About

At Journal Absurdum, we want your bizarre. We want your paradoxes and your nonsense about love, society, people, things, your mother-in-law, your lack of a mother-in-law, and your argument against anything we have ever told you. Tell us that we are silly by being silly. Be irrational about everything that you love. We look for creative experimental pieces that will leave us scratching our heads but also pretty much in love with you.
