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.

Dungeon Crawler Carl begins with every building on Earth collapsing, which means Seattle is wiped out almost immediately. Nathalie Graham still insists it’s one of the most Seattle stories she’s ever read.

The locally based but nationally beloved sci-fi series follows Carl, a Queen Anne guy in heart-print boxers, and Princess Donut, his ex-girlfriend’s show cat, through an alien-run dungeon reality show full of talking goats, murderous mobs, and intergalactic corporate exploitation.

Around here, the fandom has gotten intense enough that local businesses are making themed teas and chocolate bars, and hundreds of people packed a sold-out Third Place Books event wearing cat ears, tiaras, and boxer shorts.

After weeks of ignored emails, Nathalie finally cornered author Matt Dinniman at that signing, where he talked about why the books resonate with readers and confirmed one important local detail: Carl’s Dick’s order is two regular cheeseburgers, fries, and a strawberry milkshake (not chocolate.)

ICE transferred the leaders of a hunger strike at Tacoma’s Northwest Detention Center to unknown locations just hours after the strike began, according to immigrant-rights group La Resistencia, which says the moves were retaliatory.

The strike was reportedly organized by Rogelio Enrique Bolufé Izquierdo, a Cuban detainee who previously helped organize another hunger strike at an ICE detention center in New Mexico before being transferred to Washington earlier this month. Now advocates say he appears to have been transferred again, and ICE will not confirm where he is.

Organizers say more than 200 detainees planned to participate in the action over conditions inside the GEO Group-run facility, including allegations involving religious discrimination, overcrowding, sanitation problems, and inadequate food.
