It sounds cliche, but most people can find someone to love within 50 miles of where they live. It’s not a hard rule, or fair one, but it’s a consistent one.

So op doesn’t have to argue, “some examples” was said. Please offer other examples, it will help elevate the conversation. I know woman who enjoy movies, are foodies, fishing, hiking, etc.

It’s a silent assassin too. So many times have I heard “these aren’t spicy” while they’re mowing down on a fist full and then BAM!

Bad or old wiring? You can always rent a kilowatt from a library to check appliances to see how much they are drawing power. Could check breakers (on/off) to see what’s drawing power.
Could be a sign of a dying well pump if you have one. Or a sump pump.

There are hundreds of examples of states with high density, low income housing. Market forces abound, it’s in the rental industries best interest to keep supply just below demand. They also don’t want regular housing, condos, or upward mobility reducing their share of the market. Guaranteed housing, like guaranteed UBI may be the future, but it’s going to be four walls, a ceiling, and a door. That may be fine for some but it will drive others insane.

I think we should poll who wants to live in a 10 story building. Amenities, functions, sizes, and other features need to be met or it’s just a developers wet dream and does nothing to help people.

Start a family, make your own friends. You’ll need an appropriate partner willing to assist in raising 20-30 broodlings.

Looks like diesel is more refined too, but strangely can cause issues with your furnace.

Uh I’m not sure about diesel, but kerosene may be the better route. Diesel could frig up your oil atomizer. Not an oil technician.

For some reason I read that as “I’m already finding their door dash lunch deliveries on my doorstep!” Was like “wait a min…” then reread your post.

Ding ding ding ding…. This is the winning answer. If it doesn’t make money in a capitalist society than it doesn’t get done by a private company. If people want trains they need to legislate for it. Get support. Find one city or community that is pro mass transit and make it a model for other cities to follow. Boston spent $$$$$ on the big dig, imagine if implementing a train or other mass transit solution at a fraction of the cost. It would turn heads pretty quickly.

NJ is a smaller state than NY. There is more rural area in NY. There are a lot of differences between the states, I’m sure there are plenty more than what I’ve mentioned.

What is more likely?
A. Maine is a shitty climate for children being abused and so therefore has a significantly higher rates of abuse than any other state.
B. Maine reports more child abuse cases per capita than any other state.
Also, is this a city thing? A rural thing? These numbers matter because it determines the solutions. Throwing money at every school or community is a waste of resources when this is specific to a certain location, demographic, economic region, etc.

If the sign is within the right of way for municipal roads are they in fact public property? Does that mean I own those signs? Can I do what I want with them? Who is responsible for that sign on public property?

So don’t attack the act of doing but the act of producing said items. Legislate rules that the materials must be made in Maine. The material must be burnable, recyclable, and reusable. Mailers must be mailed from within the state to primary residences.
If anything goes these damned things would be printed on styrofoam boards. Legislation that is sounds good or is a net benefit for the state is more likely to pass and become law.
