John is one of the most genuine, informed, reasonable, and considerate people I know. I trust him completely. Politicians like that are rare. I have no idea if he can win this race, but I hope people read up on his background and policies and pay attention to him.

It is & Warren has some fun shops and beautiful outdoor areas to enjoy in the warmer days ahead as well.

Smart casual? I’ve seen people dressed well to go out to dinner and I’ve seen t-shirts and jeans. I’m going tonight in a shirt and pants. Nothing crazy.

In a somewhat similar moody vein, how about Courtland Club

Shelters and rescues are not the same thing. Not all rescues are shelter-based, many operate with the help of foster families. Your post is suspicious because both shelters and rescues vet adopters, and when people are looking to avoid going that route, it's possible there's a reason they wouldn't pass the vetting process.

This isn't Maine. Plus we have a habit of picking up strays, and kinda trapping them here, as a state. So in my book, if they grew up here amongst my kids, if they have an accent and have a preferred party pizza, they're Rhode Islanders. Yeah first generation. It don't take long to get salt in your bones

48 lofts at 1 person per loft is 48 people living in downtown who probably wouldn’t be there if not for the small size and relative affordability. Paolinos “studley” building is 65 micro units and the one next to “the dorrance” is also micro lofts.
I see people coming and going from the arcade pretty often when im walking by. You can enter and exit from either side

Not sure about his policies but dude’s a bad tipper.
I’m a single issue voter and it’s “are you a good tipper?”

Red Stripe is comparable with food prices and drinks. Salted Slate maybe too - haven’t been in a while.

I didn't realize rescues would have so many puppies, assumed mostly mature dogs. thanks!

Yeah that’s why I said I’ve seen them for sale….but given the size sometimes those types of places aren’t primary residences.
I’ve never seen a soul when I go in the arcade. Obviously those condos aren’t housing many people just given their size - guessing most are solo occupied. Hence not a good example of residences contributing to pedestrian traffic!

I’ve been to both a few times and they’re nothing alike. Come to think of it you may be right about the interior design being somewhat boring, but I never got the vibe that the atmosphere was lacking. The food and drinks are really good. Get the duck fries

This place has the same look as Figidini, have you been there? The food is amazing but the atmosphere is kind of sterile.

I'm really not sure what you want from me then. Do you want me to call out your prejudice or not? You've requested it both ways now, so I'm a bit confused.
But you know what? I don't really care how you feel, I'm going to keep doing what I want. No need for you to respond.

It's not an opinion. Again, do some research.
And yes, very bad look. Instead of acknowledging that you don't understand urban street culture, you call people racist.

Reply to Anyone at Hadestown at PPAC last night? We were in the Loge, found it hard to understand what was being said/sung, and at intermission, everyone pulled out there phones to figure out what was going on. by quinnkurk
We went Sunday night. We'd seen the show in Boston at the Orpheum Theatre and I thought it was the most amazing show I'd seen to date. The vocals were flawless. I found last night at PPAC to be too loud at points, at the point of piercing rather than stirring, and vocally inferior to the Boston performance in 2021. But now I am thinking it may have been the audio as you are all suggesting. Though when I have seen Wicked, which has some giant notes, the sound has always been great. We were in the last row of first dress circle.
