Makes sense to me. I went there to shop for a mattress a couple months ago, the place stunk like mildew throughout the store, the AC didn’t work and the water fountains only had hot water. I didn’t buy anything: if that’s how they present their display then I don’t want to find out how they store their stock.

I thought it was just me. Take the slurs in this thread and replace them with slurs for Jews, African-Americans, Polish-Americans, etc. and I would think the ban would hit so fast that there'd be skid marks.

As I understand it’s an ethnic slur towards Italians that originated when early immigrants had to travel by day for fear of being lynched, hence the name day-goers which evolved into Dago. Could also have applied to others but I’m not sure. Apparently Reddit is perfectly fine with slurs being thrown around at us, so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Might also want to consider take her into Boston next weekend for https://www.micexpo.org/ - The Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo.

I plan on taking my son, who also is very artistically inclined. My co-worker has been before and says it's great.

Also maybe have her sign up for an illustration class! Sometimes the art museum and other places around town have classes you can take that are for drawing comics, illustrating, and such.

Everyone has already covered that’s e! But also artifakt supply In tatnuck square does comic book illustration classes. You can follow them on Instagram for those details.

Also the worcester art museum offers similar classes. Worth looking into.

I have had two home inspections done by Nick TOLMAN from Aventine Home Inspections. Extremely thorough and explained everything he was doing and looking for. Sends a report to you within hours, but he pretty much tells you everything he finds as he goes. Price was $400 for <2,000sq ft.

https://bonafidehomeinspections.com/ Wayne was very meticulous, came on time at the location and took around 3 hours to inspect the property. Gave a detailed report with photos same day. radon testing was included as part of inspection. He has license for both home inspection and pest as well which is a plus. Cost was about $750. Highly recommend.

Try "The Firehouse" or "Distant Castle" both are collective houses that put on shows here and there.
