Providence’s mayoral campaign was a race between the left wing of the Democratic party and pro-business centrism. The centrist got 🎶trounced🎶 🎶tonight🎶

Voting for Rhode Island governor was like eating dinner at Opa: disgusting, no good choices, not in my best interest or anyone else’s

you also have to be a cop to get one

In a culture that treats cars as sexual objects, it makes perfect sense that people who experience car violence are treated like rape survivors. What was she wearing? It was her fault for being present in a space where bad people were acting dangerously.

Whenever a cyclist is killed by a driver people love to do this bizarre blame inversion where they mention all the reasons drivers are dangerous before concluding that it's actually the fault of the cyclist for daring to bike in the road

We need an army of Matt Shearers out here. Making accessible, engaging videos about how every person has value and showing people how to look for the weird, joyful or interesting parts of a new place instead of acting like a suburban cop freaking out on the Green Line to BC

If you’re a woman and you remember the last time America was having an adventure in Iran, it’s time for that mammogram.

For 50 points, tell me which MBTA commuter rail station features an extensive fairy garden?

such giddy joy about trucks shearing themselves in half. this is pure hater energy. @reportermatt.bsky.social

"It's going to end up with someone dying here. It is urgent, please. They are treating everyone with brutal force." - message from a community member detained at the Wyatt Detention Facility, in Central Falls, R.I. From Alliance to Mobilize Our Resistance (AMOR)'s new report. Read it in full here:

One thing I remember and hardly anyone seems to is that there's a sort of sexual revolution interregnum when all sex was good (seen from the adult male perspective, which it mostly was) including sex with children, which was publicly defended. Feminism, mostly, is what changed that.

Live in the RI suburbs and want to bring your neighbors together? We've got a micro grant for that! Introducing the Pizza Strip Fund, up to $150 for that driveway hang or patio potluck.

Ready for a RIDOT ad that shouts "See! It's not just Rhode Island!"

It was unclear what caused the collapse of the Stillwater River bridge, which was designed in part by engineers at the University of Maine using composite girders. A separate, temporary bridge that has been in place for several years will continue to carry traffic along Stillwater Avenue.

The year is 2117. In a world where AI has progressively deskilled four generations of Americans, only Montessori and Walden School kids are left to carry the flame of civilization.

My sounds-like-conspiracy-theory-but-is-probably-true take is slopAI firms are deliberately targeting education sector; it’s underfunded & weakly protected & by becoming standard there they create generations of dependent users which is only thing that can stop inevitable financial bubble bursting

what was "the incident" at your high school?

Heyyy my boyfriend and I saw you from across the bar and we like your vibe

Because it apparently needs to be said: I have never fucking used the AI/LLM/chatbot/plagiarism machine and I never fucking will. If you use it, I think you're a bad person.

in the Québécois version of King of the Hill (“Henri pis sa gang”), Boomhauer is named Papineau and sounds like this

Gen AI is attractive because our analog information environment has collapsed. Your parents used to be able to call a reference librarian or even a college professor. They had time to visit the library. They subscribed to popular magazines that made academic topics accessible to everyone. Kinda bad!

Sleepy Caturday for Skye and Meowy

My 80 year old mom is griping that “No one has killed him yet” the same way she gripes that the T still hasn’t fixed the stairs to the commuter rail station

I don’t notice many Cybertrucks on the road but the ones I do see look defeated. Unwashed, beat up, driven by hoe-less men who no longer have the energy to pretend that they didn’t get scammed
