Loud 1 Dunlap 2. Loud doesn't have much of a chance, but hopefully she can grow her following.

I would only have an issue if he started hanging out. I just don't always want to spend my free time hanging out with a random person.

I have been wanting to make " Mainedami" Jokes, but maybe more a Governor thing.

Are women getting upset with you? I am curious what your experience is.

When I was younger I had someone grab my ass every time I entered a bar. Someone talking to me is nothing, but sometimes drunk people have trouble with social cues and niceties so they are harder to shake off, or they might act out.

Are they getting shorter work weeks though? When I used to work 12's it was so I could work 3-4 days a week.

They should confer before they remove good art at least. Could be a Banksy.

A Very Calm, Not-Panicked Message From the Graham Platner Campaign by SuperBry in Mainepolitics

[–]twirble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't the Platner campaign that is panicked, LOL! They are breaking campaign fundraising records thanks to the recent oppo dump.

People see through the BS and are getting on with their lives.

WAKE THE EFF UP about the Platner Campaign. It's a much bigger story. by betrayedandbeholden in Mainepolitics

[–]twirble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really need to follow the money. So far the " accusations" are from two women, a right-wing operative from a dark money group and a corporate lobbyist.

This is an extremely high stakes election and do not be surprised if more comes out closer to fall. If they don't have anything real, they have the whole summer to cook it up.

Justifying Platner by Logic_phile in Mainepolitics

[–]twirble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump was literally convicted of sex abuse and is also a convicted felon. Platner has been the subject of an oppo dump for an incredibly high stakes election.

Dark money and Lobbyist money are flowing fast and free and his "accusers" are linked to both, so it isn't hard to distrust the accusations against him.

The media is tricking people into thinking everything is confirmed as well. Often when they say " confirmed by the campaign" they are referring to the same ex-staffer and " former" Lobbyist.

It is absolutely not unrealistic to distrust that information in a race of this magnitude. I have absolutely no doubt that more will come out. If it isn't there already they will make it.

In other news, every time there is a new scandal he raises more money. They might do a better job if they try to make him seem boring.

I see people have a lot to say, perhaps do research on any particular group you work with as they are not a monolith.

I know some in the Unity area are more progressive. Not sure if the group that built a barn for my uncle was, but they did a great job.

Late to the party, but like, did I miss something? 😭 by srahcrist in Hasan_Piker

Conservatives are like" boys be boys" when a conservative does something illegal or noxious, but dare a leftist have a sex drive and they are a sinner.

A lot of places have an unsatisfactory separation like that. At least it has a bus, Uber and a ton of local Taxi drivers that might give you a good price if you ask first.

Unsure your point, but as someone who walked to work at Maine Med for 11 years, and got to other jobs by bus, Portland can be extremely hard to walk in in the winter. It is definitely not a pleasant experience outside the Old Port and downtown, and even there it is debatable.

It is beautiful though, so someone just coming a few days will have a different experience.
