I didn’t think there could be a wrong answer until I read this one…

Those seas in particular? Because they are bounded by narrow straights.

A gulf has a more specific definition. A sea has a very broad one.

A gulf is mostly enveloped (engulfed) by land, but fairly open to its parent waters relative to its size on one side. Like a reverse peninsula.

A sea can be just about any large, salty, body of water that is between bits of land. They can have very finite bounds such as narrow straights and rivers mouths, more porous bounds like an archipelago, or broadly open to the ocean / other seas between islands or other land masses.

The question for me is “why is the Persian Gulf not a sea, but the Adriatic Sea is not a gulf?”

I guess part of it is that language changes over time, these things got named by different people over the millennia before they were well mapped. Some are translations from other languages, some are political decisions.

The idiom "a lemon in the hand is worth the boat you rode in on" conveys a similar meaning to the idiom "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush". It emphasizes that it's better to appreciate what you have and avoid unnecessary risks or changes, as a loss of a current advantage may not be compensated by a potential future gain. The "lemon" represents something undesirable or less valuable, but the "boat" represents something that could potentially be better but is not guaranteed.

Just like Judith did to Holofernes, serving him copious wine and cheeses.

I’m sad to see it, but this is what they voted for. This is what republicans have been fighting for for years, decades even, and Arkansas’ entire federal delegation is republican.

I don’t know that I would ascribe that much malice to it. I think it’s just good ol’ clickbait aimed at the left for the ad revenue.

That would require delaying gratification, and I don’t think he is capable of that.

While Trump has repeatedly referred to his predecessor, Joe Biden, as the “worst president in history,” Biden didn’t have a lower net approval than Trump at this point of his presidency.

That’s some very narrow justification for publishing this article…

Chick semper tyranus!

In Japan, they are selling a Japanese language only model that is cheaper than the international version. Any Americans that don’t understand that and try to get around the tariffs are likely to be disappointed.

I’m going to set aside my dislike for pod machines and coffee in general to point out that warm moist environments encourage microbial growth. It is best to open and empty the machine so it can breathe between uses; especially overnight or over the weekend.
