Omigod! We used to have a community radio station in Maine that was pretty decent, but I stopped giving them money when they ran a Democratic Party program which was spreading anti-Russian (there's that word) propaganda. I told the dude on the phone that I didn't mind them having on a DP program -- he said he couldn't stand it and would bring up my concerns with the BoD -- but not something spreading hate.

Well, that said, I turned on the radio a few weeks ago and the first words I heard were TRANS and QUEER. Turned off the radio. Turned on the radio on Tuesday and it was supposed to be a program about PFAS (big deal in Maine). What did I hear: "Bucksport Pride"! Then the next guest? A woman complaining about Maine's day length!!!!! It was only 1 November so I sort of relish how she'll feel by the Solstice. Why would anyone move to a state that runs through the 45th Parallel and then complain about day length? and I unfortunately know the answer: a bunch of spoiled well-to-do children who most people here wish would disappear.
