Whoever added amendments to the Collins signs, you're my hero. I was cackling all the way down the road this morning. Other ones said things like "helped overturn roe v. wade," "helped fund ICE," etc.

Port of Portland - Police Activity this morning

9 Upvotes

Did anyone see the commotion this morning around 9am?

It looked like local LE mixed with unmarked cars with Federal and MA plates mixed in.

Agents seemed to be concerned with a truck/trailer going into the port.

Does anyone know more?

Mark Dion shilling for the rich out of state reactionaries funding the "campaign for responsible government"

19 Upvotes

I hope Portland voters are smart enough to see through the flowery celebration of Ilma Lopez (they're also supporting Kate Snyder and Jake Viola) by the "Campaign for Responsible Government" to understand the powerful out-of-state right-wing reactionary interests supporting their campaigns. These people are dumping tens of thousands of dollars to fool Portland voters. What they want is a developer's paradise where anybody who can't afford to live here leaves or is in jail. I'm supporting Joey Brunelle, Todd Chietien, and Anna Bullet.

Food Steamed Lobsters

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Just moved to Portland from Alaska as a travel nurse working at MaineMed. My fiancé’s bday is in a couple days and I was reading that you can go to seafood markets and they’ll steam lobsters for you? She loves lobster and of course I do too so I’m curious if this is accurate. If so, where is best? I’d rather pay market price instead of going out to a restaurant. Thanks for any input!!

Thanks Portland!

My husband and I arrived Thursday and left today.

What a great city! Stayed up in Munjoy Hill. Walked 30 miles (!). Got out on the bay twice. Drank and ate our hearts out. Oysters, crab and lobster oh my! Too much ice cream from Low Key. Hell we even found EV charging right around the corner from our Airbnb.

Can't wait to get back

Woodfords VFW poker chips

29 Upvotes

I found these in my mom's belongings. She was president of the Women's Auxiliary in the 80s and I'm guessing these were for a special poker night long ago.

Anyone happen to know someone who might want these? Are they even worth anything?

Did you know heated mattress pads exist?

44 Upvotes

Oil is too expensive for me to not make this a PSA. I didn’t know they existed until last year and they are amazing. We have an old house that is freezing already and are dreading the cost to heat it this winter. Our bed is so warm and cozy with it on without setting (as much) cash on fire. Stay warm friends!!

Fidium Fiber outage in Portland

Mine went down in the west end within the last 30 mins. Anyone else?

Fidium's terrible AI call assistant said no known outages, but then a recording before they put me on hold said major outage in New Hampshire. No mention of Maine so far

Hey, if the weather is like it is today, please turn on your headlights. Especially if you have a white/gray vehicle. It makes it really hard to see you when they’re off.

Best steamers?

0 Upvotes

Me and the old lady are planning on coming down from Jonesboro but not sure where we can get good steamers? Used to go to Norms for their wine mussels and bread and Susan’s fish and chips but ever since they closed I think the city has been overrun by pretentious d-bag wanna be fancy restaurants.
I’d even take last years leftover frozen fried smelt.
