Akaiatana: Ancient Reptilian Brain would like to take a walk.
EvilBadman: @DideRobot oh no a slashccident
iris_of_ether: Happy Get Effed Pierre P Day to all who celebrate
spinebustertee: and typing!
niccus: happy first past the post day
SymphonySolstice: it happened
Coloneljesus: election of all time
Despoiler98: I missed it who won?
SymphonySolstice: @despoiler98 yes
Coloneljesus: will it come before or after the viable fusion reactor?
iris_of_ether: I'm rooting for you
EvilBadman: We can go back to talking about Pierbattista Pizzaballa's pop chances
EvilBadman: pope*
Akaiatana: I live in Ottawa and relaxing is very important today
LordManiMani: @evilbadman I'd forgotten about him after a few days and now i'm happily reminded
iris_of_ether:

SymphonySolstice: very cool and normal
Coloneljesus: first new pope since vapes got big, so that could lead to some awkwardness
LordManiMani: Archdiocese?
Gadora: There was a mistranslation in the Bible. Apparently Jesus said "And this pizza sauce is my blood," not wine.
Luminaire_p: Hello, this game rules so much
SymphonySolstice: that was funny
GasCityGaming: backflip next Live?
TheMerricat: According to Google, he appointed over 108 of them, which it claims is high. But doesn't tell me what is 'normal'
Akaiatana: Short walk off a long pierre
iris_of_ether: That brought me actual glee
Azralorne: Gotta takes the wins you can get

Akaiatana: Jagmeet Singh shops at my grocery store with his kid sometimes. I will miss him.
Chaotically_Random: I'd rather be boring than give people anxitey
insanecat6mtg: Hello everyone
TheMerricat: Oh, Francis appointed 108 of the 135 in total. Yeah he totally stacked the deck, *crosses fingers*
TheAwkes: I just watched Conclave on Sunday, and had forgotten what is was specifically about until it started. I was like, time to finally watch that cool drama about those Catholic fellas having a big meeting, or whatever.
LordManiMani: Looks like an archdiocese has an archbishop... and also can have a cardinal? I can't find a separate name for a Cardinal-run dioscese
GapFiller: Conclave feels like a v topical film to watch rn
TheAwkes: I watched it because it was on Mikey's to 5 of '24 movies list.
LordManiMani: What about watching Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce hanging out as Popes

Luminaire_p:
Why, that sounds like Muppets Most Wanted 
Luminaire_p: You're welcome
Chaotically_Random: and a Mole
Luminaire_p: GOD IT MAKES ME SO MAD
Luminaire_p: That series was incredibly anti-muppet
Coloneljesus: talk about aliens?
Chaotically_Random: Alienated the Muppets
Azralorne: This intro is very Let's Nope of you
GasCityGaming: Play any Blue Prince?
Chaotically_Random: WHAT?!
niccus: fair
ContingentCat: Ooo tell us your hot takes
hermonthis: @Chaotically_Random Miss Piggy as Ripley?
TheMerricat: And superglue
Chaotically_Random: Can I get back my 10 years of following back!?
TheMerricat: And selling you legos.
Azralorne: This sounds like the take people have on the Minecraft movie
wolfskull7: omg heyyy
GapFiller: my cynical take was The LEGO Movie is Ready Player One but good
KV1NN4: Sadly, sometimes kids shows can't exists without toy sales 8n8
GapFiller: theyre basically the same movie
Brozard: LEGO Movie and Barbie are safely anti-capitalist. And have Will Farrell as the villain.
GapFiller: fkn ell Ready Player One is a pile
A_Dub888: @GasCityGaming I have, it rules
Chaotically_Random: So is Peepe the Alien?
LordManiMani: I look forward to more Cameron Reviews... Checkpoint segments
Azralorne: I wouldn't suggest it
iris_of_ether: We walked out of Scary Movie
Gekyouryuu: It's a bit telling that a major plot point of the Lego movie was ignoring prepared kits and building your own thing, and then those "own things" were sold AS prepared kits
TheMerricat: You know, when I first discovered Ernie Cline, I was so impressed with his spoken word stuff, then he wrote Ready Player One....
KV1NN4: Eurotrip is fine to miss (I've seen it twice didn't really enjoy it either time)
GasCityGaming: last movie i saw in theatre was Bob's Burgers
hermonthis: @Chaotically_Random oh I snorted at that one lol
Azralorne: None of those "foundational" movies have aged well
niccus: similarly, andor is probably compromised media
TheAwkes: I am experiencing an identical lack of interest in spending time in a dark room with unmasked people.
wolfskull7: Cam, what r u reading at the moment?
GapFiller: gonna see Katsuhiro Otomo Memories inna cinema tmrw
A_Dub888:
what is this moo-V? 
Chaotically_Random: @hermonthis There was the short where he was the baby xeno, so just him big as the Xeno would be great
GapFiller: so lookin fwd to that
Brozard: I'm still trying to formulate precisely why I didn't like the new Daredevil
Gekyouryuu: I've heard "Thunderbolts*" is actually decent and smart for a change, so I'm looking forward to judging for myself
Luminaire_p: You could always talk about how the game you're about to play isn't actually critical enough of generational wealth
hermonthis: @Chaotically_Random what?! okay gonna have to search that one up!
GapFiller: Andy!
Akaiatana: I would like to look into the meanspirited muppet thing. What was it named again?
kusinohki: meows
iris_of_ether: Yee
Luminaire_p: @Akaiatana The Muppets. It's basically Muppets do The Office
wolfskull7: im raedin oryx and crake, mistborn, a few otehrs
iris_of_ether: Already did
Akaiatana: Okay
ContingentCat: Sometimes it makes a difference having the paper thing
Angnor33:
Got it a bit ago! 
Akaiatana: Improvision: Yes Andy
Akaiatana: Go with your 'gut.
Invitare: see the reason I don't read more is because it would cost me too much money >_>
ContingentCat: back when we had attention spans
iris_of_ether: Vonnegut rips tho
Gadora: I got a subscription to a science fiction magazine in an attempt to increase my reading again.
ContingentCat: that's how my family going camping was, a lot of reading around the campfire
wolfskull7: lol!
Luminaire_p: I finally got to The Calculating Stars
iris_of_ether: Strongest mood
GapFiller: the real problem ofc is when yr all yr friends want to play board games and read books infront of a camera
kusinohki: if cori doesn't want her board game friends, I'll take them
GapFiller: so they can monetise their hobbies
Luminaire_p:
But I love Catan 
hermonthis: i listen to a lot of audiobooks now, multitasking baby
iris_of_ether: I like board games. I do not like Catan
wolfskull7: have you read Vox?
Brozard: I still haven't made it through that, I fell off Manhunt. I fall off a lot of books though, more a comment on my attention span.
kusinohki: I also like catan. know lots of board gamers who don't. *cries*
Gekyouryuu: I keep meaning to get around to High-rise, and it's amazing opening 10 words "later, as he sat on the balcony, eating the dog"
Akaiatana: Ironman-ing books
empyreon: couldn't be me...
iris_of_ether: Yeah there's a reason I listen to KEXP rather than NPR for the past 8 years
TheAwkes: I made it 2 chapters into a Dresden Files book before deciding the prose and narrative style was entirely not for me.
Luminaire_p:
Not into the stress of tanking, I'd rather heal the tank from the news 
SymphonySolstice: I'd love to but I live with someone who scrolls through twitter for 5 hours a day
Luminaire_p: Only read novels with X-Wings on the cover
Brozard: Still chasing the high of reading half of "Guards! Guards!" in one day
iris_of_ether: Webcomics got your back
Earthenone: !holes
LRRbot: Did somebody mention classic young-adult action-adventure movie Holes??
AMuseOfFirebane: I've been working my way incredibly slowly through The Traitor Baru Cormorant
wolfskull7: sounds like the dark web to me
wolfskull7:

spinebustertee: As a librarian, reading what speaks to you is infinitely more important than stratifying things and only reading what is 'worth reading'
hermonthis: @TheAwkes i gotcha. i listened to the audiobook (narrator was great) but the writing was eh?
Brozard: My partner is very supportive about the fact I read a looooot of different manga regularly
Earthenone: need stream of conciousness ramblings from a teenager, got it
spinebustertee: Every reader their book, every book their reader!
Chaotically_Random: Holes was a great book, and a great movie, I think one of the best book to film adapations
Brozard: same
RebekahWSD: No no, need quality like me, writing 50k for nanowrimo, without an editor, and slapping it on ao3 at 3am
Luminaire_p: I keep running into AI slop in that sort of reading space and it's been super upsetting
Brozard: What about books you want to be able to lend?
protojman: I've had similar thoughts lately about various physical objects. "they're not achievements" is a good way to put it
Akaiatana: Most books are wrote, though
Chaotically_Random: @Akaiatana I miss read that as woke... and had to double take
wolfskull7: Vin
Earthenone: cori is indeed overpowered
bytecaster: So how are the roottress doing?
iris_of_ether:

bytecaster: *trees
undecided44: Yeah.. that's why my kids are so annoying... they're just like me.
DoodlestheGreat: As a child in the late 60's, I used to read a series of books called "The Happy Hollisters." Then in the 90's I got a chance to reread them and... WHOOSH. Parochial & bigoted.
niccus: they won't die as long as you don't start the game
Chaotically_Random: Wait... Dinosaurs as Dinosaurs?!
GapFiller: this is kinda my animus (one of em anyway) w/ people who only read a book/watch a movie/play a game ect once
Luminaire_p: I had $10 on no more Warhammer, because it was a billion times payout
thesimbiote:
Ahhh, so excited to see you two play this 
bytecaster: You wouldn't collapse a waveform in the style of you wouldn't download a car
GapFiller: dont personally care to treat the media consume as that kinda disposable
Earthenone: can we repurpose the root trees as paper or something?
SymphonySolstice: I mean yeah there's so many bugs down there
Akaiatana: What if we are Terran Flares?
bytecaster: That's a very fungus point of view.
iris_of_ether: Basically fungus yeah
Brozard: Overstory?
Gekyouryuu: Cori, nothing is a real name people have until they have it, like how the vast majority of people named Madison are named after the mermaid from the movie Splash, even if indirectly
Brozard: my connection blipped
superprdez: yep, that's a thing
wolfskull7:
i need a pic of ur bookshelf 
Coloneljesus: there was one guy who swallowed gene-engineered bacteria to get rid of his lactose intolerance
Coloneljesus: worked for like 3 years
Luminaire_p:
I'll be in chat less now, I need to get my arm propped back up 
Brozard: Not exactly, but there's some good and similar themese
RebekahWSD: I always hate it's called ringworm when it's not worm
cheshire_creeper: I've got to ask a question: have any of you played any TheCatamites game because. I feel like you would particularly vibe with thecatamites
Brozard: I still haven't finished it myself
superprdez: there's a theory in immunology (somewhat proven) that parasites suppress excessive autoimmune reactions
thesimbiote: There's a type of worm that secretes antinflammatory substances, but can't recall the name of the species
DoodlestheGreat: Given that the original vaccination for smallpox was to get cowpox, the worm thing makes sense.
bytecaster: What would be cooler than dinos on dinos?
GapFiller: WHY???
SymphonySolstice: do you like pancakes
Luminaire_p: This game is terrific, but like 90% of the people in it are complete assholes
RebekahWSD: Favourite spice?
GhostValv: what should I have for dinner?
ContingentCat: How many cats is the ideal number to live with?
lenonn_2949: Chair comfy?
Strebenherz: Favorite food?
bytecaster: Dinos all the way up
MMoritz: where are the snowdens of yesteryear
Akaiatana: Sporty
cheshire_creeper: Do you think you would ever play a TheCatamites game?
kusinohki: what's you beef with Catan??
RebekahWSD: Good spice
Luminaire_p: Dino Riders was already the coolest
Gekyouryuu: Oh, cam, I randomly saw someone screenshot a tweet of yours about Death of the Author on tumblr
thesimbiote: Do you enjoy desserts?
RhoxPaperScissors: which sock do you put on first?
wolfskull7: how much would you spendon warhammer in one outing?>
JKBalch: Cat=2 or #of people -1
Chaotically_Random: Would you like to Build a Snowman!?
GapFiller: is the Floyds Mahoney still worth trying these days?
Feriority: Where are the bodies buried?
shushu2539: who is the best at Oki Oki?
Invitare: Snowden is in Wales?
ContingentCat: Favourite toast topping?
MMoritz:
Cam is the only streamer I trust to understand that question, so thank you 
cheshire_creeper: TheCatamites is a cool game developer that I think you would particularly enjoy (for context)
Chaotically_Random: How big is said box
bytecaster: How dare they put boxes in boxes
GapFiller: just boxes all the way down
Strebenherz:

MMoritz: @invitare it's a catch 22 reference
bytecaster: What is a storage crate if not a big box though?
Gekyouryuu: No, they were using you to remind people that Death of the Author doesn't just mean you get to enjoy media uncritically. It was 100% a positive context in which you were used
GasCityGaming: what's a mahoney?
ContingentCat: it's a noun
bytecaster: You are allowed to flip a coin any time on your own time too!
bytecaster: Just FYI
Strebenherz: Per that old panalysts, what do you think about being a lighthouse operator surrounded by puffins?
wolfskull7: sounds mental
Laserbeaks_Fury: an Egg MacGuffin
ContingentCat: @bytecaster the coin police won't come for me?
iris_of_ether:

bytecaster: @ContingentCat If you use a regulation coin, it's fine

Knitting_Goblin: I love this game! Have fun!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, Knitting_Goblin! (Today's storm count: 9)
Strebenherz: That's a good take/, point Cam, I appreciate that
Invitare:
Oh? Maybe you could make a Youtube Short explaining it 
GapFiller:
itll prob be readable in the time left before they start playing todays game 
GapFiller: tldr the authors statements of their intent are not authoritative
Laserbeaks_Fury: my go to example is the Special Edition of Star Wars; where what we think is important about Star Wars was clearly not what was important to George Lucas
GapFiller:
Death of the Author being a license for uncritical media consumption feels like wilfully media illiteracy
thesimbiote: So, essentially, the reader has equal authority in reading as the author had in writing? Ish?
wolfskull7: i teach English to secondary school in the UK, so I have this convo a lot with my students
Invitare: I thought Hatsune Miku made Minecraft
GapFiller: yr still expected to read AND think is it feels the main takeaway here
thesimbiote: Ah, okay, cool
Akaiatana: You must discern meaning.
Chaotically_Random: Bless whomever sneezed
MMoritz: I can't remember the exact quote, but SF Debris said something like "What does it mean?" is not as important as "What does it mean to me?"
Akaiatana: It's also an act of english classes.
Bruceski: Meaning is what the reader takes from a work, not what the author meant to put into it. The meaning they wanted the reader to get out of it can still be worth looking at.
Luminaire_p: as the author I was saying X-Wings are cool
Brozard: There's often times authors/artists don't know what they mean when they create something
Invitare: ah I see you too have played Nier Automata
iris_of_ether: There's a ProZD about the boob thing
GapFiller: it feels Death of the Author is often used to justify art as pablum when its an anti art as pablum txt (imo)
Vindexrix: its not straight forward they boobed everywhere
Gekyouryuu: Like how people got a trans reading out of My Life as a Teenage Robot, where they hadn't been intended
ContingentCat: Or they forget what they were thinking at the time
thesimbiote: Sometimes you write something that just sounds cool to you at the time
MDHWrites: As an author, I bullshit the themes and conceited behind my works all the time after writing something because i whooped into them when I was just trying to write an idea I found neat
ContingentCat: silly messy things humans are
Brozard: "I must produce" is stronger than "I must convey"?
TheAwkes: Sometimes the author comes out and says that continued consumption of their work is a sign of people agreeing with their beliefs.
Brozard:

iris_of_ether: I was just about to mention Murderbot!
spinebustertee: Mr. Skarsgard is certainly a choice.
ContingentCat: Inform us Cori
thesimbiote: I'm an Aphant, so I never developed enough of a concept to care
Gekyouryuu: On the one hand: looks like "generic idea of a person" but on the other, the world of the story might've moved beyond "generic human = white guy"
DoodlestheGreat: Ah! So it's similar to the old Kurt Russell movie "Soldier."
GapFiller: gotta admit still never read Murderbot Diaries despite it being on the list for a v long time
Chaotically_Random: Do they have too, I'd rather watch TV then save people myself
iris_of_ether: A lot of my friends adore it
Akaiatana: You can't go homicide again.
Juliamon: yeah I *wanna* read it but... *gestures to world*
Invitare: it's... Martha Wells right?
Brozard: I've heard a few folks I respect their opinions of recommend Murderbot
thesimbiote: The audio books are really well acted, too
niccus: i don't think they find that family until way later
Chaotically_Random: So Found Family Guardians of the Galaxy or One Piece
GapFiller: Brozard its on my reading list specifically cz Elizabeth Sandifer rated it
Invitare: see I've read those fantasy ones and I think they're really good, but Murderbot does not appeal to me
Laserbeaks_Fury: I think the stabbing robot from Futurama
Gekyouryuu: Oh, cam, you reminded me, based on the year it was set, Frozen might imply Elsa killed the men of The Terror, The Erebus, and the Donner Party
Chaotically_Random: Me too Murderbot Me too
Gekyouryuu: Character creator default settings
LordZarano: Murderbot Diaries has been in a couple Humble book bundles, I should probably read them some time
Laserbeaks_Fury: speaking of murders
thedepthandbreadthofseth: hello @LoadingReadyRun . Are we looking forward to the Web 1.0 sim?
wildpeaks: perhaps the stream category should be switched to Just Chatting at the start of streams
vanman229: really giving adam and ben a run for their money
Laserbeaks_Fury: This is a really good game
AFamiliarCalledEl: ohhh, I just started playing this game with some friends. this will be fun to see
Luminaire_p: this is one of my favorite games this year
Brozard: Oh! I recommended this to a friend

Thanks for subscribing, Garfy400! (Today's storm count: 10)
Luminaire_p: I made the mistake of turning off intuition for my first 4 hours
Laserbeaks_Fury: I'd say it closer to Golden Idol if you've ever played that
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Fun fact; Butler County seems to be the Butler County in which Mr. Belvedere took place.
MMoritz: I first saw this game watching a voice actor stream the itchio version. That voice actor is in the steam real
Laserbeaks_Fury: This is a period game
MMoritz: release
thedepthandbreadthofseth: no, Cam, windows 4.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: the correct windows.
Invitare: Eat the rich!
Earthenone: roll credits
Bruceski: Hooray!
accountmadeforants: Great moment to unmute "There were no survivors"
Luminaire_p: I’m still weirded out that they changed the Roottree sisters portrait you start with
Akaiatana: Vampires can't.
GasCityGaming: I'm not hearing the prairie here lady
MMoritz: @luminaire_p yeah, they wanted them to look like actual teenagers
thedepthandbreadthofseth: look, a wireless phone!
Invitare: the door is still open
thesimbiote: @luminaire_p I thought I was losing my mind. Glad you pointed that out
krzysztorf: what are we sleuthing around for
Akaiatana: Luckily, while same face disease is terminal, that no longer matters.
Luminaire_p: such names
TheAwkes: Confound it. These sisters look alike!
TheAinMAP: So when the game says "The Roottrees are dead," does it just mean the ones on the plane? Or is the number of heirs about to start declining?
DoodlestheGreat: Can you flip that picture over?
Akaiatana: @TheAinMAP At the moment it seems to refer to the five in the immediate family.
ShaneLeeAtk: I miss the handshakes and the new world it unlocked.
kumatsu: Brave New Faves really taking off
voren_chalco: It's about the IPs you don't connect to
Brozard: Milly Monka
CaptainSpam: That's what we need, a search engine that reports all data in second person, as if you were playing interactive fiction.
GasCityGaming: isn't Root slang for sexy times in Australia?
TheAinMAP: The defining feature of the middle child is that they're the middle child feels familiar.
gsyhiap: @CaptainSpam That's a significant improvement on anything involving an AI tbh
Luminaire_p: the names are in the family tree
Laserbeaks_Fury: seach each sister?
Azralorne: This is the kind of game where keeping notes helps a Lot
Luminaire_p: the in-game not system is very useful
Luminaire_p: *note
thesimbiote: Yeah, having a sheet of paper really helps
accountmadeforants: Rosaline?
Luminaire_p: I’m fascinated watching you think
thesimbiote: Nah, it's fun
Invitare: it is if you're stood outside in the middle of winter, watching through an open door
accountmadeforants: (Not backseating, just a suggestion for a name that might be Rose)
Azralorne: That's just the game 💜 you're good Cameron
Gekyouryuu: Can we search by first name?
Luminaire_p: genealogy lists names at birth, maybe you need more evidence
krzysztorf: chat am i cooked?
thesimbiote: One overall piece of advice, then I promise not to give any more, but if you come up against a total wall, odds are you just don't have enough information yet for that entry
Luminaire_p: break!
GapFiller: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
DoodlestheGreat: Heyt, some progress has been made.
RhoxPaperScissors: digging the soundtrack
PipeSmokingOwl: crawler?
shushu2539: OSINT using Altavista
PipeSmokingOwl:
@shushu2539 
CaptainSpam: Wow. That was a vintage reference to a Crash Bandicoot ad.
Luminaire_p:
they WERE models 
Pteraspidomorphi: I hope this isn't like the Dark family tree
CaptainSpam: UNIQUE websites.
GapFiller: oooh websites
accountmadeforants: These haven't been indexed by the search engines yet, you gotta type the URL manually
Luminaire_p: hahahaha
TheAinMAP: The does sound odd.
Laserbeaks_Fury: You can find multiple pictures of foks
Luminaire_p: remember: it’s always maiden name/name at birth
accountmadeforants: One of the children was Cool, the other was Awesome, and one of them was just So
Luminaire_p: also, make sure to look up as many proper nouns as possible from everything
silenceaux: The person who gave you that list also coloured in a very nice star with crayon?
accountmadeforants: @silenceaux Ominous people standing in the shadows in your doorway can still have fun
Tynermeister: i always forgot to click the faces in the photos
Luminaire_p: a thing that might be useful: you can spider search from highlighting
hackingducks: always good to have a red herring in your family tree
Luminaire_p: he’s a “Red” Herring
spinebustertee: My favorite embellishment in this game: full text searchable periodical archives in 199X.
Tynermeister: theres some very funny 4th wall breaking if you go down some rabbit holes as well
gsyhiap: There was a periodicals icon on the computer desktop
spinebustertee: This game does a really good job of mimicking the actual strategies you need to take to do genealogical research.
LordZarano: "the modern meaning of a false trail may have been popularized in a news story by English journalist William Cobbett, c. 1805, in which he claimed that as a boy he used a red herring (a cured and salted herring) to mislead hounds following a trail; the story served as an extended metaphor for the London press, which had earned Cobbett's ire by publishing false news accounts regarding Napoleon. The OED has another possible earlier origin" - Wiktionary
Laserbeaks_Fury: Clancin and relaxin
Pteraspidomorphi: Clancéd
Tynermeister: recommend giving the highlighter a try. i found it very useful
accountmadeforants: Well, apparently one of them used to be Elderberry
Luminaire_p: ooh, a book title
accountmadeforants: Curse you broken image links
hackingducks: stupid web. you're too young to have broken links!
Luminaire_p:
this is one of my favorite side puzzles 
accountmadeforants:
Hey, at least it was case-insensitive 
Luminaire_p: love a second volume
A_Dub888: Hello fam, are the Roottrees dead?
SymphonySolstice: some of them yes
accountmadeforants: @A_Dub888 There were no survivors, according to the news anchor
BusTed: Red herring
A_Dub888: @accountmadeforants what about beavers?
Cptasparagus: The picture on the desk looks a bit like Gillian Jacobs
Tynermeister: ah the 90s internet. twas a different time
30teracyte: the notable roottrees list says that only names on that list will be easily searchable
thesimbiote: Doom jazz is popular right now
AFamiliarCalledEl: you can click the little cassette at the bottom to see exactly what it is
KV1NN4: I thoguht this was some Scooby Doo mystery solving music >.>;
BusTed: I think you can click on the small cassette tape at the bottom of the screen to get the credits
Luminaire_p: you can click on the tape icon to find the name and artist of songs
accountmadeforants: Kool Kats by Kevin Macleod, apparently
Luminaire_p: the hints are REALLY well done
niccus: games per game
Luminaire_p: they start incredibly general
Tynermeister: oh its kevin mcleod. that makes sense
accountmadeforants: The album it's from is called Disco Ultralounge, which is just a very good name for this
accountmadeforants:
Cult Leader 
A_Dub888: @accountmadeforants He funded the Gods Not Dead movies?
Luminaire_p: there is a tradition for Jr.s
Luminaire_p: didn’t unburden himself from the root tree money, though
Coloneljesus: don't think he could if he wanted to?
BusTed: Still good info
Laserbeaks_Fury: it could be useful if birth order is hard to figure out
Luminaire_p: hmm, 5 pieces were released in 22 and named after the kids
Coloneljesus: what is google?
spinebustertee: Miracle the Third, Ian's favorite televangelist
BusTed: I'm thirfty
niccus: wednesday the third
oberon939: Miracle the 3st
BusTed:

Laserbeaks_Fury: If something happens 3 times, might wanna reconsider the name "Miracle"
Luminaire_p: 6 MORE
Coloneljesus: she return on my obra until I dinn. is this something?
A_Dub888: I mean....
