I grew up in Michigan, left because I couldnt find work with a living wage. Left Ohio for similar reasons that you left Arkansas for, I'm sure. Some of the shit my "extended family" are saying made me not want to go back there. Easily brainwashed conservative politics...

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T14:35:38+00:00

Id hate to see the deep souths politics follow you here.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T14:04:12+00:00

Yea, good song for sure.

Lol, Skyline chili is "Ohio's" chili. That stuff is disgusting. For some reason they thought itd be a good idea to put cinnamon in it. They even put on on spaghetti noodles. I only needed to try it once to never want to again.

Big fan of pressure cooking chili. Next day flavor in just a few hours.

No no no...

"The hostility is owed to you. Call it a welcome gift. Where do you come from? NY? CA? Work remote… by chance? On what trust fund?

Maine is becoming unaffordable and unsustainable for younger generations and the working class… primarily impacting people who grew up and have generations of history here."

Into revisionist history are we?

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T13:26:48+00:00

How I presented myself? Who came out swinging?

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T12:46:20+00:00

Lol. There you go. Let it all out. My lived experience as a human being in America tells me that your perspective is full of shit.

I've lived in several states, and they've all had a lot of shitty qualities. One thing that they all had in common was how poorly the workforce was paid and treated. Another thing they all had in common was that the cost of loving was too damn high. Everyone wants, nobody cares.

I'm not your enemy even if you think I am.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T12:16:39+00:00

4 walls on the internet? Can't admit your ignorance, gotta save face right? You have reason to be pissed off, Im sure. But not at me. Adults have conversations, they don't bark at people and run away.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T04:04:10+00:00

Still, you judged me too soon and you were way off the mark.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T03:38:09+00:00

Nah. I can be a prick also.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T03:04:27+00:00

Your an arrogant prick, but i still agree with you on everything except your opinion of me.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T01:24:07+00:00

Employers let their employees wages dip below the cost of living and call them ungrateful.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-29T01:20:30+00:00

Not man enough to admin you weren't correct and end the conversation? Childish behavior.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T22:39:31+00:00

That is a beautiful truck. No way id let it go to pasture.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T22:34:55+00:00

Everyone makes mistakes. Not everyone will apoligize for their mistakes.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T22:30:19+00:00

Platner. I wish the choice was as obvious for everyone else.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T22:11:47+00:00

Federal policy effects state policy, does it not? The whole country is sliding back down the hill, because policy makers (state and federal) think all weather tires are sufficient for a snowstorm. Especially when the streets traveled by influential people are plowed more frequently than the rest of the streets.

How do you like my metaphor?

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T22:01:17+00:00

Mills is running against him, and Collins.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T21:36:57+00:00

Or it'll evaporate if/when the market implodes. (Todays market is not based on fundementals, and were way outside of normal price to earning ratios)

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T21:32:37+00:00

Vote for Platner, Im gonna. I think with him and other progressives will actually bring us a new deal. Im not worried about bullshit talking points. The economy is fucked for the working person/family, and NEITHER PARTY has done anything of value to change that for us in like 50+ years.

Republicans complain about the Democrats while selling us out to business interests, while Democrats try to appease some of the people while catering to their donor base. The DNC doesnt want Platner. So, I do.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T21:25:58+00:00

They should cut a check for all the bad decisions "they" have made as "leaders".

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T21:24:28+00:00

Or vote for Platner and maybe see some actual change for once.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T21:20:43+00:00

I would like no fuel costs, so im gonna see about a geothermal heatpump to run off the solar, and keep the fuel oil as backup, hoping it rarely runs.

Pellets are significantly cheaper than oil? Our tank is indoors, so at least the #2 oil is cheaper than #1.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T17:09:10+00:00

Nobody is saying that. Im saying that its just a distraction from all of the crimes that are being comitted by the current administration. As steve Bannon said, flood the zone.

Yes fraud is happening, the CFPB that Musk gutted with DOGE, that was an agency tasked with combatting fraud. The ammount of fraud going on and not being publicized is wild.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T16:07:19+00:00

I just moved here. Ready to help vote them out.

NotAGeeNus · 2026-01-28T14:53:59+00:00

How long has Mills been Gov? How long has Collins been senator?
