That is the mythical beast Cerberus. The 3 headed dog that satan rescued.

Love that you bring up the third place I'm going to explain for others as a way of also answering you.
Sociologist Ray Oldenburg classified social spaces into an ordinal system. The First Place is the home, the Second is the workplace, the Third Place is a place of socializing and human connection. Rather than leave an exhaustive comment I'd recommend checking out the wikipedia page. Note the barriers to our generation in accessing a 3rd Place compared with age groups from other times. Capitalism in it's relentless drive to seek profit has commodified and in the process destroyed many Third Spaces of the past, the famous example being The Mall of the 90's (the same Mall which was already a commercial space). They have become too expensive or alienating in other ways. One particular strain comes from the culture and very person-hood of the young being split between reality (semi-ironically called 'meatspace') and cyberspaces like this. This space we share now is on the one hand more engaging and accessible then reality but is itself fraught with problems which often lead to shallow and/or dead end relationships or community which is insufficient compared to old models. The last 20 years have tested the corporate aspirations of Sony in its bid to claim cyberspace as the new Third Place and found it to be mostly a failure. Relationships sex and even friendships have continued to decline as depression has risen. In a context of mass alienation people like me have found meaning and community alongside others who understand these challenges by waging coordinated struggle against such forces. You may avoid such a confrontation but you will not avoid these barriers. The barriers I refer to are not impregnable, this is part of their design and function. Still, do not be shocked when you look at yourself in a few years and realize you are still outside.

They should build another one across the street to hide the shopping center from view.

Worker-Consumer alliance was a key component of the organizing strategy of the United Farmworkers under César Chávez's leadership. It's one possible path forward.

In almost every Town in Northern Maine.
Some are even a hazard to Customers. Think of the junked-up isles of carts because they understaff stocking & cashier.

How so? I think boycotting a state that's into censoring history and banning books so as not to make old white rubes uncomfortable is a good idea.

Look man, if you don’t give new things a try, things aren’t going to change. Seems like you’re shooting down everything that’s out of your current comfort zone. But your comfort zone isn’t giving you what you want.
If you’re not willing to go to a social place with friendly people with interests that match yours, I really don’t know what to tell you.

Not “registered” but rather filed at the County registry of deeds for “notice” purposes.

Wessie’s Den Arcade and pinball bar in Westbrook has a monthly Goth meet up called darkness at the den.
Also they are planning to have speed dating at some point in the near future.

Reply to Maine gardeners- what seeds have you started indoors/sowed outside? by Strange-Particular84
Poppies and most hardy seeders, Columbine, Nasturtium, Borage, Bee Balm\Bergamot, Morning Glory, etc will do fine Fall seeding and overwintering, Also, Potatoes and Garlic, plant in the Fall. Bulbs such as Lily, Hosta, Peony, etc do well along the coast anyway, maybe elsewhere they need cover to overwinter.
Indoor-start seeds; Basil, Sunflower, Cannabis, Cukes\Zuccs, Tomatos, Cilantro\Parsley, Peppers including Chilis. The other stuff; we just get seedlings at a nursery.
As others have said, almost all varieties of Peas and Beans including ornamentals like Runner Beans can get planted from seed as soon as the ground is workable, Mid May-ish usually (not that our climate has been predictable lately). We like to stagger planting rows every 3 weeks until end of June so they produce all Summer.
