    1. Not the answer but UNDERLIP PICKPOCKET I think works. Off to bed pleasant dreams and days to everyone

      1. Radioactive Flower

        Hey, Sir BILL DUFFIN,

        YES, it is! POTLUCK – KINDER, indeed! Yay!!!
        👍🤓
        ☢️🌼

          1. me too.

            I connected the letters for “NONBROADCAST” but LB didn’t like it, and also “CRYPTON” but LB didn’t like it either.

    1. Similar, I found the less efficient
      [ TRANSCRIPTS ~ SANDBOY ]
      I had no idea what a sandbox was but I know to play odd sounding compound words.

    2. Bernie Horowitz

      I found the less-than-satisfying OA, but ultimately preferred something a bit more surreal: Brainiac Cryptosporidia. (Also had Bronc Cryptosporidia, but it was too unpleasant. Poor horsies!)

  1. BRONCS—SAPIDITY

    BIPARTISAN—NONCANDIDACY*
    The opposite of current US politics.

    Good TI on the OA! ☕

    1. This is my favourite solution so far! “I hereby state, and mean all that I say, that I never have been and never will be a candidate for President; that if nominated by either party, I should peremptorily decline; and even if unanimously elected I should decline to serve.” — William Tecumseh Sherman.

    2. BRONCS – SAPIDITY for me as well. But I doubt horses have a pleasant taste, and I don’t think I want to find out.

          1. Good one KP! 😊
            That could be a new category, the other end of the spectrum.
            ☕☕

    3. Omg, another “almost” for me! I got Bipartisan, and Candidacy, and tried Non- (fruitlessly), but didn’t think of Noncandidacy. Good one!

    1. Come to think of it, CARBONADOS – STRIPY is a bit better. But nowhere near as good as Mark’s BIPARTISAN – NONCANDIDACY*.

  2. I wouldn’t have thought to use CRYPTO on its own, figuring it’s more of a prefix than a standalone word.
    CRYPTOSPORADIA–ANTIBIAS* (LB accepts the first of these words, but not the second)
    DRAINBOARD–DIPTYCAS* (*evidently, a less common plural form of ‘diptych’)

    1. plasticmicrochip(s)

      Although officially I think it’s two words.

      And I was also going to say “officially silicon” but after looking it up I see how behind the times that I am – they can make the chips out of plastic now.

  3. I can’t believe I wasn’t able to make a combo with SACROSANCTITY. All that was left was a B P and D.

  4. OA, but definitely took awhile. Annoyed that I didn’t see Storyboard, because I had Board and was looking to compound it with something.

    1. Oh, I should’ve got that one, BROADCASTS- SPINY, but I only got Sportscasts and Spiny among a whole bunch of great words and 3w and 4w answers. No way would I have found today’s OA.

  5. Here is the full list including Scrabble words:
