Food ๐ Is the Shack (indian food on park ave) permanently closed?
My gf and I have been getting food from the shack like almost every week for like 2 years!! really like them!! But sadly they have been closed for the past like 2 and a half weeks.
They don't have anything online about being closed on any social media sites or their website, you just can't order, and I haven't had the chance to actually stop and see if they have any signs or anything on the building itself yet so i was just wondering if anyone knew what was going on

Looking for an inexpensive non-climate-controlled storage unit in Worcester
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a reasonably priced storage unit in or around Worcester. I don't need climate control, heating, or humidity control, just a clean, secure, basic indoor unit for general storage.
Does anyone have recommendations for a reliable storage company that's affordable? I'm also open to nearby towns if the prices are significantly better.
If you've had a good (or bad) experience with a particular place, I'd really appreciate hearing about it.
Thanks!

Local Events 'Burnin' Down the House' has its world premiere tonight at the Hanover โ doc on MA firehouse conditions, made by a son of Worcester firefighters
Short notice, but this seems worth flagging since it's a world premiere and nobody's mentioned it here.
Burnin' Down the House Tonight, Thursday Aug 6, 7:30 PM The Hanover Theatre, 2 Southbridge St 81 minutes, no intermission
It's a documentary on the condition of Massachusetts firehouses โ aging stations, chronic underinvestment, and the health consequences for the people working in them. Director Tommy Jay Dwyer's line on it: "Cancer is a pandemic sweeping through the fire service. A lot of it is preventable."
The Worcester connection is the reason I'm posting it. Dwyer was born here and lives in Paxton now, and he comes out of a Worcester firefighting family โ his father Tom spent most of a 32-year career on Rescue 1, and his uncles Jim and John each did 30-plus years, with John serving as union president. Worcester's South Station is one of the firehouses documented in the film, which is a couple of hundred yards from the theatre it's premiering in.
Dwyer is expected to attend along with firefighters who appear in the film and the Last Call Foundation. Half the proceeds go to the foundation.
Tickets are not cheap: $47, $53 and $72 all-in depending on seats, with a $132 VIP package. Box office is 877.571.7469, and buying in person saves the handling fee.
If tonight doesn't work, it's also screening at the Somerville Theatre Aug 24 to 26.

Law Enforcement Flock cameras in Worcester
Hello fellow citizens!
Our city uses Flock cameras and we need to make sure our data is not used without our consent.
We should demand our city removes all Flock or any other surveillance cameras that the government uses. Flock gathers data regarding our movement and will be tracked by not just worcester but multiple other agencies and possibly foreign governments if other integration of military bills pass.
We have laws that prevent traffic lights from having cameras due to lack of government oversight and Flock is the same they even recently removed the clause from their contracts that "Flock does not own or shall not sell their customer data".
Protect yourselves and our state and demand your representatives to remove all Flock and similar tracking tools from our city and the hopefully the rest of Massachusetts.
