Charlie Harger

Harger: Pierce County forgot to charge me for a school levy, sent a letter blaming nobody, and wants $1,100 by November

I got a letter from the Pierce County Assessor-Treasurer, informing us of a "discrepancy" on our 2026 property tax statement. Not a mistake. A discrepancy.

Charlie Harger

Harger: My primary ballot is sitting on my microwave. If a politics nerd is cramming, the August primary isn’t working

Charlie Harger

Harger: The Seattle Times wants to ban the Blue Angels. I’ve changed my mind. They’re right

Thanks to The Seattle Times' editorial board, I've changed my mind. The Blue Angels don't belong in modern Seattle. Not because they're loud. Not because they're military. Because they're just too exciting.
