Hillary and biden "carrying" all the loose states seems incredibly disingenuous when maine actually contributed electoral college votes to trump. Wonder if the author even knows about maine's non-all for 1 system....

I wonder what the north's looseness rating is though because some of the stuff like natural disasters and resources entirely buck the trend of being tight

Also I'm pretty surprised (and almost skeptical) about the dakotas. Plenty of natural resources, didn't think they were susceptible to disaster or environmental stuff not at all densely populated. Are they fat as fuck and dying early or something?

There are a lot of reasons to do that in an intersection. For this one, I'd imagine it's because the traffic from 196 on the left is coming down a hill, and if you turn right out of Topsham Fair Mall Road, you're immediately heading uphill and accelerating slowly, so it could cause traffic issues or accidents.

I've heard from York locals that it's a rundown mess and there isn't anything to do (aside from looking at the animals, of which there aren't many). I haven't been since I was a kid but apparently it's gotten worse over the years.

Its a run down disaster. Went down to some york fair last fall and you had to park on one side of the wild kingdom, walk through it to the other side where the baseball diamond is.

We saw the whole thing and I wouldn't go there for myself nor trust my kid there for any reason.

i had fun there as a kid. as a vegan adult i would definitely not give them my money. there are plenty of more ethical sanctuaries in maine. there’s a bird sanctuary in ellsworth that i personally really enjoy; if your kiddo thinks owls n vultures are cool i’d definitely recommend checking it out.

Shit I replied to the other person first, my bad

Fancy iced coffee flavors like s’mores and white chocolate truffle, things like that. But also with alcohol in them.

They come in a flight like ciders or margaritas though so you get a few small ones for some variety

Not typically how I like my booze or coffee but I figure it’s worth a shot lol

Hey if it’s any consolation I didn’t know about them till like, three days ago and I’m 26 lol

It’s a flight like ciders or margaritas: you get a variety of a few smaller drinks that are all different flavors. It’s just fancy flavors of iced coffee with booze though at the end of the day. Stuff like S’mores, caramel mocha, white chocolate truffle etc etc

I’m more of a black iced coffee with liquid sugar kinda guy myself but I want to try it before I write it off lol
