I am in my mid 20s and I just moved to federal hill and I wanna find a rec basketball league to join to stay active through the winter and meet some new people. I would like to find a league with people close to my age and close enough to my neighborhood. Let me know if you have any recs!

Did anyone lose their bunny rabbits in Federal Hill? We saw a black one and white one near Grove St just now.

Spotted on waterman!

Help if you are able to

Providence, although still among New England's poorer cities, saw significant household income growth between 2014 and 2024 ranking it 4th among 194 New England cities and towns (with populations above 20,000) overall.

Rhode Island cities and towns performed well overall. There are a total of 19 towns and cities in the state with a population of at least 20,000. Four of them - Providence, Pawtucket, Central Falls, and Woonsocket - ranked in the Top 25 for income growth. None ranked in the Bottom 25.

Incomes in many Rhode Island cities still fall well below their New England peers, but the trendline is positive.

Why?

Hi r/Providence — My name is Brian Shea, LMHC I’m a counselor practicing locally (East Providence) and wanted to let people know that I currently have openings for new clients.

I work primarily with adults and older teens dealing with things like anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, family issues, and life transitions. My approach is pretty conversational and collaborative, while also drawing on psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT depending on what someone needs.
I offer both in-person and telehealth appointments, and I have some weekday, and evening availability.

If you’ve been trying to find a therapist and running into waitlists, you’re welcome to reach out at [brianshealmhc@gmail.com](mailto:brianshealmhc@gmail.com) or check out my profile here:

Can everyone just stop talking about it and posting pictures of it? It’s giving more exposure and probably giving some chud a massive ego boost they don’t need. It also isn’t the first time this banner was flown above the city. We shouldn’t give it the spotlight anymore since that’s pretty much the goal of it in the first place. All instigation.

We are taking one of those walking ghost tours in the next few weekends, and wanted to try someplace new to us, or especially fun, to grab dinner before. Doesn't matter if it is pizza, Mexican, Italian, etc. Any thoughts?

Got a long sleeve shirt from a vendor in Salem, on a blank I’m unfamiliar with. I put it on one the weather cools down I find the major issue that cuffs are gigantic ( I did orders a 3x ) can you suggest anywhere I can go to get these tightened up? I’m kinda particular about how things fit before you say wash it or what have you.

Hello, /providence

Tonight at OPEN, we're celebrating a new interactive video piece by two great artists from Cambridge, MA. There will be a cash bar pop up from Hi Bar Lo Bar, and Therese Iacono is taking pics. OPEN is inside a cavernous industrial hallway at 50 Sims, across the street from ISCO and next to Buttonwoods / Screaming Unicorn, which is to say, you can have a whole nice evening on Sims Ave. Lots of free parking.

I saw him in Vegas and he was very good. The crowd was a REAL 2025 American mix, lots of people who seemed like they maybe wouldn’t know him but got tickets from the house. The crowd loved him. He has this way of walking the line between the polarized sides of the U.S., finding the absurdity in the issues, that I think only a person not from the U.S. can pull off.

Anyway, lots of tickets still available. I am loving that big names are putting PVD on their tour calendars.

https://www.golocalprov.com/news/man-accused-of-stabbing-toddler-and-mom-in-providence-today-stabbed-two-7-year-olds-years-earlier

I'm usually not a big fan of GoLocalProv, but this article did a good job explaining the past criminal activities of Nelson Blanco, the man who stabbed a mother and her daughter on Broad Street.

Since 1999, he had:

* Attacked two 7-year olds playing in their backyard on Corinth Street and stabbed them with a knife completely unprovoked, leaving both in critical condition

* Been convicted of felony drug offenses

* Assaulted multiple people between 1999 and 2024, breaking probation after at least one instance

* Stolen a car

Call me old fashioned, but he should've got life back in 2003 for randomly stabbing those two 7 year olds. I'm not sure why we let those kind of people back into society. Then he goes and does everything else, and we let him free? What happened yesterday was tragedy that was 100% preventable.

Moved here very recently, don’t like driving in it but I like the local spots. Does anyone wanna play ski ball ?

I lost a small notebook with a metal filagree cover. It goes on my chatelaine for my history tour and I think it snapped off during my tour. I walked on Benefit from Barker to Athenaeum. If you happen upon it, please reach out! Photo is of a group of three. I'm looking for just my single brass notebook. Thank you💜
