politburo that I missed!
Bromantic – Clump
When solving, I missed CORMORANT. Shame on me. I first got PROBIOTIC – COLUMNAR, then COMPLICIT – TURBAN.
Other birds in reply to Jangram ☝🏻️

Can you find all 12 ‘r’ words that pair with publicitor (first word)?
publica – aromantic
What a wealth of possibilities! The creative combos are fun to scroll through (not to mention the images they conjure up). But I especially like all the words I might never have been exposed to outside this group.
COMPLICIT TURBAN. Iran perhaps?
complicit / turbinal
ANTIBIOTIC–CIRCUMPOLAR
Found it relatively quickly this morning, and figured I’d go back for more. Never found the time, though. Surprised at the variety of answers, and that no one else seems to have found this one (unless I overlooked).
