There ya go sport... I brought ua back up to 0. lol. It's the age old law of human nature... give a little bit of power to those that have never had it and they will surely abuse it.

Your comment prompted me to check on my neighbor's daffodils; his are the earliest around. Sure enough: up several inches. That's crazy early

Only illegal if you get caught.

You should probably look up what a missed connection is before you try and act superior. But apparently you’re too busy putting up dick pics to stop shitting on other people.

And I’ve seen better.

Who do you use for insurance? I drive a 10 year old Chrysler 200 with no comprehensive or collision and a clean driving record and pay about $1100 for my 6 month premium

Sure enough I have some shoots coming up next to my stairs. Definitely a solid 3 weeks early. I’ll take it

Providence has specific regulations and you need to follow health department regulations as well.

Eh… they don’t seem remarkably worse here than anywhere else I’d consider. Bought a mansion in the city limits for under $400k in 2019. Seems like a steal to me compared to a studio condo in Boston

Whoa. I have three cars on my insurance, including a Porsche with full coverage, and it is under $900 per six months for me in Providence city limits.

Wtf are folks driving that it is so much?

thank you!

Don't know jack shit about how to start a food truck however I have seen a bunch of food carts/trucks who I doubt even have a vendors license.

This isn't a missed connection, did you even talk to the person? What gives you the impression they are interested in you? My missed connection is Dua lipa, saw her in a bikini. Dua if you see this let's spark our missed connection

And the coveted Belt!!!

Dammmm right brotha, people missing out just look at Mississippi and the other glorious bum fuck states. Poorest in the country! We're number 1!

That was a $45 spit-take.

I triple it! Local and high quality.

Moo!

I try not to presume because it's 2023 and all that, but my instinct was to assume the opposite as relying on an usher is close enough to "asking for directions" that I assumed a guy wouldn't be doing that.

Seconding Moo.

Oh, remote work is definitely a factor since there's definitely people priced out of other markets. But, there's plenty of other indicators that show an overall health.

That certainly doesn't mean everyone is doing great or anything close to it, but compared to a decade ago or even longer, it's basically a renaissance period for the city/state economically after having a slower than normal recovery from 2008.

> I will say that the economy is absolutely doing well. If it weren't the housing market demand wouldn't be as bad as it is.

Well, not necessarily. As we've seen, people who are employed in Boston or NYC on paper are coming here to live as remote work becomes more feasible. I would be logically possible for RI to be a completely residential state, with no economy of our own outside of the service industry.

However, that's not what indicators would, well, indicate. to wit:

> The department said six employment sectors – construction, finance and insurance, information, manufacturing, professional and technical services, and wholesale trade – reported more jobs in December than they had in the month prior to the pandemic shutdown.

The full article speaks more of the good and bad signs of our economy. The bottom line is that RI economy is doing well, but its rate of improvement is slowing.

Time to change your drool bucket.

Moo!

I mean, are the people buying the luxury eggs actually going to eat them, or is it foreign investments and hedge funds and businesses like AirEne that rent eggs to people that want to live in an egg while on vacation, which will further artificially drive prices higher?
