Got some time to read by the pool and don't want to bring out a monster 400-page novel? How about some short stories to whet your appetite?

Anthropods has you covered. 19 short stories that will definitely get you wondering what your pool is thinking.

@steveahlquist @RIAudubon @DonGrebien This is just one of countless examples of misleading, false or untrue statements being used by the Mayor, his Administration and confederates to justify their perverse, racist and environmentally reckless attempts at destroying Morley Field. https://t.co/r32IQApI9Y

Under Director Peter Alviti, RIDOT's work atmosphere is toxic – rife with bullying and fears of retaliation, union workers there say. The problem, they say, starts at the very top https://t.co/nI8F5Hz1K1

@CityofPawtucket If they’re so important, why are you neglecting Morley Field—the only park in my neighborhood, which you’re pushing to pave. We don’t need more parking for private interests. We need a ball park. #SaveMorleyField

A bold-faced lie.

Through their research, residents believe that Morley Field is not the only recreational or greenspace in Pawtucket that is facing or has faced possibly illegal conversion...

@the_transit_guy I wasn’t hallucinating! We were sitting in the basement and I could hear something outside but wasn’t sure it was a siren or someone’s car alarm.

A flooded Branch Ave. in Providence, RI. Much of the flood water came from the recently constructed Rt 146.🌧️🚙🚧

Dangerous surf & life-threatening rip currents expected for Western Atlantic coastal areas this week. Too soon to know additional impacts for NE U.S. & Atlantic Canada late this week.

@theyusetools There were so many other events this weekend & to your point on trips, the first weekend home after being gone a week and going to this event just didn’t work for me, (assumed) crippled RIPTA service notwithstanding.

Over 100 businesses and homes are threatened by the I-35 expansion plan. Adding lanes will only worsen the racial, economic, and environmental harm that the highway has inflicted on Austin since its construction.

We deserve better. There is another way.

If the cars are a danger to everyone using the road, maybe you should ban cars.

[TheSmitchell @TheSmitchell]

@JenStewartRI LOL. What a wild morning it was today 😅 I hope you and yours stayed safe!
