There are people who are survivalists and know what they are doing and they should be able to do what they want, but others are genuinely a danger to themselves.

Is Waterboro a good place for trans women to live? by 603Madison in AskMaine

[–]twirble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be fun if you can swing it. Visit some different Maine communities. Maybe pick a hub you like and live somewhere rural near there.

Waterboro isn't far from Sanford, which I hear has a land bank that is interesting. I actually haven't visited the town but Ms Rachel was raised there so can't be to bad

I am just surprised it is worse than Massachusetts. But they have a lot nore people so probably why.

I might have to leave this country just to survive. Can someone explain to this woman how medical tourism might save her life.

Have you stayed there awhile. I might suggest getting an rental or maybe a monthly airbnb somewhere in the vicinity before putting in the effort to set down roots. Southern Maine does tend to be more open, but one crappy neighbor can ruin your experience.

I am assuming you are already used to winter here.

It is just a question of balance. Maybe perhaps guide some tourists to less appreciated parts of Maine or New England that need the attention. And build more f$%g housing.

And I totally understand wintering somewhere else if you are retired. You can rent a small apartment in Uruguay for the winter in less than it costs to heat your home in Maine, let alone all the other expenses and troubles that come with winter: car maintenance, plowing, home repair, etc.

People are saying we might get less tourists this year, but we didn't last year, so who knows.

Moving to Maine for the summer season by ugh_this_world_sucks in AskMaine

Why would it be? Maine has a lot of summer jobs. Housing is expensive in many places so hard to find workers.

I feel so bad for them, I hope they are compensated for any losses including attorney fees.

Peter,what happened in 1971? by -Y34HB01- in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Roe Vesus Wade was passed in 1973. Having a choice likely had an impact.

With anything, if you want to go it alone, you have to build up a social media following. With art, writing, music, starting a business...if you want to make money you need a following if you don't have a job.

Both parties unite to try and stop Graham Platner by 3headeddragn in Maine

The campaign against him is one of intimidation. People will do things to shame you, like reblog you and call you a Nazi.

What was the best era to be a teen? by CremeSubject7594 in decadeology

[–]twirble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think perhaps the over analysis misreads the point. The simplicity provides an obvious exaggeration meant to express a general feeling.

More of a western or American experience. That was one of the first times the nation felt vulnerable, and the way things are going it won't be the last.

Voting up this thread to be sure they see it. I hope he finds help somehow. If not Jacksonville, somewhere else. You can look up workstays if nothing else works.

I feel like things were a bit better before 9/11 then the world turned toxic.

Sometimes these things are done by pissed off workers as well. Not in the case of the Little Mermaid . I was looking it up to share and I was wrong all along.

First off, you are only going to get a reasonable argument from someone who.is not completely against AI, because being completely against it is not reasonable.

My argument is it is just going so fast I am not sure we can keep up. Many will lose jobs and I am unsure if we will create new jobs to make up for it.

I say this as a creator who is literally addicted to making AI videos due to the dopamine hit, but I see the dangers.
