Gekyouryuu: why'd you drink the Super Beer, dude?
loufghyslaufey: 2025 to 2026: "Oh, hi. So, how are you holding up? Because I'm a Potato. (slow clapping) Oh, good. My slow clap processor made it into this thing. So we have that."
public_key_reveal_party: ah, yes, time comes for all
TacitusVigil: Hello again Cameron.
MrSarkhan: still getting over a cold
TacitusVigil: Not great
Zerragonoss: @LaeliaTBR Glad I am not the only one who heard that.
morgwen921: Still here
ArdCollider: I just woke up.
LaeliaTBR: i have a cat in my lap so good
DoodlestheGreat: I'm okay.
PhorrestGaze: Better than you it seems
TXC2: well I barely slept last night, so mid :p
public_key_reveal_party: got too high last night, but still alive
AMuseOfFirebane: Not too bad, staring at a bit of brainstorming fiction work I did last night
calculated_uncertainties: @ArdCollider samesies
Gekyouryuu: well, 2025 ended with my Uncle dying (like literally yesterday), and 2026 hasn't started with any family dying yet, so already doing better
Simriel: Only the smallest of men
public_key_reveal_party: @Gekyouryuu sorry for your loss lrrSHINE
TheAinMAP: VirtualHug
RandomTrivia: Hi friends! lrrHEART I hear we're doing something with/about potatoes?
SymphonySolstice: tragic
RockPusher: McDs?
TXC2: hello RandomTrivia welcome
Zerragonoss: Hell does not sound right, more likely suspended precariously looking down at hell.
AMuseOfFirebane: @Gekyouryuu my condolences <3
RockPusher: oof
calculated_uncertainties: ah, so not office coffee
public_key_reveal_party: o7
wedge_x: oh honey
TacitusVigil: We should have made a sacrifice to the Wicker Beej for the new year
DoodlestheGreat: You have my sympathies.
MrSarkhan: hell of a way to start the new year
SymphonySolstice: sometimes you just need The Swill
Gekyouryuu: doesn't Serge have the ability to psychically manifest either himself with coffee, or merely coffee by itself, when any are in need?
MrVirite: 2 down, might as well go for the hatrick
DrasonSpike: no coffee in moonbase?
loufghyslaufey: Oh. Moonbase out of grinds, I see?
Steelwolf171: I'd rather take a swig from the cab's gas tank than go for Tim's
bytecaster: hot (brown) takes
RockPusher: I mean, a lot of things are mostly superstition
TacitusVigil: Time to flood the moonbase with coffee again
ArdCollider: audiophile religion but for extraction
anclag: Hello, is this the channel for potato facts?
TXC2: there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, so fuck it, order that food taxi :p
Spades_Slicc: I'm pretty sure the LRR craft has a perpetual Correspondance/Matter/Life Rote that summons Serge either with coffee or to make coffee
margieargie: I'm guessing this -isn't- an adaptation of The Martian, but we'll see
LaeliaTBR: did you have fun last night at least?

TacitusVigil: Maybe if Europe had local good food and spices they would have minded their own damn business
AMuseOfFirebane: @loufghyslaufey My sympathies
TacitusVigil: Anne of Green Gables
TXC2: Europe had all the meats, the Americas had all the plants
RockPusher: Eat potato, no slander potato
SkipIives: I had to drive three hours in the snow to pick up my youngest and his idiot friends because "drama" happened. I mean that is par for the course on New Year's Eve isn't it?
GhostValv: 2026 hasn't stumbled and vomited over itself yet.
Texan_Reverend: Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers - sounds like a great omelette.
Steelwolf171: When it (and the other nightshades) were introduced to Europe and were used as ornimental plants because everyone thought they were toxic
public_key_reveal_party: I did just remember I have frozen potatoes in my kitchen, which sound really good right now
letsbelgo: khaosp4Lick khaosp4Lick
SkipIives: Yes, let's play
TacitusVigil: Movies tell me that's a bad idea, but eff it, let's do it live
gibbousm: Bay Gull not Sea Gull?
ArtDecoSunburn: Oh, the Columbian Exchange.
GasCityGaming: did not expect that title screen
bytecaster: Is this RPG Maker?
SymphonySolstice: good image
ghizmou: that is not the soundtrack I expected
Texan_Reverend: Game audio seems high.
MrVirite: @bytecaster it does look it
Simriel: Boyface
Spades_Slicc: Rename to Girl pls
Revenant77x: Boy, Oh
Creideiki_SE: The singular "setting" in the main menu looked weird, but it turned out to be correct.
Texan_Reverend: But it could just be the menus. Those are often different from Actual Game.
wedge_x: in the grim future of potato
Driosenth: It sounds just like last night!
ArtDecoSunburn: @wedge_x A future that's baked?
TheAinMAP: jlrrFall
TXC2: who falls off the FOOT of the bed?
public_key_reveal_party: falling off the foot of the bed takes skill, ngl
wedge_x: there is only potato
e_bloc: oh this takes place the same year as megaman
RockPusher: Starch 1st 20XX
Creideiki_SE: Is this potato clicker?
TXC2: so we're Matt Damon?
margieargie: Tending to read "XX" as 20 hits a bit different since 2020... uh... happened to us
Greendrag13: Good afternoon! I'm afraid my potato will not be surviving! I've quartered and roasted it
MrVirite: @TXC2 No we're Boy.
TXC2: hello Greendrag13 welcome
e_bloc: that is more or less how Penn Jillette lost a lot of weight
TacitusVigil: One potato a man eats!
TXC2: MrVirite Matt Damon's a boy
ArdCollider: —did Cori just opt to do this *to* you?
RockPusher: ! Cooking !
bytecaster: This is very RPG Maker core
Simriel: I just had pizza, or I would order a baked potato yeah
RedAlexxis: Potato cooking skill tree?
SymphonySolstice: so it was a cooking game all along
MrVirite: I do find it facinating that ta lot of these games use the actual map logic as a menu
Sethalidos: Is this game real or did I eat a bad edible?
TacitusVigil: Tough guys don't dance: the game!
CaptainSpam: This is a strange Cook, Serve, Delicious mod.
ghizmou: how can you fail a baked potato ?
e_bloc: baked potato has to be one of the highest taste-to-skill required to create meals
TXC2: Sethalidos por que no los dos?
public_key_reveal_party: same
Spades_Slicc: 100% success failed? Game based on X-Com I see
TXC2: we learned how to learned!
CaptainSpam: So, you're using knowledge to gain... research.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: You can just learn volition?!
Desruprot: Happy New Potato
gibbousm: That tracks
MrVirite: yes
RedAlexxis: since when?
ArdCollider: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving I can’t, that’s for sure.
e_bloc: the depressed answer is "does it matter?"
Revenant77x: we want a solid imprent so depress more
ghizmou: you do choose depression, depression just happens
Texan_Reverend: Ignorance is bliss?
Vinewood_OG: Is this a trick question?
RedAlexxis: What are you reading? A News Corp Newwspaper?
TXC2: TV decreases depression is.....sort of not true :p
public_key_reveal_party: using the bathroom decreases depression, which like... yeah I guess?
Spades_Slicc: You need to plant your taters in depressions then cover with dirt
Inari_Kitsune: I have a meal that I call potato salad. It's a baked potato with sour cream and cheese with a bacon and cranberry spinach salad on top. It sounds strange but it's delicious.
ArdCollider: congratulations!
RedAlexxis: i'll pass
Simriel: Can we do a 100% depression run
Spades_Slicc: Do we think this is a Dirk Strider simulator or a Roxy Lalonde simulator?
TXC2: we do we have two doors to our bedroom? :p
TXC2: *why do we
calculated_uncertainties: this game feels like cH Cameron wrote the game and then episode hijinks did all the visuals, or something
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Need some baked beans and cheese on the spud.
Greendrag13: @TXC2 I don't think we do. I think we tore down the wall between the bedroom and the potato room
public_key_reveal_party: is the broadcast station being run by fish currently?
TXC2: Greendrag13 that's......better?
Greendrag13: @TXC2 As long as our landlord never finds out!
Sethalidos: wait did that say the key to not being constipated was to poop?
TXC2: Greendrag13 indeed
Revenant77x: 2 potats seems good

AMuseOfFirebane: Yeah
e_bloc: number goes up
ArtDecoSunburn: Yes.
TXC2: more potato seems like a winning move
e_bloc: tuber or not tuber, that is the question
Simriel: Could it be potato?
Simriel: She is not potato!
Simriel: RuN!
accountmadeforants: Oh good we're becoming content
CaptainSpam: Not-potatoes will betray you!
SymphonySolstice: :]
TXC2: when "interviewer" youtubers come to your house, that's when you know society has fallen :p
Greendrag13: You were still hungry. Paying double stamina for TWO taters? Excessive
RedAlexxis: It's bland you donkey!
accountmadeforants: Synergizing into maximum overbusiness
RockPusher: Booray, coffee!
MrVirite: Tell them I said hi
SnackPak_: lrrBartleby food
TXC2: taking care of buiness, pooping overtime

ArtDecoSunburn: I assume Cam's delivery is a potato salad.
TXC2: I think he said begal
MrVirite: potato coffee
Jigokuro: Dora Dashere sounds like a pretty cool name
ArtDecoSunburn: Potato bagel, at least?
TXC2: and we're back
TheAinMAP: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/SecretiveClearGoblinCmonBruh-nXGddzysL2ilhWZK
Spades_Slicc: Pretty large bag for coffee and bagel
Wolfstrike_NL: Coffeeeeeeee!
SnackPak_: the perfect lunch
IanAllenBird: nice
RockPusher: Hash browns OP
Sethalidos: is potat
e_bloc: seems appropriate for the stream
ContingentCat: hashbrowns are probably the best thing at Tims now
Greendrag13: My potato of choice today is the Yukon Gold. A favorite of mine for it's buttery vibes
accountmadeforants: And is that because the hash browns are good, or?
gibbousm: yes
Jigokuro: It's not good
RedAlexxis: they don't make a hash of it?
Greendrag13: I've still never seen a Timmy's
e_bloc: after hearing LRR talk about it, I never tried
gibbousm: dunkin isn't actually that bad these days, but they have switch focus to their shitty coffee instead of their shitty donuts
ArdCollider: my town has the worst Dunkin’ on earth and it’s upsetting
PMAvers: I believe Dunkin's quality depends on whether they make the donuts in-house or if they have them shipped in.
ArdCollider: I’m from Boston. I’ve been to a few.
Strebenherz: hey you do you
PMAvers: There's still some that bake their own and they're solid.
RedAlexxis: We have Donut King, it was good, now it's sort of average
iris_of_ether: You didn't even overdo it
Inari_Kitsune: Bosa doughnuts are the best!
RockPusher: Sometimes our bodies try to mug us for no apparent reason
Jigokuro: I have no idea why I'm NOT hungover...
ContingentCat: I wonder if that coffee was made this year
TheAinMAP: Could it have been made last year?
RockPusher: mmmmm, hot brown
e_bloc: I'm guessing its last years coffee
e_bloc: I see we all got there
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: The coffee was never made. It simply manifested.
Greendrag13: @Jigokuro It's been a year since you did all that drinking, how could you still be hung over?
Jigokuro: Boooo
TXC2: FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving a gift from the Gods
RedAlexxis: Coffee does sound good, I am going to do that
ContingentCat: playing the game of life
e_bloc: no hangovers is one of the low-key benefits of soberity
jessicaengle: Rolling the dice
wedge_x: you're probably lucky if it was brewed in 2025
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 From the sound of things, from evil gods
RockPusher: Potato as praxis
Strebenherz: if adam can "play" subnautica for a stream you can have a chill moment all good
public_key_reveal_party: a rousing game of "do not be actively sick on stream"
Strebenherz: take all the time you need dude, hope you feel better
jessicaengle: sergeBongo
Sethalidos: "coffee" lol
ForOhForError: oho
e_bloc: I'm here for an ersatz irl scrandle
jessicaengle: nom nom simulator
RockPusher: Is it a bagel or is it a bagel-shaped bun masquerading as a bagel?
LaconicLad: I like these "choices matter" games. I wonder how your decisions will turn out.
ForOhForError: @e_bloc oh i need to scrandle today
accountmadeforants: All the things a growing boy needs
public_key_reveal_party: @LaconicLad do you mean the game cam is playing, or the game cam is living through?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Add some Marmite for extra salt and B vitamins and you're there
SymphonySolstice: when it's not terrible it hits
e_bloc: it is difficult to make a bagel too bad
dimirious: Gluten
dimirious: Glutwenty
LaconicLad: @public_key_reveal_party this fun breakfast game Cam is playing
TXC2: the riboflavin
jessicaengle: B vitamins and bee vitamins
RockPusher: UK or Antipodean Marmite?
Jigokuro: I love it
Invitare: because North Americans try it by treating it like chocolate spread
RuiFaleiro: I am down with fermented spreads
ContingentCat: Much like vegimite they probably tried it wrong and have been scared off
TXC2: marmite is yeast shit, it's all bad Kappa
dabudder: hi cam and chat. happy 2026

TXC2: also no ties
Strebenherz: no beige?
ContingentCat: presumably their belts match their shoes that are out of shot
RedAlexxis: is that a thing?
e_bloc: I was going to say, surely shoes are a factor
RuiFaleiro: i am slowly blinking in sartorial ignorance
Juliamon: it's a thing in the business sector
e_bloc: valid
ContingentCat: I wouldn't necessarily if wearing black pants
Juliamon: or was, anyway. who knows anymore with techbros
Jigokuro: I have never heard of such color rules
e_bloc: yeah I tend to go with khakis for blue shirts
ContingentCat: I think most their sartorial choices were somewhat strained at least
MrVirite: The correct suit is a denim suit
public_key_reveal_party: I do not have the brainpower for this on a good day, let alone a post party day
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: My secret is picking exactly what I feel like, while letting people know that I'm (actually quite mildly) colourblind.
e_bloc: why does only one person have a laptop
e_bloc: what are they even doing here
RuiFaleiro: designated note-taker?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @e_bloc To take the minutes?
TXC2: my trick is being so poor I have exactly one (1) collared shirt and no jacket :p
Strebenherz: pictures like this with smiling corpos feel like a good demonstration of "smiling in every primate species is a show of aggression. except humans but also sort of humans"
e_bloc: the face of the man behind the handshake betrays the idea that he doesnt know why he is here
TXC2: "no one knows I have pooped myself"
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Laptop Lady sees and agrees.
e_bloc: meanwhile far right has the easy job
dabudder: @e_bloc and yet he still looks inhuman
ContingentCat: why is the table so small for a meeting with 6 people?
MrVirite: Have they agreed to draw 7 red lines?
Strebenherz: that's just a game of archenemy
ForOhForError: That's just a game of league of legends
e_bloc: I had a job interview like that for an entry-level position
Strebenherz: @ForOhForError LUL
e_bloc: I was one of the 'interviewers' the ceo of that company was a complete fucking idiot
ArdCollider: “after 5000 hours of using the bathroom I can’t recommend it because there’s 10 idiots in there, not nine,” etc.
TXC2: "myriad of reasons" = it wasn't in the bible, thus people "thought" them evil :p
IanAllenBird: well
MrVirite: oh wow
Strebenherz: what
RedAlexxis: ded
e_bloc: that sound effect though
SymphonySolstice: this is an experience
RedAlexxis: two philosophies on restarting
RedAlexxis: very short or over elaborate
TXC2: I don't like the idea of god being a Walt Disney looking MF :p

FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I knew someone who developed scurvy through over-reliance on potatoes while at university.
RedAlexxis: buy the exit sign!
dabudder: @wickaboxet erm yeah hes a tuber. a youtuber
dabudder: is youtuber a flagged word
jessicatheblack: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving woof! D=
TXC2: dabudder Gods knows :p
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @jessicatheblack As it turns out, students fresh out of the family home are the most at risk.
jessicatheblack: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving hurm.... being responsible for their own diet for the first time perhaps?
Simriel: Did... this potato game just quote Umberto Echo?
RedAlexxis: yeah, it's pretty solid, jokes are good
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @jessicatheblack Along with (sometimes) limited cooking skills and a lot of distractions.
Gekyouryuu: cam, a thought: as this is a computer game, all potatoes depicted are virtual. therefore, this is a game about vtubers. lrrBEEJ
IanAllenBird: boo
jessicatheblack: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving yeahhhhh... going out on your own can be EXTRA tough when you dont have the money for the school cafeteria
Juliamon: escher3PUN
TXC2: Gekyouryuu booo Kappa
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I do like that the cooking failures grant XP. Quality immersion.
Strebenherz: @Gekyouryuu Bravo also dangit xD
Strebenherz: "VTUBERS"
e_bloc: this game just constantly makes me hear the line 'i ride a hot potato' being sung by david byrne in my brain
Strebenherz: Like.. well done Gek
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @jessicatheblack Yup
Gekyouryuu: :3
ErynTzun: One potato, two potato, three potato, floor.
spethycakes: RootCoin
v_nome: I really should try to get through Foucault's Pendulum...
TXC2: I thought it was Umberto Ecto ?
wickaboxet: cam confirmed it here, gain culture from watching tv
IanAllenBird: oh ok
jessicatheblack: LOL
TXC2: of course you can get culture from TV, I learned everything from the Simpsons and Star trek
jessicatheblack: relatable
TheAinMAP: @richard_ermen Thanks to TikTok, yes.
Strebenherz: technically that's what I do for work (package delivery)
richard_ermen: @TheAinMAP Really? What strange times these are.
Juliamon: richard_ermen you think that's weird? corduroy is coming back in style
jessicatheblack: why were tey called "Devil Crops"?
jessicatheblack: potatoes are great :3
jessicatheblack: that allows you to at least play a video game?
TXC2: jessicatheblack they're not mentioned in the bible
richard_ermen: @Juliamon What? Is the 80s Brown also back in style?
jessicatheblack: AHHHhh
jessicatheblack: interesting
Strebenherz: I think I just got a joke y'all made on panalysts years ago
RockPusher: SINful potatoes
e_bloc: fascinating
RandomTrivia: @Strebenherz pomme de terre (as in terra)
RandomTrivia: (as in ground)
RedAlexxis: Which tracks, what would a 3rd century monk know about South America
richard_ermen: Yeah, peasants feared and hated po-ta-toes at first, until they were tricked into thinking them valuable and good.
JessieImproved: can't eat it if it's not in the bible
Gekyouryuu: Cam, you reminded me of a "Bad Jokes by Jeff" post: A tourist is hiking through the Scottish Highlands and stops to take a drink from a stream. He hears a voice call out "Dinnae drink frae that, meester, it's a' fu' o' coo piss an' shite!". Turning, the hiker sees a Scottish shepherd leaning on a stick, and he replies "I'm terribly sorry, but could you kindly repeat that in the King's English?" And the shepherd says "Two hands sir - cup your two hands together or you'll spill it!"
TXC2: also the forbidden fruit was not an apple, the bible never says what kind of fruit it was
JessieImproved: never mind not being in the Middle East
wickaboxet: I hate it when the quiz show man breaks into the living room and asks questions about plants
richard_ermen: @Gekyouryuu Hehe =)
accountmadeforants: They're still aardappels (Earth Apples) here in the Netherlands here. And frankly they deserve a better name, potatoes are so much more nutritious than apples.
Strebenherz: @RandomTrivia gotcha thank you. but yeah i forget which panalysts. the "what if stuck on mars with potatoes" one
Strebenherz: and i think beej made a pun/joke with that phrase
richard_ermen: This feels like a scenery ripe for some sad violin strings.
RandomTrivia: Strebenherz Thank you for reminding me that I need to rewatch all of the Panalysts :)
Gekyouryuu: @accountmadeforants wait.... is Aardvark a dutch word?
SachielOne: "Pomme de Terreur" is a horror movie that needs to be made.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @accountmadeforants Yeah, but it does take more work to turn a potato into tasty booze than an apple.
accountmadeforants: @Gekyouryuu Possibly? I don't know the Dutch name for it but it certainly has a Dutch ring to it. (Maybe the vark part is Varken, as in pig?)
Strebenherz: @RandomTrivia lrrGibb
accountmadeforants: @accountmadeforants The Dutch name is "Aardvarken", so yes. Yes it is.
accountmadeforants: Earthpig. We're very good at naming things.
TXC2: !break

RedAlexxis: sure
richard_ermen: I don't know, Dr.Strangelove taught me that fluid cycling is how people try to get my vital fluids.
TXC2: Aardvark is Africans, which is Dutch in the same way Quebecois is French

e_bloc: I did not know you could juice a potato
RedAlexxis: huh
e_bloc: well that is dire
Greendrag13: can't believe you got brainjacked
RedAlexxis: what sort of fiend steals knowledge
Mashamino: but my brain juice, I needed that
RedAlexxis: oh yeah, a spyu
realbadatthis_: you wouldn't download a book would you
Mashamino: AngelThump
Greendrag13: oh the 13th? Dang, I missed my borfday
Vinewood_OG: Finally.
e_bloc: soon, the sweet release of death
RedAlexxis: Unless we are dicing it
TacitusVigil: Digitots?
JessieImproved: reading Ed yeah
davehutchin: I like him and Cory Doctorow
ArdCollider: Wired politely pointed out that Ed does PR for AI firms sometimes but I still find him at least entertaining.
Juliamon: I read him occasionally, seems like a smart dude
RedAlexxis: Reading becomes less effective ... READ MORE!
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @davehutchin Yeah, Doctorow doesn't want to lead anybody wrong.
ArdCollider: there’s a reading group for Resisting AI by Dan McQuillian starting on bsky this week. https://bsky.app/profile/ali-alkhatib.com/post/3mbeuvakqx224
goombalax: she's running Doom on them
Mashamino: potwentoes?

Mashamino: :(
goombalax: mood
Greendrag13: Is... there always a potato ninja at the bathroom door?
e_bloc: we are more than the sum of our potatoes
TheAinMAP: jlrrNo
Juliamon: welp... feel bad for *that* neighbor
IanAllenBird: human interaction!
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Yeah, smoking can be quite good for . . . regulation. Terrible for the body, of course.
Simriel: Is someone coming to Take Potato from us?
Vinewood_OG: First thing I noticed when I quit years ago was missing the excuse to go outside every few hours.
ErynTzun: Feeding a family of 5?
IanAllenBird: oh no
saintguard: Has answering the door ever worked out?
RedAlexxis: sod off thief
saintguard: Window-only run
e_bloc: and yet
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I'm lucky - the local Evri guy is someone I chat to outside.
e_bloc: hope springs eternal
TheAinMAP: lrrAWESOME
NotCainNorAbel: lrrFINE
IanAllenBird: pretty good day then
e_bloc: I wish I could say the same

PMAvers: SPUDNET?
TheAinMAP: lrrSPOOP
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Is plant-waifu a basil?
e_bloc: we really need to introduce a barter economy
Mashamino: uhh
ContingentCat: come back with a warrent
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: A critical success at making dinner really can be a nice boost.
Firewhiskers: The Termintaters
Mashamino: @Firewhiskers dolphinClap
e_bloc: giving is its own reward
CaptainSpam: These potatoes MAY rise up in a robot rebellion, we're not sure yet. Anyway, enjoy!
TheAinMAP: escher3PUN
Greendrag13: Master and Cam-mander
loufghyslaufey: Who this? And why are they your houseplant?
e_bloc: the truth is relative the truth is subjective
loufghyslaufey: Still learned? Improbable.
loufghyslaufey: Right?
Mashamino: whomst?
CaptainSpam: INTRUDER
JKBalch: lrrCREEPL lrrCREEPR lrrCAMERON
e_bloc: truly, a life well lived
CaptainSpam: A life in servitude to potato.
JKBalch: do it
e_bloc: so many potatoes. lost forever, like tears in the rain
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: As sinister as the spuds are becoming, I'm still of the opinion that it's a wholesome game about outlasting a period of severe depression.
Mashamino: theboxDoubledab
TheAinMAP: benginDab
Firewhiskers: Cursed exchange rate
SymphonySolstice: rolling in it
kusinohki: knowledge inflation??
Greendrag13: if cooking failure never loses potatoes, cooking is... unfailable?
JKBalch: We can try the honey potatoes without fear
richard_ermen: Knowflation?
goombalax: that makes baked pots free\
e_bloc: we learn to use every part of the potato
terribleplan: Infinite baked potato glitch
richard_ermen: Potanimator?
richard_ermen: Or Termitato?
RockPusher: ♫ Welcome to the machine… ♫
Juliamon: oh no
Carlioo: did you get scammed by the evil robots?
e_bloc: would you download a patot
e_bloc: *potato
terribleplan: Oh no, not the evil robots. They seemed so trustworthy.
TheAinMAP: benginRip
SymphonySolstice: Rip
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: "I forgot to cook!" Been there, man. Been there.
ArdCollider: F
GedankenPalast_: o7
CaptainSpam: The robots did nothing to save you! The jerks.
ErynTzun: bbirb7
terribleplan: No waste on failure though
KeytarCat: He cooked
Greendrag13: The Spooky Spud is back
e_bloc: game is good
ContingentCat: uhhhh
Greendrag13: Ooooh, its the Underground market!
e_bloc: dont ask questions you dont want to know the answer to
JKBalch: Maybe we use the doll to "rubber duck" new potato recipes
RedAlexxis: retain for value
e_bloc: - me to half the books on my bookshelf
KeytarCat: Cam Gasped and my stream crashed LUL
Juliamon: We're not falling for this again
SymphonySolstice: robots vanquished
Mashamino: for... the greater good
PMAvers: The Potatoes have been upgraded to Windows 11
e_bloc: does she mean cribbage
KeytarCat: I like the neighbor
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: The pseudo-RPGM style works well with the non-chibi player character a d more flexible screen composition. "I'll make my own RPGM. With blackjack and hookers."
Carlioo: potatoes are vegetables that grow in the earth
ErynTzun: Boomer shooter
Carlioo: thank you video game
KeytarCat: wait, she was talking?
WiJohn: Fee potat!
NotCainNorAbel: lrrWOW
Juliamon: Didn't shower enough...
Mashamino: D:
SymphonySolstice: dang
IanAllenBird: rip
ContingentCat: the eternal struggle
WiJohn: Didn't shower because you wanted to read? Definite nerd problems!
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: *orders a waterproof e-reader*
IanAllenBird: it would help if you had a peephole
SymphonySolstice: go for the knowledge upgrades too methinks
ErynTzun: The door doesn't have a peep hole so we can't know when not to answer
e_bloc: it is quaint
Gekyouryuu: so, I went to steam to see how much this is. a) it's on sale for less than $2 atm, b) steam says "similar to other games you've played" and the game it compares this to is "Golf with your friends" for some reason? o.O
e_bloc: we can play the slots?
RockPusher easily caves and pays the 3 bucks for the game
JKBalch: Nice amount of potatoes plucked
ContingentCat: about 1 in 3 days yeaaah
Carlioo: rip
CaptainSpam: Wow. Rude, game.
ErynTzun: Game is $1.59 in the US rn
e_bloc: I'm sold
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: It was just sold for that. >.>
ContingentCat: it has a charm to it
Firewhiskers: Yeah, I'm curious to see where this goes.
e_bloc: I think the humor is well put
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: "It me!"
Mashamino: yeah...
SymphonySolstice: it is certainly a mood
e_bloc: I go days without speaking to another human
SkylerRingtail: "I wonder if anything good can happen [...]" - Me too, Cam, me too.
Simriel: Sometimes when you open the door there is Bagel tho
SymphonySolstice: only answer door when expecting it
IanAllenBird: I feel the crucial difference is whether you know in advance
ErynTzun: So only answer the door when you are expecting someone
Juliamon: Sometimes it doesn't need to be good.
ErynTzun: otherwise Brain Drain!
Greendrag13: I fear you got taxed a lot by stalling out the cooking boosts as long as you did. Those base baked taters had a Stamina tax on 'em
Simriel: I opened the door once today and there was Pizza
Juliamon: It just needs to be there when you need it.
KeytarCat: This chord progression is sending me
SnackPak_: yeah, it's almost that
KeytarCat: It is
ErynTzun: oh yeah, it is
spethycakes: fugue state jesscapSmugin
SnackPak_: go off Cameron
IanAllenBird: I'm here to hear talking
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Rambling about games as much as playing them is exactly what I look for when relaxing.

KeytarCat: The reason Pachabel works is because it's layered really cool!
Simriel: The canon in D is also Basic, but not Bad
Simriel: Like Potato#
ContingentCat: that makes sense yeah
r10pez10: pachabel's canon? do you mean Graduation by Vitamin C

PMAvers: Honestly I'm impressed that he keeps falling off the end of the bed.

SymphonySolstice: potatomaxxing
ErynTzun: It's a Trap!
InconsiderateHat: Shan't.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I like the story of a ruler trying to introduce potatoes, having trouble, and hitting on the idea of setting up potato farms with bad guards and telloing people
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: *telling people they couldn't have the spuds
Strebenherz: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving yeah, history be wild
Greendrag13: As long as your mood is in a safe place. Books be boosting depression on us
SymphonySolstice: Yea thats probably right
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @Greendrag13 Therapists are mad keen on Ursula LeGuinn.
Greendrag13: Is there a value in looking at the painting?
Greendrag13: Willpower seems to live nearly capped, and the painting costs a stamina and boosts depression. Is it cursed?
Sundrall: ISTJ is Logistician I think
ErynTzun: Introverted, Observant, Thinking, and Judging
r10pez10: ITYC is wheeler

RockPusher: I assume the dolls show up in there
RockPusher: The survival guide and potats show up in there

ErynTzun: Max Potat
mrMorphius: The core concept of brotato as well
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @JKBalch Right? There's so much good stuff in the budget, intentionally short experience market.
Rourke9: hello everyone! hope test has gone ok so far ❤️
SymphonySolstice: very good potat
Strebenherz: potato
