I'm a writer and performer living in Seattle, where I'm an associate editor and columnist for The Stranger , for which I've written the pop culture-and-politics column Last Days since 1998. Outside of The Stranger, I'm the author of the solo plays Straight, Mansize, and Letter to Axl, which I've performed in Seattle and across the U.S. I'm also the world's foremost authority on the brilliant horribleness of Paul Verhoeven's Showgirls, performing annotated Showgirls screenings at film festivals across the U.S. and providing the commentary track to MGM's special-edition Showgirls DVD in 2004. A film of my show Straight is available from Netflix and other places like that.
