What's wrong with "weird"? It means: fateful, uncanny, magical. It's never properly been an insult, and those who misbelieve otherwise and deploy it in a pejorative fashion accidentally do that which they so label a favor by avoiding it - nothing ruins a small, special space like an influx of people who neither understand nor care what makes it special.

Nothing is wrong with it, it’s just subjective. Being subjective is usually not the domain of journalism (outside of op-eds).
