Reply to Share your opinion about Fane Tower by quinntronix

Not opposed to more housing, and completely agree that they should be building up and not out. It sucks that we’ll lose the park, but this is a city.

That said, how much are these apartments going to rent for? Not expecting Section 8 but if they cut into a middle class single or more household income by more than 30% (relative to unit size) then they’re useless. Obviously it’s going to be something like starting at one bedroom for 2500 a month.

The building is fucking ugly and (still) looks like an oscillating fan.

Reply to Question about getting RI license after moving here by [deleted]

You will need to go to the DMV and get a new one. Some advice if you decide to go to Cranston:

  • Get there as much time before they open (8:30 am) as you can and wait in line outside. Bring food, a coffee, and a podcast while you wait. It’s worth it. Once the doors open it’s like Best Buy on Black Friday. Waiting for an hour outside > waiting for six hours inside. RI DMVs are reservation/appointment now.

  • Have the paperwork printed and filled out before you arrive so when you get inside you can get right in line and are ready to go. As a bonus you’re catching the staff before they’ve had a chance to deal with anyone else’s bullshit and are typically in a better mood, even more so if you’re prepared.

  • Cash or check but no temporary checks (like when you open a new bank account. I learned this the hard way). Unless it’s changed I don’t believe they take cards.. They take cards with a 3% processing fee.

  • Bring two forms of proof of residency and like every proof of identify you have to be safe.

  • There are some other DMVs in the state that are a little less crowded and somewhat faster. YMMV. I tried Middletown once and it wasn’t all that much quicker. Some other folks should be able to chime in with their experiences.

  • Not sure if it’s changed but when I moved to RI twelve years ago, my first license was good for two years and had to be renewed again in-person. After that it is every five years. Now they allow you to renew online and they’ll mail you a new ID card with your old picture.

No offense but it’s not the state of Rhode Island or your insurance carrier’s fault that the timing for your CT license renewal didn’t work out with your move. 🤷🏼‍♀️ It’s annoying but that’s the way it goes.

If you know anything about central Pennsylvania (aka Pennsyltuckey to us natives), you’d know flavored vapes are the least of their problems with opioids. And if you consumed any information outside of Faux News, you’d know that the opioid epidemic conflates their completely backwards “solutions” rooted in aggravating racism and ignoring poverty. Issues that progressives (not libertarians and conservatives) actually care to solve.

For the record, this Gizz person is very likely a complete clown and Libertarians are just Republicans who think they’re the smartest person in the room. Just thought I’d provide something for you to read since you Fox News people are such cRiTiCaL tHiNkErS.
