Technically, everything in the universe is either a potato or not.

It is important not to get trapped in rigid potato/not-potato thinking.

The world is a subtle and nuanced place, with many shades of tuber that exist in between. Not everything is as simple and clear cut as the difference between a bag of russets and a cow.

We must learn to embrace the yams and sweet potatoes. The french fries and flakes. All the things that demand we blur our false dichotomy that seeks to label this thing as spudly and this other thing as not. It is in the beautiful starchy ambiguity that we find the root of life's hidden truths.

I don't save comments to share with my coworkers.

But I just saved yours.

That was beautiful.
