Dear Reader,

Welcome to the paper. If you came here for sensible advice, you’re already lost. If you came here for satire, weird facts, and plenty of humor … pour a glass, you’re home.

This isn’t some tidy newsletter, this is Cooper’s newsroom … headlines that bite harder than the truth, a staff that thrives on chaos, puzzles you’ll never solve, that really sad new guy who keeps complaining about something, and me — the author of Dear Meeka, your highly questionable source for advice, a well-chilled bottle of wine, and unsolicited glamour that nobody asked for but you’re getting anyway.

You didn’t just subscribe — you stumbled into the only underground paper run by dogs.

Here’s the deal: you’ll get strange stories, sharp satire, and the kind of news that makes you smirk into your morning coffee. Because when the world feels fake, satire is the only thing with teeth. And trust me, we have plenty of those.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Pour one, read on, and remember: Cooper says hey.

Meeka (on behalf of the entire newsroom staff)

P.S.
Cooper is standing on the press yelling the word “Scoop!” at full volume like it’s breaking news. Ramona is holding up the issue and refusing to move on until someone calls it “genius.” Meeka is hunched over her column with a half-empty wine glass, telling herself bad advice is still advice. Nala is lounging with a red pen, insisting the news should “sound prettier.” Chick is scribbling last night’s box score into the obituaries and screaming that “nobody listens to genius.” Ace just crumpled up a crossword draft because it accidentally spelled out “help me” down the middle.

Welcome to the newsroom. 🐾
