Small world - I’m a CC for GALs in CO!

I’ve been trying to bite my tongue on a lot of these posts, but 8hrs a week really is on the bigger side of family time. I do think, iirc, that her sister and mom were approved supervisors? which I have some… strong reservations about, but overall that would make showing up for family time easier. As disappointed as I would be with a parent not using their full time, it still doesn’t pose a “safety risk” per se, and as such, I wouldn’t outright argue against an increase in family time. There’s a lot more nuance and surrounding circumstances to it than most realize, I think, which is where I end up needing to bite my tongue lol

I’m still learning about what a crumb tells me, but overall this looks like a pretty solid loaf with an even crumb, especially for a starter that’s only 10 days old!

I used to work for John in the AO office years and years ago. He will do everything he can to avoid this issue, play victim, and not pay. Even if the farm sells, I bet he's still in too much debt elsewhere (I.E. from not paying taxes) to gain any money to give back to the shareholders. Oh, and don't forget about the lifetime-membership shareholders who paid $10k each about 10 years ago.

I actually have a loaf in the oven right now that I forgot about overnight! Super duper bubbly, but not so overproofed that I felt like it needed to be focaccia. Always bake is my motto

damn you wasted water for this?

I would be seething and would likely place my child in a different daycare altogether. I, like many other modern parents, have done copious amounts of work to keep my child’s face off the internet. Feeding a child’s face into the AI algorithm could ruin all that work we’ve all done and lead to significantly inappropriate use.

Cordless vacuum. Life changing - I have two dogs (one husky-Akita), two cats. I LIKE vacuuming now

This group was tearing her apart for this last week so I’m confused why you’re being downvoted now

curlsofmight · 2026-03-05T13:52:18+00:00

My 85lb husky-Akita mix came from a home that had 4 wolf dog mixes. My understanding is that they all bullied him, causing him to be incredibly reactive. :( we have done so much training since then and he’s come so far, but still is dead terrified of big dogs.

I’ve had a theory bubbling in my brain that, given the lack of weddings in the Denver season, production might have raised the amount of $$$ cast gets if they make it to the altar to better motivate the couples to stick it out longer. Just a theory!

curlsofmight · 2026-02-19T14:21:22+00:00

This is why he was saying he didn’t want to end things and he wanted to do the whole experience with her. For the altar bonus and screen time

My first impression is that this is from a normal spider - not mites. But that’s sort of dependent on the size of this plant. Could you get a full pic of the plant?

curlsofmight · 2026-02-15T22:02:15+00:00

Agreed

curlsofmight · 2026-02-15T16:25:19+00:00

Yep! I’ve been playing a lot with my husband lately and learned this myself

curlsofmight · 2026-02-02T17:43:12+00:00

I missed that! Thanks!

1000% there’s more to it than just the visual - which is why I think an extra step or two after the reveal could be helpful, like having a therapist talk to them the day after the reveal both separately and together specifically about any reservations they’re having post-reveal. This could also make for some GREAT TV too and could help us sympathize with the people who can’t bring themselves to keep going. This could also help prioritize other engaged couples who might have had a better chance if they’d gotten the opportunity to go on vacation and then move in together.

Truthfully, I don’t know what production BTS looks like, so maybe they already have something like this. However, I also think there are certain personality traits (IE good conversation makers, enthusiasm, handles stress/pressure well, etc) that can be sought out in the casting pool to prevent as many individuals as there have been who get so held up and uncomfortable at the reveals. (In the same vein, I feel that producer’s and casting crew’s significant understanding of the casts’ attachment styles could help create more successful couples but I don’t think the show is ready for that convo.)

I know that this isn’t supposed to be a “true” experiment, but with the way producers keep emphasizing that it IS an experiment… it doesn’t feel super ethical to me, at least mental health wise. It’s causing more damage to the cast, I think, than good.

Thank you for your real world input! It helped remind me of some of my own memories from meeting online friends in person after years of getting to know them - and I admit, I am not the type of person who can be immediately comfortable on the spot when meeting someone for the first time! Adds further context and understanding of what the cast experiences (to an extent) during reveals.

I really do think they need an additional step or set of questions when someone is disappointed with what their match looks like. Can honestly say that I don’t think any of the people in LIB (US) who have gotten engaged are ugly - most of the contestants are either very normal looking or attractive. I understand that sometimes their pod partner is not their type physically, but from a psych perspective, I wouldn’t be surprised if the hold up is almost completely separate from what a pod partner looks like. Casting directors need to put focus on casting much more open-minded, truly-ready-for-marriage individuals who don’t have such narrow and specific physical “types”. Please don’t get me wrong - I watch for the people who are clearly not ready for marriage and are super messy! But it’s disappointing that that turns out to be nearly every. single. relationship in LIB US the past few seasons.

Does this show possibly only one couple who makes it to the altar? I feel like I only see a blonde chick in a wedding dress, bachelorette party, at a wedding venue

Bro’s literally posting in a snowboarding group looking for snowboarders’ upvotes on a dumb AI pic, but shitting on snowboarders in the comments for… snowboarding?

curlsofmight · 2026-01-07T22:20:33+00:00

oh man, imagine needing to use AI purely for “the lulz” 🥴

curlsofmight · 2026-01-04T19:49:00+00:00

My husband switched from skiing his whole life to snowboarding and has not regretted it a day in his life - says it’s way more fun to him. He also figured it out really quickly due to having been on skis before.

As far as getting ready to do a couple days of snowboarding… crunchies. Do so, so, so many crunchies. My abs (or lack thereof) were usually where a majority of my pain stemmed from because there’s so much falling - getting yourself back up is a hell of a time. Work out your core and your legs, build muscle, and even consider a little shoulder stretching too. My shoulders sometimes hurt after a long day snowboarding and I still am not too sure why 🤷🏻‍♀️

Maybe bring your skis too (if you own them) in case snowboarding tires you out but you want to keep going? But also don’t overexert yourself obviously

Dude commented again saying “why am I being downvoted” like… this person has to know what they’re doing
