Reply to how to deal with winter? by same-shit-everyday
Go start your car and run it indefinitely until climate change takes hold.
Barring that try and find some winter activities be they indoors at a 2nd location or outdoors.

I've never been to a strip club because the whole thing seems strange to me but I'm pretty confident most places don't let them go bottomless. That's like a pretty universal thing, yeah?

I think PTs or whatever the fuck it's called now is legally a strip club. But your results may vary from what I've heard.

Probably a socially awkward like 20 year old or a government deep fake.

Nothing really can be done other than emergency preparation. Get food/water/blankets/battery packs/lamps/etc. you can deal with it. Some people resort to buddy heaters indoors, but remember they need good ventilation and a monoxide detector.
Like everyone else said. It's wet snow and ice. Also mind you these are real people repairing the grid. Working tirelessly and they are risking dangerous conditions to go quickly in restoration or determining the issue.
Just come up with a plan and treat it like a weather emergency. It sucks but that's all you can do. When I lived in NH I list power for like 4 days once during an ice storm.
Really its just part if living here.

People act like it's some holy drink from the state. But it's trash. Save your time and actually drink something you enjoy.

I'm a fan of cabelas up in Scarborough. They have a decent camping section with a bunch of cast iron.

Reply to comment by New-Work-139 in What places on the best place to work list are actually best places to work by [deleted]
I've for mega corps as a manager and now a tiny company. Both have strengths and weaknesses. It's baffling to come from that environment and see the lack of tools or standardization for example. It feels like things are being run backwards.
That said there's less stress, less micro management, people are generally nicer, you can reach the person you need without 18 fucking middle manager and gate keepers, you don't waste half your day on lectures and seminars on the newest buzzword campaign.
Smaller companies generally are better but have their own set of pitfalls.

I don't know much about the program but I worked in banking for a while at one of the larger and notoriously shitty banks but we kept getting transplants from one of the ones that has a "best place to work" sign. York maybe. I actually forget what one it was. All I remember is the horror stories about their corporate rules

Globally Hannaford has better prices. But Shaws has it's place. They have a much nicer bakery usually and a better international section. The meat is usually better amd the produce is hit or miss depending on the Shaws. Shaws has better sales but they're sometimes obtuse and same goes for their rewards program. Where the hannaford one isn't annoying and the sales don't require you to pay super close attention.

Why? What benefit does this give you. It's an easy solution and it saves you money. It's not some government cabal that steals your information.

I can't say about maine but I can say about the south and parts of NH in the distant past. You'd buy highway tokens. These tokens would go into a machine that would open the gate once the token was deposited into a hopper.

You understand the coins would need to get sorted and verified and then brought to a bank while the deposit is prepared. There isn't a magic pipe from the machine to the bank.
The ez pass speeds up traffic, it's more accurate, it's safer and more convenient. Sincerely I have no idea what your hold up is or no sympathy to your arguments. It's not some big government ploy to steal your information. It's just a tool to travel faster and easier.

Reply to Looking for Grants by backbaybilly
The USDA has a few that I used to write for a somewhat similar circumstance. Their micro grants for food security may help or they have one for fresh fruit and veggies.
Maine grant watch, grants.gov and chamber of commerce if you have access are all powerful tools.
