So I just get the cheapish ones from lands end or wherever and they make it thru the season and I didnt blow twice the $$ on them. 🤷♀️ Everything is shit these days. Beans used to be one last bastion of quality. Now its just expensive trash. I frequent Sierra these days since one moved in. Or EMS
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes. I just went to the saco "outlet" and SAME. The outlet used to be where us poors would go shop for cheap seconds or irregulars. Back before it was razed to build the parking garage and "mall" in Freeport. Now im not sure its even worth it. Kid wore thru snowpants 1/2 thru winter.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Given the way he says "supposed to" i guarantee he had close buddies in the service from Philly. Im surprised he speaks so clearly being from the Midcoast honestly. Usually have to relax your ear a bit. Similar to rural NH and VTers in cadence, but less rs in pronunciation.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Idk his Rs are a bit hahd compared to my Maine family. Ya gotta drop at least a few to sound truly working class. Jkjk but seriously, I sound more Mainah than him and I've lived almost 20 years (second half of my life) in VT/NH. Especially after a few drinks lol.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
* LLBean. (Autocorrect) I hear they have since done away with that policy and it breaks my heart. We were SO loyal. Not anymore. They started to put profit over people and since then, quality has gone down, so much made overseas. Its a betrayal of their founding values. A betrayal of Mainers.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Clean was a staple for our family growing up in Maine. Because of their policy to repair or replace their products for free if they were damaged by wear and tear. It was the peak of new england thrift. For my working class family, that was insurance that we would all stay warm and dry in winter. /1

100% concur. Once my mom and I (from Maine) got dropped off OUTSIDE grand central terminal in NYC at night because the driver couldn't figure out that he had to call to get them to open the garage doors. Also had a sleazy guy try to get us up to his hotel room near the station in Philly.

Dry camping here with solar panels is ineffective in most places unless youre north near the border where it flattens out significantly.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I disagree, sunset can be like a half hour earlier when youre tucked between mountains. Its not the same there as here. And many MANY people live in these notches in the forest on the sides of mountains. The flat areas are only near the rivers, thats where the farms are.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Solar can be tricky in some rural areas, which is why I think the rooftop solar is not going to cut it for rural, wooded areas. Our back roads go between mountains in VT so between the woods and shade of mtns, rooftop wouldnt do. The mom & pops would need a lot of support to offer it.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Its more common to see a gas station with an electric charger than without, in my area, by far. The only ones that dont have that are either on a really small plot or very rural. (Mom and pop general store w/ 1 pump situation).
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I dont understand why he/they keep going hard with the gas prices thing. Like, they're not going DOWN. We see it every week when we fill the tank. If anything they've gone UP slightly where I am. You can "claim" whatever trillions in savings and we wouldn't really know, but gas prices? We see thelie
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
Im sure whatever the circumstances were, it made more sense to take the train at the time. I did it maybe 2-3times round trip. But it was almost as expensive as flying and took twice the time of driving, so all of that factors in. I took a bus once or twice too but got into hairy situations w/ it.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I drove it many times. I flew a couple times too from a tiny airport in Harrisburg, but it was expensive. Maybe I took plane/train for spring break, I dont remember now. Mostly I stayed with my girlfriends on holiday weekends and only drove home on semester breaks. Nice to be passenger sometimes
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I took a TGV Paris to/from Lille in college. If I remember correctly, the train station is essentially connected to de Gaulle, right? Quick and easy, and when the cities you are traveling between are walkable or have a metro it works really well. But the rural parts here are just SO vast and/or wild
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
My parents and I felt it would be safer and easier for me to take a cab, since I was young and traveling alone and not familiar with the T at the time, with some big luggage. The Boston transfer was the biggest pain in the ass of the trip, but train from Bos to Philly was a tight squeeze & uncomfy
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I live in walking distance of a different train station. Passenger train comes thru 1x/day each direction, I believe. So a day trip to Burlington for example wouldn't really work on the train anyway. Its a ~1.5 hr drive, straight shot up an open highway, and it's a GORGEOUS drive too.
Sara Lamie (@saralamie.bsky.social) reply parent
I was lucky enough to have a train station about 30-40min drive away from home (Portland, ME) and a stop in my college town (central PA). Taxi from Boston No. To So. Station bc they're not connected, change trains again in Philly, get ride to school. It was like a 16 hr day and $$. (8hr drive)

You know, when youre living through a current nightmare of trauma, I think you compartmentalize the old nightmarish traumas you've experienced because thinking about how bad that was doesnt help you get thru today's hell, and in fact may negatively affect your resilience today.

No, Maine voters dont like her either. The problem is that dems haven't run a solid candidate in like 40 years to challenge her. She used to be moderate and stood up for women.

Let's be clear, those were workers under probationary period or contract workers that could get fired with no benefits. Not career feds. They still get their benefits if terminated. It used to be about impossible to fire a fed employee, had to offer 3 other positions unless the offense was massive.

Everyone thinks the patriarchy is just about oppressing women but it actually oppresses men first. Men can’t cry, men can’t care, can’t ask for help, can’t have any interests deemed “feminine”. Men have to always be hypermasculine or else. Ending the patriarchy benefits everyone.
