Iowa at 20% is pretty damn high for a state that doesn't border Canada at all.

Not just one year, it was "while she was running for Governor in 1994"

I really wish Hannah Pingree had run for Senate instead of Governor but she wasn't about to primary Mills

Very much so, Hannah Pingree is being quiet because she knows Bobby Charles will go down in flames

Oh it's so painful dude, I like Troy Jackson but this is not his format. Susan Collins is just hard to listen to.

I was going to say, this definitely stopped because of the parents of the middle schoolers, not the 4 yos.

Interesting, the ads that cross over onto streaming platforms in Western Maine mostly hit him for being in a relationship with an Amazon lobbyist which of course has a strong homophobic undertone

Loon Mountain Looks East and West
In March 2025, Loon Mountain quietly held an open house for locals to learn about an ambitious expansion plan. Known formally as the 2024 Master Development Plan, Loon would expand east with expert…

I had one lady who was running for county commissioner whose entire campaign seemed to consist of hanging out at the coordinated field office complaining about the placement of her signs in the window and how messy our refrigerator was.

We had one guy on Obama '12 who was our Republican whisperer. He never made the most calls but he would consistently just have the most amazing extended persuasion convos and take tough calls for other vols and he could talk about polls all he wanted lol.

As an organizer, my willingness to shoot the shit about polls or headlines was directly proportional to how good a vol you were.

Well, they certainly aren't a real constituency in Maine

No, not TBD, shah would have been a disaster in either race. 1) Away 2) Brown 3) Deeply associated with COVID 4) No natural constituency outside of Portland suburbians listening to NPR in their Subaru

In general, we need more effective regulation of fully powered (not pedal assist) e-bikes. Perfect example, there is a pending case in my local county court with a guy who got arrested for a fourth DUI on his e-bike.

I don't disagree. My point is not about otherwise sedentary American adults trying to build healthy habits and improve fitness. It's about children playing.

The press desperately wants other people to help them normalize their cowardice and capitulation to fascism

E-motos are probably the most popular kids toy in the rural area I live in

Siebznet @siebzy.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
My point is that when I was 9 there was no such thing as an ebike and we didn't know we were supposed to be afraid of riding our bikes up big hills so we just did it

Personally I think being that stupid should bail the pitcher out on the scorecard

I don't think it should count as a hit if you run that slow and get yourself out to end the inning.

Ok but I recently went on a deep dive into America's Great Loop on YouTube and one of the channels I watched was called "The Boomershine's"

Yeah my former employer was just starting to grapple with rising *Snowflake* costs when AI came along and blew them the fuck up, and of course the same people demanding a tighter budget were the first ones demanding their token budget be increased

I can tell you it doesn't do Susan Collins any favors that her ads are stale, boring, and tone deaf

Eh I'm gonna question the sourcing on the specifics of the targeting, but I don't disagree that they are flailing
