Workspace

3 Upvotes

Good morning fellow Pawtuckians (or should I say BucketHeads??)!

Has anyone had success utilizing & at the same time, supporting a local business as a Workspace?

I am looking for a Space to Work that is not from home (or the car) where I could also take occasional calls without disrupting others

Yes, CIC in PVD is an option but as I mentioned above, I would prefer a local business

Thank you all in advance!

Has anyone ever been able to get a newspaper delivered to them in this city?

6 Upvotes

I just moved to the Village Lofts, and tried to transfer my subscriptions to the Financial Times and the Boston Globe to here. Not a single paper has ever shown up. I've called and called and they are "dealing with the issue with the delivery providers," who seem to be the people who deliver both publications. It's ridiculous.

Have you ever had a paper delivered? Is it a real thing, or is it just something they advertise and don't do? They keep telling me to "read it online," but no, I won't. I read the Times and WSJ online; the reason I subscribe to either of those publications is to have a newspaper to hold in hand.

I feel like maybe 4-5 nights out of the week we hear fireworks around the area — and as parents with a new born — this is hellish and so disruptive — And they occur all throughout the night — a few here and then a few hours later a few more, sometimes through 2am. I cannot tell you how many times we put our little one to sleep and minutes later they’re up screaming because they were woken by these damn fireworks - please please please stop 🫠🫠

If you go outside and run a weedwhacker or a lawnmower or an electronic whatever at 7:15 am - YOU SUCK.

I’m up and getting ready for work! But I’m thinking about all of the people that are on summer hours, elderly, or just worked all night. You have to do that NOW? 😔

Cape Verde Liberation Forum!

The Blue Sharks’ meteoric rise during the World Cup made headlines across the globe and brought worldwide attention to Cabo Verde’s strength. But the islands have far more to teach us than football alone: Cape Verdean history is intertwined with the struggle for liberation from oppression and for unity with oppressed people across Africa and the world!

Join us to learn about Cabo Verde’s roots in the liberation struggle led by Amilcar Cabral and the PAIGC (The African Party for the Independence of Guinea-Bissau and Cabo Verde). Study with us and discuss what this history can teach us for our world today!

šŸ‡ØšŸ‡» Friday, July 10th @ 6PM
šŸ‡ØšŸ‡» Cape Verdean Museum - 618 Prospect St., Pawtucket, RI

Pawtucket Thank you

17 Upvotes

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone from Pawtucket.

From Wednesday through Friday, I was collecting signatures to get on the ballot at the Stop & Shop in Cumberland and met people from all over North and Central Rhode Island. Then I met so many more of you at the Pawtucket fireworks last night and again at the Providence fireworks tonight.

Nearly everyone I've met across Rhode Island has been wonderful, but you have been, by far, the warmest and most welcoming people I've met while collecting signatures. You've made this journey a lot more memorable than you probably realize.

Thank you.

Almost a dozen vehicles (police & otherwise) in the Broadway area near Sabin (near the five way intersection). And they are being aggressive, a cop stopped in the road (I thought he was eyeballing me) but no he watched a brown girl walking out of that phone place for like an uncomfortable amount easily a fifteen count and then turned around. The light turned and I left I hope she's ok

This dog is wandering around the neighborhood behind Rhody Hen off of Prospect Street. He seems very scared of humans but was very interested in meeting my dog. I tried to corral him into my yard, but he was not having it! If anyone has any information on this dog, feel free to DM me.

Law Offices of Mitchell Garabedian - Press Conference June 17, 2026

I have represented clergy sexual abuse survivors for decades.Ā I have represented and do represent Diocese of Providence clergy sexual abuse survivors.Ā This week a courageous clergy sexual abuse survivor informed me that he was allegedly sexually abused by the late Fr. Raymond C. Theroux.Ā The alleged sexual abuse took place in approximately 1996 when the survivor was about 9 years old on two separate occasions in the rectory of St. John Vianney Parish, Cumberland, R.I. after rehearsal practice for first communion.Ā Fr. Raymond C. Theroux is the brother of former Vicar General (from 2005 to 2010) Monsignor Paul D. Theroux who reportedly was a diocesan spokesman on clergy sexual abuse cases and has worked along with attorneys relative to the previous compensation program and settlement. He often listened to survivors' accounts and offered an apology.Ā  Ā  Ā Ā Ā Since none of this information concerning sexually abuse by Fr. Raymond C. Theroux was in the Attorney General’s report, Bishop Lewandowski should immediately publicly release all of the canon law 489 secret files so that survivors can obtain validation and the truth about what the Diocese of Providence, Bishop Gelineau and former Vicar General Monsignor Paul D. Theroux knew about Fr. Raymond C. Theroux sexual abusing a child.Ā By not releasing all the canon law 489 secret files immediately, Bishop Lewandoski is treating the canon law 489 files like the Epstein files. Consequently, survivors are being re-victimized through a cover up.
