The Stranger

The Stranger The Stranger is Seattle's Only Newspaper. The Stranger defines, defends, and sometimes defies the culture and politics of Seattle.

Our coverage arises from a resolutely urban point of view, offering a unique perspective on the topics that matter most to people who live, work, and play in Seattle. Our original news reporting is relentless and outspoken. Our smart, funny entertainment coverage sets the tone of the city’s cultural conversation. And our innovative, interactive calendar, Things To Do, is Seattle’s most popular and

exhaustive source of event information. The Stranger is unpredictable, and we’re not always nice. But we are unmistakably on the side of our city and our readers. We love Seattle so much that we want more of it: more housing, more transit options, more bars and restaurants, more people. We take our reporting seriously—we won a Pulitzer Prize for feature writing—but we are just as committed to gleefully fu***ng around.

Trump crony Elon Musk once described America’s falling birth rate as “the biggest danger civilization faces, by far.” But the anti-abortion policies the right has espoused aren’t doing anything to incentivize more births. By making pregnancy less safe than it once was—and in the process complicating it even for people who want to grow their families—they’re ensuring the birth rate falls even further. https://www.thestranger.com/girly-pop/2025/03/20/79975516/baby-gloom

Washington had the chance to pass universal healthcare this year. Instead, leadership buried it. Again.The reasons they gave? Budget shortfalls. Federal barriers. The need for more study. The truth? The Washington Health Trust would save our state billions. The Universal Health Care Commission already supports this model. And there is no federal law stopping us from trying. https://www.thestranger.com/news/2025/03/17/79971060/we-could-have-had-universal-healthcare

In the latest installment of Asian Verified, columnist Michael Wong gets his elbows-deep Crawfish King’s messy and decadent seafood boils.

He writes: “When it all finally comes to your table, replete with metal buckets for your discards, it’s go time. Remember, you don’t eat this meal. You submit to it. There’s no way to look cool cracking open crawfish with your bare hands while wearing a bib with an anthropomorphic lobster who is also wearing a bib. So just lock in and tune everything else out. Appreciate the flavors, let them punch. Savor the sauce, find any and every way to get it in your mouth.”
