Issue V: Jabberwocky

October 2023

RTS I5 COVER.png

jabberwocky

noun

     invented or meaningless language; nonsense.

     "the translation was slow and full of jabberwocky"

 

In an era of scientific advancement, creatives and writers are being pushed to the background. Writers churn out content, making each piece more philosophical and poetic than the next. Often, writers are pressurized to write flawless descriptions that showcase a command over the English language that us ordinary mortals do not hold. 

​

This pressure is especially heightened on teenagers and youngsters, who are expected to have everything figured out and write deep pieces, and it's so much that people often forget that we're literal kids. 

​

This issue is to remind our young audience that it's okay to be goofy, it's okay to enjoy "cringe" things, its okay to make immature silly jokes. You're still a kid, and you don't need to know everything. 

​

On behalf of the entire team of RTS, I hope issue v: jabberwocky takes away some of the pain and stress of life and allows you to relax and laugh a little. This issue is entirely based on nonsensical, funny and wacky quotes that we hope will bring a smile to your face in their interpretations. From scientific irony to unhinged rants against carrot cake, this issue truly will take you on a journey. A journey we hope you will enjoy.
