EDITORIAL You must be hot, because you’re fogging up my helmet.
Space is looking pretty good right now. Long before the results of this election came in we figured that the next thing we do should be completely unrelated to politics (sorry about the last issue guys). That whole thing was really upsetting, more upsetting than we really thought it would be, and we decided to look forward and decide on a non-partisan topic for this issue. We held a VOTE and the winner of the POPULAR VOTE, the idea which GOT THE MOST VOTES, that the MOST PEOPLE IN THE CLUB VOTED FOR, the IDEA THAT THE PEOPLE CHOSE TO REPRESENT THEMSELF BEST... was space. Why space? Well, as any tumblr-browsing member of this club will tell you, us “artsy types” feel an undeniable and abstract attraction to “the void.” That’s what space is. Or isn’t. Who knows? We know pretty much nothing about space (or at the least we know just about as much as any college student who’s ever smoked weed and watched Cosmos) but it seemed kind of easy to not fuck this one up. You might have noticed a lot more original art pieces in this issue and the last, thanks mostly to our refurbished art department and new Art Director Joseph “Handsome Joe” Kolb. Shouts out to all our contributors, especially Victoria and Averie who are both young stars (pun intended). We’ve got a bunch of new, talented members this semester, and somehow most of them have managed to stick around this long! 2016 might have been utter shit in a lot of other regards, but overall Nonsense has managed to be pretty productive. So inevitably 2017 will begin with an executive order from Pr*sid*nt Tr*mp to shut us the fuck down. But space is a free speech zone, so I’d like to see him fucking try. You can’t burn a flag in space because there’s no oxygen. In space, no one can hear you meme. What’s your sign? ;) <3 Heather and Zach
