Hello Mercury friends and lovers! It's been roughly 10 years in the making, but the Mercury finally, finally, FINALLY has a brand new website! "But wait a frikkin' chicken second," I hear you cry. "I DESPISE CHANGE OF ANY SORT!" Look, I get it: It's not always easy to navigate a new website, but just think of it like another indoor mask mandate. You put it on, struggle to breathe for three minutes, realize it's.
The Mercury provides news and fun every single day—but your help is essential. If you believe Portland benefits from smart, local journalism and arts coverage, please consider making a small monthly contribution, because without you, there is no us. Thanks for your support! Good Afternoon, Portland! It's a beautiful afternoon to vibe and listen to "Doom Revolver," a new song from local psych rockers the Shivas. It arrives thanks to Seattle-based indie label Suicide Squeeze's.
Hi everyone, and welcome back to The Trash Report, where I sift through some really very dark and depressing news to bring you a few juicy odds and ends and then add my cute commentary to hopefully bring a little bit of joy into an extremely sad time! (I put an exclamation point on that sentence so you can tell I'm cheerful about the whole thing! Love living through volatile moments in history, no notes!).
Hi there! I think we all had a good time with the inaugural Trash Report last week, so I’ve written another one and I hope it puts a little zig in your zag. A little cream in your coffee. A little button on your snowman, if you know what I mean. To enjoy, simply place this window over your Zoom screen window and pretend to be completely focused on your meeting. Good luck! My brain.
