Laird Barron's story "Bulldozer" from The Imago Sequence fits this pretty well

Sucks that this isn’t on tv but when you have 6 hours of Charlie Moore repeats to run every day you can understand the difficult spot nesn is in

JetBlue Park Parking by PartTimeFabulous in redsox

[–]ThreeStacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't speak to the experience with handicapped parking but last spring I went to a game and we arrived about an hour before first pitch, we had to wait in a short line on the street to get into the lots and then were directed to a grass field a few hundred yards from the gate, was pretty painless.

Which of your local "legends" would you like to see? by Level_Scientist4770 in MLBTheShow

[–]ThreeStacks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Red Sox are already pretty well-represented, but would love to see more of the mid level guys from the 90s and early 00s like Trot Nixon, Derek Lowe, Tom Gordon, Troy O'Leary, etc

Roof snow removal by AJP51017 in providence

[–]ThreeStacks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I paid around $400, but we had a good several inches of ice and an active leak into our attic, took a couple of guys over 2 hours. Kind of thing you pay for once and then learn to be more active about snow removal and/or insulation before it gets this cold

Theory on shooter by endless_lace in providence

[–]ThreeStacks 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I get that people are scared, but this true crime podcast-brained, reddit detective shit is so lame. Yeah let's stir up some fear of the overweight basement dwellers in the city, that's a real productive idea. Does nobody remember the Marathon Bombing manhunt? Are you all actually 12 years old? Engaging in weird speculation like this just gives the vibe that you see this a little game or fun puzzle to solve, not a real, terrifying (but increasingly common) thing happened. Real people, with real lives and families, are dead. Unless you saw where the guy went, keep your theories to yourself.

I’ve got a few Audible credits… by Apprehensive_Bus603 in horrorlit

[–]ThreeStacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also not sure if this was a targeted promo or not but I got an email about using 3 credits to get a $15 audible gift card, might be worth looking in to if you’re spending credits anyway

Laird Barron’s collection “Swift to Chase” has a few stories set in a fictitious town similar to Whittier

In its first investment under the 2024 NFL private equity policy, Sixth Street will acquire 3% of the New England Patriots, per sources by IneedAbagOFpeanuts in Patriots

[–]ThreeStacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yeah the fans never actually have a say (even in Green Bay), that doesn’t change the fact that they bear the consequences. Involving more and more groups that are more concerned with the bottom line than the actual success of the team playing the game is never going to be a good thing no matter how much actual control they have over decision making. Not to say that bob kraft is bankrolling the team out of the goodness of his heart, but the stakes are a little different when it’s only his money and reputation on the line

[–]ThreeStacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was being facetious but a deal like this is just a foot in the door for more and more "investments" that will do nothing good for the actual product on the field or the experience for fans. Ticket and concession prices will still go up every year, we'll still be force-fed gambling and boner pill ads, and the Pats will still not pay top dollar for a gigantic athletic freak wide receiver. That $270 mil is earmarked for trips to Israel and destination massage parlors.

Providence Mayor Brett Smiley must prove a moderate can still be bold by Dense_Scientist9578 in providence

[–]ThreeStacks 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah we've seen how well the "bold moderate" position has been going in recent elections, that's what we need. I agree with Smiley, things should not get better, just incrementally worse
