It's the third slide in the story

From their Facebook account...

We are putting the building up for sale. We have no buyer. So its business is as usual until it's sold. Even if someone bought it today, it would still take about 2 to 3 months to close. There is still much music to be enjoyed

It was pretty magical 🔥

Smiley is about to be on wpro for call in questions and comments. If anyone wants to give him a hard time about his media tour or anything else. It's 8:30 a.m. right now so just wanted to let people know.

Hello! I'm a local film and stage performer and I co-run Moonrise Sauna at Osamequin Farm in Seekonk MA with my wife. In the spirit of the season, I'll be reading some classic spooky stories at the sauna this Saturday. Come and celebrate Halloween by sweating and cold plunging and watching the leaves fall. I'd love to see you there!

Providence’s presumptive incoming mayor and city council president say it’s time to take the cameras down, citing data privacy concerns. But police say the technology has been vital.

The city's flock contract (60 cameras, about $160k a year) was supposed to run out this saturday. now the city says it actually runs until may 2027. the council has moved to scrap flock and plate readers anyway, and the mayor wants to keep them. the city has never said where its 60 are.

Volunteers on openstreetmap (The Deflock Project) have logged 240 plate readers in providence county and 222 of them are flock. 88 are inside providence itself. that's 28 more than the contract covers, so some of them aren't the city's.

around the city it's cranston 27, woonsocket 20, pawtucket 19, east providence 18, cumberland 11. 14 are tagged cranston pd. 3 are tagged lowe's and 2 home depot. 197 of the 222 have no owner tagged at all.

Whatever the council decides, it decides about the city's 60. nobody has said whose the other 28 are.

The map is where a volunteer logged a camera, but there's no proof it's switched on.

disclosure since it's my job: i work at MAIA, the mapping tool i used.

I'm looking to hire somebody to help reset the inside of my mother's house as it's exceptionally dirty and it has a lot of overall clutter that needs to be dealt with but it's become too overwhelming for her and so the problem has snowballed. I'm hoping to be able to get it to the point where it's easier for her to maintain every day but I'm not sure if it's too big of an ask for any random company I google so I'm hoping to get some personal reccomendations who are willing to do these kinds of tasks

I have two tickets to this event I’m trying to get rid of. Katya dropped out of performing so my wife and I’d rather party locally that night. If interested DM me!!

Was wondering what events are going on in Providence on Halloween this Saturday. In our early 30s so not necessarily looking for a total rave scene, but definitely down for music and dancing.

Is there a Spirit Halloween at the Providence Place Mall this year?

to work my wedding in Narragansett next summer on June 5. Please reach out!

I doubt you’re reading this, but to the person so who stole my wallet at the Planet Fitness at W Fountain Street: Please return it. You can keep the cash. I canceled all my cards. It was an important wallet to me and there were some personal items in there too. Please PM me and I’ll pay you or you can leave it somewhere secure and I’ll retrieve it after you leave. Please I just want the wallet back.

Cheap night of heavy music!

Essentially the title. Looking for good acupuncture and/or TCM practitioners in the Providence area. Very open to Ayurvedic practitioners as well, though I think that is more unlikely so I didn’t include in the title.

(Prepared for the downvotes but please consider not doing that — some of us believe in science, engage with mainstream medicine, and still want to explore other areas of help as well, especially for chronic conditions that have not been fixed otherwise.)

My wife lost a sentimental labubu over the weekend , anyone have any ideas on how or if we could track that down? She had it last at water fire Saturday night its a brown one thank you

I want to bake like a cookie in an oven while working, and leave with anime squiggly lines coming out of me. Currently, this is not possible in my home because the sun hates my place.
Any suggestions like a cafe or library or something else?

College institutions are some of the most well-funded institutions in the state. Why would we pour hundreds of millions into institutions that does nothing for the average citizen? I refuse to pay for a free ride for our young adults.

Is anyone in providence village know how to skate if so can you maybe help teach me?

I have lived just down the street for 5 months and now and I have only seen that parking lot full ONE TIME. This is just not adding up

Maybe a week ago or so, when I was driving to work (7:15-7:30am), about to take exit 36B on 95N (yknow, just past the horrors of 36A that clogs up the whole highway), some sedan tried to sliiiiide right in front of me to also exit and I’ll be damned but I’m pretty sure they had a Cid Highwind bumper sticker: scruffy blonde hair, cigarette dangling out of his mouth, goggles. After that, we both went into the far right lane to take a right, but then I kept driving further to cross the bridge. Anyways, just wanna say that I’m grumpy in the morning but I’d let Cid Highwind merge any day. I hope you had a great day at work or wherever you were going, random person.

Dinner AND a show?!
