I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have mostly avoided wearing browns, I find them tricky. I do like chocolates and camels on me, I think. Or maybe I just like them and ignore if they are flattering or not. Warmer browns are better on me, I think, reddish rather than greenish?

I find I like the olives and mustards more than I used to, but not on me or in my, for lack of a better word, setting as they are super unflattering to my olive skin.

I love cream and ivory but they are also hard to judge and can go too yellow very easily. Straight up white is actually a good color on me. Wearing it right now AIFG.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm paralyzed with indecision about whether to go to SPX or sign up for this class. Both options are panic-inducing for me.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That's a tough choice, Tom. Both options sound really interesting (though the panic is ungood [but I get it]).

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm intrigued that Sherwin-Williams' range also includes Truly Taupe, not to mention Temperate Taupe. On the other side, it sits next to Less Brown, which, confusingly, is more brown than Poised Taupe. I have a preference for either Otter or Armadillo, to the surprise of no one. And now I'm tempted just to type random animals into S-W's search engine and see what develops. (Spoiler alert: neither Echidna nor Platypus are included in their current range, which is probably discriminatory in some fashion.)

Stand up for the rights of animals to be represented by inexplicable colors!

I would love to paint something Platypus. Or Poised Platypus.

Partial success! "Hippo" is totally a colour they have! It's part of their Vinyl Siding range, along with Humpback, Big Bear, Gray Squirrel and Llama. And Rrrreptile.

Alternatively, if you're in a "Who's your Dada" kind of mood, you could do your vinyl in: Boomerang, Sediment, Snicker, Weeping or (seriously) Guesswork.

I am anti-panic but pro-doing-stuff, Scola. I hope the panic ebbs, I guess, and one of them becomes more appealing?

Dang, maybe I should go for vinyl siding. Who knew?
