Newsmax doesn’t even try to do real journalism. It’s just straight propaganda. So of the two it is far worse. But that’s like deciding which poison to drink

I will be curious to see which season I have seen before. I know I have seen some with Mary Berry. But definitely not the first one

Some of the contestants seemed familiar but I think I just saw them on holiday episodes
kat, ghost of helenruthsghost (@chaoskat.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes. It is charming! There are people standing outside the tent watching. And in one episode Paul rolls up his sleeves and shows a contestant how to knead a very sticky dough! Now he would never.
kat, ghost of helenruthsghost (@chaoskat.bsky.social) reply parent
And I am now 100% sure I have never watched season 1
kat, ghost of helenruthsghost (@chaoskat.bsky.social) reply parent
The best thing about watching the first season of Great British Bake Off is I realized the reason they are in a tent is bc in the first season they traveled around. I had no idea and always wondered. First episode was in The Cotswalds and the second is in Scotland.

We're at the stage that if you have a better idea of what people need to do, then you have to do it. And maybe it starts with a couple of people and grows. YOU really have to do it.

Oof. I remember those days. Luckily, a cancer scare leading to a hysterectomy has freed me from those expectations and I am definitely not mad about it!

I wanted a goldendoodle bc they are super cute but I guess they can be a bit of a nightmare. If we ever get another dog, and hopefully not for a while, I need a lazy one!

I’m glad he such a good experience with his little buddy. Yeah, I think it is good for them to have pets. But we definitely don’t need any new ones rn.

We are shelter only animal adopters! These are shelter puppies she is looking at. Personally, I don’t want any, but if we ever get another one I’d prefer a senior dog.

Aw. That’s great! They are good dogs, extremely loyal. We had one for a long time which I think is why mom wanted another one. But we aren’t up to that level of activity now. And i swore I would never get another one lol

The more I think about training a new dog the more I realize I need to be less critical of our current dog lol (he does bark at ghosts)

We are allowed to have chickens as long as none are roosters. And yes, this is one reason why I don’t want another dog. The one we have leaves the chickens alone and I do not look forward to having to train a new one that chickens are friends not food

Yesterday she found a border collie online. I was able to say no pretty firmly bc they are extremely active (our senior dog who sleeps all day is the right speed for us lol) So I said, maybe something like a pug or a basset hound. So guess what she is showing me today? Yep. Basset hounds
kat, ghost of helenruthsghost (@chaoskat.bsky.social)
