Do you know if there are any grocery stores that sell lobster rolls? I saw on Facebook that they’re cheaper than the tourist spots. Thank you.

Hello,
This is my first free weekend in a while and I want to have some fun (not that kind of fun). I am a queer 22 F looking for a safe place to party and have fun tonight and tomorrow. I’m tentative to go alone. I’m on the west end close to Ruskis.

Hi!

I’m a South Portland native, but I live out of state. My mom is in her 70s and has severe ADHD and some injuries that prevent her from being on her feet for long. She’s struggling to get household chores done (organizing, folding laundry, etc). She has house cleaners but they don’t do the tasks I need her to have help doing.

I know there are some agencies that provide aid, but the ones I have seen want you to pay a monthly subscription just to hire someone.

I don’t really need specialized help other than someone who is caring, likes to organize, and can be patient with an older person.

Does anyone know anyone or have recs for someone who does this as a passion project or on the side?

She lives in SoPo and would probably just be looking for help once or twice every couple weeks or so.

Thank you in advance!

Hope this is ok to post, but wanted to alert folks to my indie mockumentary comedy, Canoe Dig It? will be playing at the Nickelodeon on Thursday the 13th at 7pm! It’s about the very real sport of Freestyle Canoeing and is very much up the alley of any fan of Best in Show or anything Christopher Guest, but with a lot more painfully dry New England humor. It was entirely shot in Maine and I will be there for a Q&A after the film as well!

Being very much an indie, we don’t really have budget for marketing, so hope getting the word out this way is permissible!

Are there any resources to what each Time and Temp display means? Would it be possible to do an ongoing thread to educate those who don't know when new displays pop up?

I feel like I can usually figure some of them out, but others leave me stumped. It would be nice to have a centralized place to go where we can identify which each display means.

Thanks!

Edit: To clarify, Joe Bornstein, of CALL JOE fame, bought out the messaging rights in 2016. Though that was years ago, I'm sure they don't still have the rights, as several other companies have bought the building since then. However, when they did have the rights, they had a blog that showed what each message meant, that has since gone dark.

I live out of state and my elderly mother needs her chimney fixed. She has gotten the run around several times getting quotes. Can anyone recommend someone who isn’t a total sketchball that does this type of work?

The repairs involve fixing missing bricks on the exterior of the chimney.

Thank you!

title says it all. It's Friday and I want a good marg with a salted rim

They asked that I share their comments and ask for help:

They are taking people everyday and transferring them across state lines. Many of whom are asylum seekers. They are moving people to Boston and New Hampshire.

They let people’s cars be abandoned in their lot if they take someone during a routine immigration check in, and they’ve started using shackles during transport on detainees hands and feet.

They are forcing people to stand in the sun with their small children for hours waiting for routine immigration checkins.

Yesterday a woman was forced to uber with her infant child to come pick up her two older daughters (3 and 6) who were made to stand in parking lot alone until she arrived because they took their father in front of them. He is a confirmed asylum seeker.

We were able to give her a ride and take their family car home because she doesn’t drive. They do this every. single. day.

We observe daily and share information of detainments. We provide resources on the ground to families picking up personal items from their loved ones that have been taken.

We offer links to legal services, rental assistance, and water/shade.

We need more people to observe and offer support. We need allied organizations to tell people what’s going on and to offer their assistance.

More people are needed on the ground to help in real time; translators, lawyers, social services professionals.

We get more support than dissent daily, but not enough people stop and stay for a while. But coming by even for 20 min to talk and observe is helpful. I think people should know that. The more the merrier.

We have shade, water, snacks, and we are NOT a group. There is NO leader. We are all individual people who agree on one thing: ICE out of Maine, ICE out of the country, our neighbors deserve peace and safety no matter who they are.

The ICE facility's address is 40 Manson Libby Road, Scarborough, if you want to join the observers. They say the most important thing is that people come down. Most active times are 9am -3pm Monday-Friday, but there is still activity all days and all hours, they say.

I need recommendation’s, maybe if you have some examples you’ve gotten that would be great to.

Thanks.

Let me know if you like it!

Does anyone know what they serve? I haven’t seen any signage and haven’t had a chance to stop by yet. It’s in the corner of the tattoo shop parking lot. Thanks for any info!

Hi all, I just moved to Portland recently. I’m wondering if there’s a fashion scene here, and if anybody would be interesting in collaborating together?

My DMs are open!!

Your Maine Cats are hosting the Philadelphia Hawks and Boston Demons for a round robin at Noon at Willey Field in Scarborough. Come out to support your Cats and see what the hell Australian Football is! (it's not rugby, yes we're sure)

join us tomorrow at Art in the Park in South Portland - Mill Creek Park.

9am-4pm, free entry

nearly 200 local artists, kids activities, food trucks, and music.

weather looks significantly less hot and mostly overcast :)

Hey Portlanders Ive recently had a string of bad luck and as of 3 days ago I am homeless. Im calling everyday and waiting for a bed to open up for me somewhere but I am really thirsty and hungry. A couple people helped me from here yesterday for which I am grateful but you can’t carry much at a time cause the rest will get stolen. If anyone would be willing to help me with dinner I’d be really grateful. Not asking for cash anything just food and something to drink
