Beware the Wrap-Thieving Ostrich

Dear neighbor, I know you saw five-foot-two-inch me struggling. Stretching and straining in vain to get my fingers around the last spicy lentil wrap at our neighborhood Trader Joe’s. Its delicious sauce calling to me from the very, very back of the top shelf in the prepared foods section. Oh yes, I know you saw […] The post Beware the Wrap-Thieving Ostrich appeared first on The Stranger.

Pop Loser: Josie and the Pussycats > The Beatles

Welcome back to Pop Loser! This week, Ben Gibbard pissed people off by saying that the Velvet Underground is better than the Beatles. While I wholeheartedly agree, saying that anyone is “better than the Beatles” is a tired rage-bait tactic. But while we’re here, I also believe that Josie and the Pussycats are better than […] The post Pop Loser: Josie and the Pussycats > The Beatles appeared first on The Stranger.

Dear Hendrix

Dear Hendrix,  As you’ve noticed by now in these letters, I’m obviously a very devout, religious person. If nothing else, I believe that spirituality is the foundation of a good… oh, who am I kidding?

Slog AM: Local Journalists Win New Contract After Strike, Mayor Wilson Endorses Candidates in Legislative Races, and SCOTUS Upholds Birthright Citizenship, Trans Sports Bans

The justices also greenlit the president to fire the […] The post Slog AM: Local Journalists Win New Contract After Strike, Mayor Wilson Endorses Candidates in Legislative Races, and SCOTUS Upholds Birthright Citizenship, Trans Sports Bans appeared first on The Stranger.
