Beer Reviews
Last year, around this time, we discussed how to avoid green beer while celebrating St. Patrick’s Day. Most of you listened, your lives have prospered, and success greets you at every corner. A few of you could not resist the hype, so now I have to take time away from my important beer snob duties to fix the damage you’ve done. … read more

Dear Dickheads – March 2014
Have you ever had one of those days when you don’t wanna wake up? One of those days when everything is fucked, everybody sucks? And you don’t really know why, but you want justify ripping someone’s head off? Well that’s how I feel when it snows in Utah. … read more
Skate Photo Feature: Eric Nguyen
Last June, I went out shooting with Eric for the first time. Actually, I think it was the first time we had even met. We found this nice gap Downtown and Eric got right to it, throwing switch heelflips. … read more
Snow Photo Feature: Harrison Gordon
The red, fiery flame of the ginger torch burns bright, and it is my not-so-humble opinion that we should place it in the hands of one Harrison James Gordon. Mark my words, and sleep well knowing a new king will soon be crowned. … read more

According to my drunk friend, Danny, who is an RSL season ticket holder and sometimes takes me to games, Nick is “like, the best dude ever!” So I figured I’d better interview him. … read more
Princess Kennedy: Dead, Wrapped in Plastic—A Kat Martin Original
Becoming re-obsessed with Twin Peaks, posting nonstop about it on my various social medias, my fabulous artist friend, Kat Martin, suggested immortalizing myself as “dead, wrapped in plastic” in a piece of art. Kat Martin is an artist who, even though you may not realize, you’re most likely familiar with—because she’s part of every arts festival, craft fair and farmer’s market. … read more
Creature Feature: Jezebel Jet’s Bad Kid Origins
SLUG’s bi-monthly online column, Creature Feature, has followed the Bad Kids from their raw, youthful days to the brilliant, thriving queer constellation it continues to be. They are a vital force for queer voices in the face of today’s hesitancy toward all things goofy and sexy and weird and fun. For its sixth installment, SLUG spoke with Jezebel Jet about becoming her comic book alter ego and being the Bad Kids’ first female performer. … read more
Skivenge
I felt compelled to defy the disingenuous liberal attitude that snowboarding connotes for me, but also to redefine skiing as something other than being for older folks, faux, white thugs with saggy ski pants and trust-fund frat babies. Though I know it’s an expensive hobby, I romanticized the days when “ski bums” lived up to their name, and wanted to re-appropriate skis and poles from privileged means for entertainment to weapons of carnage to pillage the ice amid mountainous splendor. … read more
