Seriously- what will it take to get the City of Providence to shovel its own sidewalks on one of its most dangerous streets? North Main remains untouched at 5pm today. Thank you @ripta.com for shoveling the bus stops!

Help needed: I recently watched a reel I can’t find again where someone described a theory in which people can sense that government is no longer working but can’t prove that it doesn’t work. Was originally used to describe peoples thoughts before Soviet Union dissolution. Anyone know?

Visited the European Food Market in Cranston today. Bought some yummy cheeses, meats, pickled things. Sadly, owner suggested that she’s likely closing up for good soon after 30 years. Get your Eastern European goods locally while you can!

Good morning nerds. A friend of mine made this awesome website to help folks talk about their favorite maps and point out important bits. I made one about a favorite map of Rhode Island that we sell prints of at The Map Center. Check it out! pixeum.org/exhibits/569...

PSA: I just had a Genesee Cream Ale in a high backed leather tufted barstool at the very rad Mimi’s Lounge in Pawtucket. Will return.
