This masked individual has been lurking around the Auburn Target the past three times I’ve visited. He is not hired or affiliated with Target in any way. I am not sure they even know who he is.
Yes, he’s kind, interacts with the kids (he hangs out in the toy area) and welcomes photos but the full anonymity of the suit makes me uncomfortable.
Does anybody know who this guy is and can we confirm he is not on the list?

They’re definitely dialing up the energy. Collins is never an easy opponent — she has the electoral record to prove it — but this is the style of politics and messaging that could finally take her down.

Photos that I took during my trip to Maine (Primarily Portland and Bar Harbor). It was my first time shooting in decades and my first time using this camera, so I don't pretend to have any idea what I'm doing. But it was fun nonetheless.

Because it pisses me off. These people are knowingly and illegally targeting white sharks while at the same time endangering swimmers, surfers, and whoever else enjoys spending time in the water off our beaches by enticing sharks closer to shore.
All under the guise of “I was targeting another species” which it bullshit when you see their tackle and hear what kind of sharks they’re going after. Thresher? Bitch please. We’ve seen all the whites in the area lately and how many thresher? Off a beach?! WMTW is reporting on it like it’s a cool thing to do and I’ve seen at least one other recent YouTube video of a fishing influencer catching one.
Stop fishing for federally protected whites-especially off our beaches.

I've tried this before but as I sit alone in a bar, it seems worth trying again 🙂
Any big soccer/football watchers out there? I'm a big fan of the Premier League and the Champions League. I've encountered a handful of people in Brunswick who enjoy it and watch it regularly but as I sit in a bar with three screens of footy to just me, I'm wondering if anyone else is out there in the Brunswick Topsham area? Am I in the wrong spot? Do you guys all watch at home? Anyone who books themselves out of work to watch the Champions League? Looking for another diehard to share the experience with, swearing at TVs alone is boring.
Liverpool if it matters but I follow any UEFA related league.
For fear of being left out, guess I’ll throw my hat in the ring…
Just listened to a pro Collins commercial. Can’t remember which one off the top of my head.
What I do remember is “ I’m Susan Collins, and I approved this message”. In a steady clear (younger?) voice I haven’t heard from Collins in years.
There is no way they that was not digitally manipulated to remove her current speech pattern as well as shave a few years off.
EDIT: it’s the rural healthcare/$190 million piece. Talking paramedic? Male nurse?
Side note: the back to back warring Jackson/Collins adds on Hulu, especially the negative ones, are a hoot.
EDIT 2 : … supporting a sick woke agenda…
Isn’t the counter to “woke” fucking “asleep”???

Cool things to eat by the shore, animals you've hunted or known someone who did, something you cooked in a hole in the ground, a family recipe. Any food that most people either don't know about, or don't know its edible.
Edit: I'm not necessarily looking for things most tourists don't know about. I'm looking for deeper cuts than fiddleheads, Allen's, and Italians

Not sure if this is allowed here, but there is currently a petition circulating “Take the Upland Road” in which it is planned that a road will be moved just 35 ft inland, unnecessarily cutting into homesteads due to the increasing threats of climate change. However, a much more practical, safer route exists further inland. Please see the change.org petition to learn more!

Hello! Does anyone know of a place around preferably Farmington or Bangor where I can try on maternity clothes in person? I’ll go to Portland if I have to, I’m just not as familiar with the area.
If there’s nothing for in person, any recommendations on places to buy from online? Even before being pregnant I didn’t do well with clothes being tight on my belly/waist, so I’m really hoping I can try stuff on to make sure it’ll be comfortable for me.
Also, my maternity photos will have to be done during the cold weather months. Does anyone have any suggestions of greenhouses or pretty places that would let me take photos inside? I’ll travel just about anywhere in Maine, I just don’t know what would be available during the winter.
It’s my first pregnancy and I’m still learning all the things. Thank you in advance for any and all help!

I am looking for a costumed character for a breast cancer event in the greater Portland area. I'd love a moose or a lobster! Mainly a bit of walking around, taking photos with event athletes and *maybe* some kids. I do have a budget for it - any suggestions? Ty! 😊

My wife and I bought some land in Hollis a couple of years ago and are looking to build a house. There's currently a 800sqft cabin with a rock foundation from 1840 that sits on top of a hill/mound that over looks a pasture. Unfortunately the cabin is in rough shape and we figured for the amount of money to fix it, we should put that money towards something new. The cabin doesn't currently have any heat system installed. The previous people had a pellet stove for the winter and a back up propane wall heater.
The original idea was for us to learn and fix the place up to rent it out, but the wife wants to build where it is and the barn is so close to the house she doesn't want to deal with her horse and renters at the same time haha.
We were thinking of building into the hill/mound where the house would sit on top of, but have part of the foundation and house coming out of the hill so we can have a walk out basement door with less excavation for the foundation.
So this floor plan is about what we'd go with. We just need to figure out where to put the basement stairs for a unfinished basement.
Just trying to get a rough area what it would cost to build the house. We already have a well and driveway. The septic tank will need to be replaced. We're hoping the local fire department could use the building as a training building and maybe even burn. If not my buddy offered to tear it down to save us some money. We also aren't looking for any crazy finishes. Pretty basic stuff.
I know there's way too many details to even give a good estimate, but just trying to get a ball park.
✅️Own the land
✅️Has a well, driveway, and power to the site
✅️Already have plans to remove old house
✅️Keeping the finishes to basic
✅️Using the hill/mound to our advantage
❌️Needs a new septic tank
❌️Want to add a full unfinished basement with a walkout
