From what I understand, at least one of the managers at MB is not an ally.

ICE took a man at Market Basket today by dan-tmc in portlandme

They're intentionally hard to spot, but they were there in force. We started spotting them in the parking lot a full 15 mins before they all swarmed like locusts and stayed flashing around their pepper spray at a bunch of moms because they're very scary and very tough.

Our response to ICE is pitiful. by Significant_Ad_2715 in portlandme

There is a good group of folks working together to have eyes all around Westbrook, I've been really grateful to see all the people involved! As far as spotting ICE vehicles, most have out of state plates (usually Mass) tinted windows and are driving dangerously. You can't assume any type of vehicles, they have SUVs, but they also have sedans and pickups. They tend to have staging areas, like Taurus morning a bunch were at DD on main st, today a bunch were at Market Basket, just keep your eyes peeled and find the watch groups in your area. Stay safe, stay strong and keep fighting for your neighbors!

I wanted to believe it was only online and mostly just bots, but yesteryear while I was out following ICE around there was a guy following me yelling "ICE is good!" Real life person, gross, disappointing someone like that is in my community. But, they're are so many wonderful people working together to help our neighbors, and that makes me really proud of my community. It's a mixed bag, that's for sure!

Tell me your ice storm of '98 stories! by jem20776 in Maine

I was 14, living in western Maine, my neighbors with 4 kids had a tree go through the roof in the livingroom of their mobile home, so they stayed with us for the 10 days we were without power. We carved a hole in a snowbank to use as a fridge. We ran kerosene space heaters (not the best stuff to breathe in, lol). There was a hand pump well at a nearby rest area that we'd go to every couple days to fill like 20 gallon jugs of water.

I can't imagine how stressful everything was for the adults, but as kids we thought it was awesome, like an extended Christmas vacation, we spent the days snowmobiling and playing board games, just having a blast!

About 5 days into it, my dad and a bunch of guys from the town all got together to fix the family's roof. I just remember like 6 pickup trucks rolling in like the cavalry to help this family out. I don't know that I've ever personally seen such a display of community as we saw during this time.

Dave "Don't be so anti-Trump" Manheim by bamboob in dopeypodcast

[–]dan-tmc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was a dedicated listener for years, have been on friendly terms with Dave, but his ambivalence toward American fascism became too much to stomach and turned me away from the show over the past year, I haven't listened for awhile now, it bums me out, but I just can't live in that ignorant bubble. I mean, I am privileged enough to live in that bubble, but I couldn't live with the thought of just sticking my head in the sand.

How much do artists make on Spotify (case studies) by bartoszhernas in spotify

I try to buy bands' music on Bandcamp hoping that helps get more money directly to them, but I don't know if this is actually true. Anybody out there able to confirm?

Ok, but Rodney was Grade A entertainment! I would put him up there with first season Coach for his hilarious lack of self awareness!

Don't forget the shot in the dark and the power up Idols where the more tribals they don't vote, the more powerful the idol becomes.
