The taco truck on Hemlock Street is goated! IYKYK

It's 2026 and the MBTA commuter rail is still using diesel locomotives. I think that's embarrassing! Europe and Asia and a good portion of Latin America outclasses America on passenger rail
Hellacopter foaming moment
The Rhode Island Transit Master Plan not being put into fruition feels like a cruel April Fool's joke
I wished the Rhode Island government spent more money on the arts and culture and built and helped fund the construction of new arts facilities and museums. I feel like it's a good bet from an economic standpoint with the ability to retain RISD alum from moving away and from a tourism standpoint
This is what you get when you underfund public transit and build a transit system around mostly funneling people to and from downtown, forgetting that that's not always the fastest and most efficient way to get from one side of the city to the other
To get to Mr. Greek's Pizza & Grill on Branch Ave in Providence from my house it takes 9 minutes by car, 50 minutes by public transit, and 40 minutes on foot. There should not be a world where walking is faster than public transit let alone driving being the fastest mode by a huge margin
As a person who likes going to shows of various types of genres of music, I can relate to this toooooo much
Though sometimes the RIPTA even doesn't have detours on their website if it's a construction related detour, which is such a hassle
Can @ripta.com have a text alert system whenever there's a detour on a specific bus route so I don't forget that there's a parade on Smith Street, causing me to miss my train among other causes for a bus detour
Italian American lefitsts that hate Columbus day🤝 leftist Irish Republicans that hate the British monarchy and want a united 32 county Ireland
we did such a huge mistake in not improving rail transit and public transit when we moved the tracks, it was basically only a net benefit for just the real estate developers
Hot take: RIDOT should've demolished 6/10 and built a light rail system in it's place, demolished the current i95 alignment and rerouted i95 to i295(basically a rename), instead of moving the trains out of union station. It's a pain that the buses and the trains aren't in the same spot anymore
Is it a My Bloody Valentine (yes they're from Dublin) St. Patrick's Day or is it a Special Branch, Flower Power, Strong Boys, Bedsores St. Patrick's Day?
What do you call Greek revolutionaries? They're called Gyros
Funny that someone who's trying to get into the Providence art scene asked me how they can make a living as an artist when I have that exact question myself or basically something similar to that
Sometimes having a passion for art and music is a curse because it's really hard to make a living off of the arts stable with any sort of financial stability. I'm not good at anything or have passion for anything other than making art, booking concerts and curating art shows
The new Iceage song sounds like a mix of Pavement and The Cure, instant classic!
It really upsets me that a band that spoke out so heavily against the Iraq war in the early 2000's has decided to not listen to the voices advocating for a free Palestine and be wishy washy at best
when I was 13, I used to say Coldplay was diet Radiohead but still a guilty pleasure. Now that Radiohead are Zionists and Coldplay has shown that they're pro-Palestine, I'm more open to giving Coldplay some slack. The first 2 Coldplay records have a few bangers NGL
I hate AI but props to the CEO of Anthropic AI for not allowing the US government to use their products for mass surveillance and to power autonomous weapons. Not allowing your tech products to aid genocide and war is the morally correct thing to do!
Damn I really miss taking walks around Providence without worrying about getting hit by a car because some sidewalks are unshoveled!
Overheard at Apple Cinema lobby:
boyfriend: going home go and play some call of duty?
Girlfriend: No, I'm going to the gym!
Boyfriend: fuck that I'm going to play some call of duty!
So fried today, I forgot where I was sitting on this Amtrak train hahaha! Yes I am taking a day trip to NYC to see one of my friend's art at a gallery opening today
Oh, so Honest Ed's is like the Toronto version of Building 19!
Like there's the RI International Film Festival, Ivy Film Festival, African Film Festival, French & Francophone Film Festival, Italian Film Festival, 48 Hour Film Festival, One Minute Film Festival, and now the YouTube Poop Festival
I am going to a YouTube Poop film festival in Providence tonight! Providence is kinda underrated when it comes to film festivals and I'm being dead serious
Damn I didn't know that Popol Vuh did the soundtrack for the Herzog Nosferatu? I guess Herzog has some Krautrock cred now!
Debris Bardot or Autobahn need to play Providence!
Yesssss finally! My street is getting plowed! I've been stranded since Monday
