Lol, why do you want to know where he lives? Tryin to catch him outside for animal rights?

I'd prefer more red brick, BUT BEGGARS CANT BE CHOOSERS!!

More housing please!

It’s a plague on nearly every city it goes through.

NEVER FORGET!

NEVER FORGET WHAT ZONING REGULATIONS TOOK FROM YOU!

This is the correct answer. Best Chinese food and some of the best food period in town.

As others are saying, olneyville is good. Also Chalkstone and silverlake. Both neighborhoods are VERY diverse (especially in terms of Latinos) but have a lot of Mexican markets/good restaurants.

La lupita in olneyville and Taconazo in silver lake are the best Mexican restaurants in town.

I’m not making a political statement. I’m just saying there was a time when you could have a drag story time and no one gave a shit.

I preferred that.

I would really like everyone to just chill the fuck out.

If you don’t tip you’re a piece of shit. Obviously our system for paying restaurant workers is bad, but as individuals, just be a decent human being.

This is the way!

There isn’t much research done on folks in subsaharan Africa. While this shouldn’t surprise anyone, it’s cool/good that this research is being done.

This (and Taconazo in silver lake) is the correct answer. Good as anything in Texas PALABRA.

Do you speak Spanish? Any Main Street outside of the east side will have Dominican barbers that specialize in fades. Usually they have one or two guys who speak English.

In my neighborhood there are two good barber shops on Chalkstone between los Andes and academy, but if you drive around any middle class/working class main streets, they are everywhere

i apologize for being insensitive. obviously i get a *little worked up* about zoning issues in providence, but you are my neighbor, and i'm truly sorry you were made to feel unwelcome anywhere in providence.

… I think you’re confused.

…I’ve lived in the city limits providence since I was three months old.

Oh you don't spend much time in fed hill huh? makes more sense now.

Uhh I’m there most weekends in the summer, and I love walkable, diverse spaces where you can buy food and support small businesses. I’d like there to be more of these places, including in underutilized parks.

I do have a personal stake in it.

Also (obviously) I enjoy arguing with you losers on reddit. It's a vice. It's fun for me.

I live in the real world. I could ask these goombas to be nicer, but it would not change their behavior. So what does that mean? Physically remove them?

How would you advocate driving the elderly Italian men and sleepy homeless guys out of the park? Muscular police presence? Violent initial show of force followed by undercover enforcement?

On this sub there is a simultaneous ideological obsession w public spaces that’s combined w a fear and dislike of the types of people who will inevitably congregate in public providence parks.

I’m not telling her to grow thicker skin, I’m just pointing out that she is not going to use or like the institutions she’s advocating.

If someone doesn’t like neighborhood parks because they are open to the (often not-perfect) members of the public, it’s silly for them to advocate more public parks, especially when there are opportunity costs to establishing said parks.

Your comment is a little incoherent? You didn't really finish your thought in the last sentence?

I'm not telling you to be like anything, and I'm not condoning the social attitudes of elderly Italian-American men. However, they ain't gonna change, and fed hill is theirs.

As someone who grew up in providence hanging out in MUCH more hostile/dangerous parks than the Bocci court, I can tell you that enjoying public spaces in urban areas takes having a somewhat thick skin. They aren't for everyone, it is what it is.

I think you are representative of the type of person who is advocating replacing well-utilized, fun restaurant space with half-assed park space that you won't use and that will be under utilized generally.

As someone who used to work there, I can tell you you’re incorrect. North end is played out.
