Ohhhhh it looks like T.S. Warspite and Wits End are playing a show in DC in April, I hope this means they're doing an East Coast tour and also playing Providence or Boston!

RIPTA buses are getting so delayed because of snow related traffic that I can't take a single bus to an event that would make it on time to the event I want to go to. I hate this, I knew winter would be so fucking miserable because of the RIPTA bus cuts but I didn't know DPW would be so incompetent

Roads in Providence are plowed so badly that a rider on this bus did some vigilante directing of traffic because some cars couldn't squeeze by

The sidewalk and road conditions in Tallinn, Estonia (photo stolen from a friend) are better than in Providence. This is ridiculous, being a pedestrian in the winter in Providence sucks!

Feeling kinda sad that it seems like the Brown University student galleries are closed to the public now due to safety reasons relating to the shooting that happened on campus last month

I don't usually cheer for the closure of a local business but I am glad Plant City is closing. The owners were cybertruck driving, bike lane hating greenwashers who didn't care about their community nor their workers. Millionaires trying to cash in on veganism being "Trendy"

I wished more people talked about their hobbies and not just their jobs when you ask them what they've been up to

I blame Rhode Island restaurant chain Chelo's for the fact that I sometimes misspell the instrument Cello

If only the Kennedy Plaza indoor waiting area looked this nice, oh wait, a certain former mayor that still somehow has political power wants to move buses out of Kennedy Plaza, so the state doesn't want to put money into the plaza, even for upkeep

I want to do an art show of visual art inspired by sobriety and straight edge made by artists who are sober or straight edge

I know I should just use Transit App for RIPTA but I think it's ridiculous that RIPTA still hasn't updated Google maps to its winter schedule yet, it's been 2 days

I feel like I haven't seen an outie belly button since I was a little kid

Thinking about that Reddit post of someone asking if it would be too on the nose to bring someone who wears an eye patch by choice on a first date to a pirate themed bar in Providence

Ocean state sandwich company is blasting The Outlaws and Creedence Clearwater Revival right now, OLD SCHOOL!

Transcendental Psychosis by Long Knife has the same riff as Betray by Minor Threat

I've lived in Rhode Island my whole life, but I've never been on a sailing trip in my life despite the fact that Rhode Island is the sailing capital of America, so I want to take a sailing trip this summer but IDK how expensive that would be

I wish it wasn't so hard to build a lot of architecturally aestheticly pleasing housing built that's also inexpensive to build

hey @govdanmckee.bsky.social, stop using the GOP tax cut playbook, not all tax cuts are good. Expanding social safety net programs does more to lift people out of poverty than tax cuts

I'll never understand rural state senators voting against more public transit! Climate change is horrible for rural farming communities. It practically makes farming even harder

This song in this dj set has a sample of a guy saying Mark and I keep turning my head around because I think it's someone calling my name

I'm realizing my personality is too chill for cannabis and that's why I'm straight edge. Like I never needed anything to chill me out because I always ended up too sleepy because my baseline personality is already mellow

There needs to be a bus that connects West Warwick to Providence directly! I feel bad for the people who live there that have to take 2 buses to get to Providence. I had to take 3 buses just to get to Fryberead in West Warwick this afternoon, too long!

I think it's kinda insane that the indoor waiting area at Kennedy Plaza is closed hours before the last buses of the night, that's when the buses are the most infrequent and starts to get colder. half the time the heat isn't even on in the building either! I get that RIPTA is so underfunded though

Fuck I really think the physical pain I get from being in the cold and also sinus issues I get being in the cold have been messing up my mood. Being too cold to take walks and such

It's 2026 and there still demolishing buildings in Providence to make way for more parking? That needs to be so out in 2026

Booking a really sick hardcore punk band from San Francisco that doesn't use distortion pedals on May 29th! Very excited for this one!

Downtown East Providence is starting to feel like the Somerville of Providence

I can't believe I'm gonna see Straight Ahead in April

Would recommend seeing the Martin Puryear exhibition at the MFA in Boston!

I don't care if you want to make time between bands to be long so that people have time to socialize, if there's an hour of downtime in between bands, I'm going home

Save Our Children and Stunted Youth are the Nosferatu and Enemy One of the 2020's

I'll never understand people who write reviews of food spots saying the food is great but the people working there are rude and giving them a low rating. If the food is great, I don't care if the cashier isn't cheery or friendly.

I was feeling sad about turning 30 today because time feels like it's going by too fast and I have so many goals I want to accomplish and things I want to do, but I have some of the sweetest friends!!!

Get your bassist to write a song or two! You'll get insane grooves in those songs!

These Canada geese are telling me about the Career Suicide show they went to in Toronto and that I should've gotten tickets before they sold out

If there's one thing to know about me it's that I hate it when people say I live in North Providence. I'm a city boy and live in Elmhurst, within the city limits of Providence, not some stroad laden suburban nightmare of a city that is North Providence

I absolutely love it that RIPTA has been detouring outbound 50/55/56/57 buses away from Gaspee St without any info about that on the RIPTA service alerts webpage! Not fun!

One of my friends in London has seen Alex G about 10 times since 2015 and I have yet to see him live for some reason, I swear ill see him next time he plays Boston!!!

Hot take: 90's Hatebreed were a Crust band because they were influenced by Bolt Thrower and Celtic Frost

I saw Ovlov in Providence and they found the Brown University shooter dead, I guess today is a good day!

I had no idea that Gun Outfit was still a band because apparently they're playing a free one off show in New York in February and no other shows. Why can't they play in Boston or Providence???

Listen to the feeble minds demo right now

Some days I feel like Providence will never become the type of city I want it to be. There are so many things I wished we had more of but don't due to expensive rent, neoliberal politics and just plain corruption

I wanna see Hamnet at the Avon tomorrow but idk if I should go to Thayer Street until they catch the shooter, but they stop showing Hamnet at the Avon on Thursday. IDK if the Avon is even open this week because of the current situation

youtu.be/dhV9VbxV3Rw I missed this record's 30th birthday by a few months but regardless it was one of the first electronic records I got into back when was 10, very influential to me getting into experimental music later on in my teen years. I am also turning 30 next week

Oh so this is basically clam cakes but with oysters instead

Why the fuck does RIDOT still use pseudoscience invented by the automobile industry as a way to combat traffic? The automobile industry doesn't care about curbing traffic, in fact it's in their best interest for traffic to exist because it means more car sales which means more money for them

This cold weather is gonna be so much more unbearable now that RIPTA buses are more and more often 10 minutes late or more! We really need to #saveripta

Grand Scheme NEEDS to play Providence!!!

Props to East Providence focusing affordable housing development in their downtown area, actually making downtown East Providence more of a place with an identity. Probably the only Providence suburb that has been actively reversing urban sprawl development patterns
