Just picked up my residential license for the first time in this area. Good spots to go? Best to park at Middle Beach? Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I'm a local trivia host looking to partner with another brewery, restaurant, or bar in Southern Maine for a recurring trivia night.

I've been hosting weekly trivia for several years and write all of my own questions. My games feature a mix of question formats, are played the old-fashioned way with pen and paper, and are designed to be fun, challenging, and accessible.

If you'd like to see how I run things, I currently host trivia every Wednesday at Westbrook on Tap. Come play a game and check it out!

If you own, manage, or work at a venue looking to start trivia, or know someone who is, I'd love to connect. I'm also available for private events, corporate outings, fundraisers, and themed trivia.

Thanks!

Wanted to share the Youtube link to last night's City Council meeting.

I’ve been designing 3D printed anti-ice pins and whistles. People seem to love them on Etsy but, not everyone wants to wait for shipping. I couldn’t find anything locally so I’m filling a gap.

I went to Mechanic Park today and handed out over 30 whistles and pins. People immediately put them on and seemed to love them.

The text and colors can be changed to whatever you want! “TRUMP OUT!”, “FUCK ICE!”, “PEOPLE OVER PAPERWORK”, or even just an ice cube melting.

I am giving away the whistles for free and selling the pins for $5 each. If you want one or have an idea for a custom pin, hit me up.

Designed and 3D printed right here in Biddeford.

We’ve noticed it around the last few weeks in the early mornings and finally got a picture last night.

World Socialist Web Site reporters spoke to protesters in Houston, Texas and Biddeford, Maine this week, the sites of two daylight murders of workers on their way to work by ICE Gestapo agents

Who have stood with us at Mechanics Park over the past week, we thank you. Whether it was for a few minutes, or a few hours, YOU helped make a difference. I have witnessed beautiful things in that park this week.

We will continue to be out there, every day, as much as humanly possible.

WE WILL NOT LET THIS GO. WE SHOULD ALL BE THIS OUTRAGED.

70 billion dollars to ICE, and they won’t even pay the body cam contract to turn the cameras on!!!

That’s your tax dollars being used to execute innocent people outside their homes, with ZERO accountability.

And for all the people still supporting ICE, thank you for letting your community know exactly what kind of neighbor you are. It’s not gone unnoticed.

Hope to see you out there again soon. ❤️

WSWS reporters visited Mechanics Park in Biddeford Tuesday, where flowers, candles, handwritten notes and a Bluey blanket and stuffed toy line the fence near the site of the killing. Hundreds of residents have rallied there since Monday, at one point flooding into the Main Street office of Republican Senator Susan Collins chanting “Vote her out!”

Kelsey lives and works a block from where Guerrero was killed. “I’m angry,” she said. “We’ve been screaming about this for a long time. We always do what we’re told. I attend meetings. I call. I email. I show up when I can, and they [the politicians] don’t listen.”

We found a rooster last night at Mechanics Park. We have kept it safe, and fed overnight, but would really love to find who he belongs to, or a place we can take him. While we love him dearly, he can’t live at the protest.

Booked and put on by the legendary Rumors in Biddeford!

Considering the recent tragedy, community is more important than ever. There's a lot of great events this week to connect with your neighbors, be it through art, music or a meet up.

Write Below Anything I Missed

Harassing 3 people from across the street. What a clown.

i am really reeling from the news from monday. i think that we can’t let the momentum we have in this moment pass, and that we need to keep up the protests and the vigils until change is made. just wondering if there is anything organized over the next few days :)

My friend and I were assaulted by a man tonight while peacefully holding signs at Mechanic Park. She was punched in the face by this coward, who has his “son” with him. Son had a winter hat pulled down over his eyes, man had a red headlight, and was extremely intoxicated. I don’t believe they’re actually father and son.

These agitators are out in full effect. They won’t stop us.

Be there ✊
