You've got bars covered, but have you got barcades covered?

Rhode Runner, I haven’t been there but I’ve read really good things about the place within the last 3 minutes.

Rhode runner. Will put you in the best fitting running sneaker for your foot.

Nah. You want somewhere that’s going to truly fit you regardless of brand. Never a single brand store. Rhode runner is the way.

Fourth for Rhode Runner on North Main. Great shop.

1+ for "comfiest" lol

They’re pretty pricey. A friend of mine lives there.

Third for Rhode Runner. They set me up with the comfiest pair of running shoes I've ever had.

Rhode runner on 657 N Main Street in Providence. They do exactly what you’re describing for free.

Rhode Runner on North Main St.

Full disclosure: I haven’t run competitively since high school, and would likely become wheelchair bound if I tried anything longer than a 5k.

Not saying it’s been handled well since!

Halstead Mills maybe

No

I know of a unit available on the 2nd floor, Woonsocket, 2 br:1 ba $1100, off street parking; no pet fee. DM me if anything

Well I mean I don't have a pet right now, so if it came to wanting a pet, or finding an affordable place to live, I'd obviously have to go with having a place to live. I might be crazy, but I'm not stupid.

I miss having a dog (I had to put my 15 year old pup to sleep a few years back due to untreatable cancer she'd developed), and I've reached the point of genuinely wanting another pet, either a cat or a hedgehog or something like that.

But no, my ability to have one of those things definitely wouldnj't determine whether or not I could find a place to live. Priorities. lol I hate being an adult.

Wow you are one of the only people I ever seen on Reddit that see's having a roof over their head more of a priority than a pet, I've seen people on Youtube videos that will not give up their pets for stable housing with no pet policies. Boggles my mind.

If I start teaching I would like to do what you've been doing and make syllabus based on student needs

That sucks. I adjunct at another local college and my syllabi are living documents that evolve based on student need and interest. I love teaching at the higher ed level, and I’m sorry you had that experience with your professors, esp because I can only imagine the debt a lot of your classmates have taken on to get that degree.

Honestly students had a lot of campaigns over the years regarding different issues with the school but it stays on Instagram. I don't have to die on this hill but i just happened to be an unemployed bum to advertise it on reddit for the current students. I thought I was just gonna get some casual lols. My school had done or said seriously messed up things before especially with the new president that people had high hopes for, but the discussions usually stay within school circles.

Thank you for the very thoughtful reflection. Honestly these days it feels like the opposite issue. It's affecting my department at the very least. During all four years a lot of the professors are conceptually vocal about whatever the hell they like, without regards to the different interests of the students. We end up graduating and feeling like we have poor techniques and just wanna draw. The professors who taught techniques were very lacking as well. I think some of the professors during the 2000s that still stayed at school had fallen on hard times. There are times where they just give up teaching. Sometimes older instructors are too or tired sick to teach attentively. There was even a professor who came into the class high.

Ohhhhhh... What the fuck.

Hahahahaha.

Oh our work was absolutely shallow. I mean, I quit art for a whole decade and mostly just do drawings of animals now so I’m not really in a position to say shit. So you’re right. It’s not really about student work. I’ve thought about it a bit and I think that my real issue is the undergraduate program’s rigidity. As an educator I really value interdisciplinary and multimedia study, and want to see art taught as a tool of argumentation.

The exact building I used to live in is on Apartments.com, actually, if you want to give them a try. 2B is still $1k/mo. Idk what your timeline for moving is though.

They are definitely not the greatest landlord, but, coming from Boston, they absolutely are not the worst either -- at least from a building maintenance perspective. They also don't charge pet rent or ask for a pet deposit, which is a rarity. I rented at $1k/mo two years ago, and now I'm currently renting a different 1 bedroom for $1.1k/mo near College Hill.
