Hey Free Rangers, I just voted for Zohran Mamdani, who I believe to be a true progressive. His potential victory will hopefully lead the sea change in NYC government toward social justice in this great(est of all) cities. On the other end of the spectrum, unrepentant...

Hello (hello, hello) Free Rangers, Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone home? Certainly not here, there, or everywhere. Which leaves us where we are, taking all our words from the books that you don’t read, anyway. Are we men or are...

Where do we go now Free Rangers, Oh, where do we go-o nowww? Wrong answers only. Is that still a thing? I enjoy it. The image that’s presented is conveyed as intended, but the reader is left with a prompt on top of the statement. It’s an implied yes, and- like a tiny...

Oh Damn Free Rangers, It really snuck up this year, or maybe it was already behind us. Has it been getting later and later in the season each vintage, or is this an illusion of context(s)? Should’ve realized from the sideways energy out there recently- and the uneasy...

Hey Free Rangers, It’s difficult to overstate how demoralizing it can be to have amassed the kind of wine collection (and knowledge) that I have when 9 out of 10 questions over the last 3 months have been one of these: 1) What do you have that’s cold? 2) Do you have...

It’s All Happening Free Rangers, The Great Infrastructure in conjunction with the Chamber of Commerce has declared it autumn, regardless of the 80+ degree temps that leave moist wrist prints on the godforsaken contraption upon which I currently type, tipping...
