Borders Crossed
How do you feel about the rise of “passport bros”? A friend of mine rearranged his life after his divorce and now spends about half the year overseas dating. He insists it’s not exploitation or colonialism — just a life hack — since his income goes three times as far abroad. He’s basically able to live […] The post Borders Crossed appeared first on The Stranger.

Slog AM: Bellevue Bans Protests Over Gaza War, Yakima Latinos Are Safe From Redistricting (for now), and Washington’s Largest Anti-ICE Prosecution Goes to Trial
Bellevue Bans Public Protest After Citizens Oppose Genocide: Democratic US House Rep. Adam Smith has attracted a lot of controversy for his belligerent foreign policy over the years, particularly the Gaza genocide. While Bellevue City Council didn’t mention Smith, he confirmed he talked with the body. The BCC found this public opposition so galling that […] The post Slog AM: Bellevue Bans Protests Over Gaza War, Yakima Latinos Are Safe From Redistricting (for now), and Washington’s Largest Anti-ICE Prosecution Goes to Trial appeared first on The Stranger.

The Seattle Opera Hosted Its First Official Furry Night
Writing and photography by West Smith Furries are everywhere. That’s the biggest lesson I took away from attending my first furry convention earlier this year. Before that, I think I still carried some lazy stereotype in my head about the furry community being made up exclusively of Reddit-dwelling teenagers. Then I got there and met […] The post The Seattle Opera Hosted Its First Official Furry Night appeared first on The Stranger.

Nilu Jenks Says She’s the Progressive in the District 5 City Council Race
It’s been ten years since Seattle adopted a district-based city council. And for almost that whole time, District 5, which spans Greenwood to Bitterlake and North Beach to Lake City, has been stuck with Councilmember Debora Juarez. After Juarez stepped down, former King County Superior Court judge Cathy Moore was elected in the 2023 conservative […] The post Nilu Jenks Says She’s the Progressive in the District 5 City Council Race appeared first on The Stranger.

The History of the Broadway Theater
Why did we do this? Read our case for making the marquee a landmark. The building itself, a wood-frame of average quality, is not special. But its green and cream interiors trimmed with silver must have seemed so to a Seattle Daily Times reporter in 1911, when 201 Broadway Avenue East was taking its first […] The post The History of the Broadway Theater appeared first on The Stranger.

The Old Broadway TheaterMarquee Should Be a Landmark
In February, news broke that McDonald’s had filed for a permit to spend $750,000 to turn the old Broadway Theater (once our most fashionable Rite Aid) into a fast food restaurant. We groaned a collective groan. McDonald’s doesn’t just move in. They turn storefronts into a wash of grays and blacks, with ever-growing golden arches.

Slog AM: Another Dead Whale in Washington, The Christians Take DC, and Is The War On?
How are those US-Iran negotiations going? They’re stalled. After a Sunday call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Donald Trump posted on social media: “For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them.” Monday, Iran’s foreign ministry said it had responded to the […] The post Slog AM: Another Dead Whale in Washington, The Christians Take DC, and Is The War On? appeared first on The Stranger.

Our Regional Homelessness Authority Is in Deep Trouble
When an independent audit last month found that the King County Regional Homelessness Authority (KCRHA) was running a $45 million deficit, including $13 million in funds unaccounted for or overspent, the public outrage was palpable. The forensic evaluation was damning, describing KCRHA’s internal accounting processes as “weak” and lacking many basic cost controls. Local officials […] The post Our Regional Homelessness Authority Is in Deep Trouble appeared first on The Stranger.
