our upcoming issue is the NARCOTICS ISSUE! we're seeking submissions on drug culture and addiction, from the war on drugs to the pharmaceutical industry.

our intentions are never to glorify drug use. we trust contributors to handle these themes with nuance and respect, and to consider their own privilege and potential lack of lived experience when discussing these heavier topics

for this issue, you have a week to submit your final draft! please send us a proposal or rough draft by monday feb 12

presenting the garg's third issue of the year - SHARING IS(N'T) CARING! here we platform diasporic voices and emphasize that diaspora don't need to explain or share parts of their culture or identity for their cultures to be valued. this is an essential and ever-pressing one, so please pick up a copy online or on campus!

the gargoyle stands with Palestine against israel's crimes of apartheid, genocide and ethnic cleansing. we urge you to engage with Palestinian media and stay cognizant of the dehumanizing propaganda tactics pervasive in western media. please visit the sources we have provided in the Palestine library document found in our carrd (link in our bio) 🇵🇸

Good evening, garglings!

Our upcoming issue will focus on the conceptual idea of "sharing," diaspora, and which parts of identity stay or are lost in translation. Here we welcome topics such as community and (hyper)individuality, the line between appreciation and appropriation, capitalist bastardizations like "profit-sharing," and our own personal experiences and relationships with our homes/the world.

We are also seeking COVER ART for this issue! More info on slide 3 :)

For your articles to be considered, please send us a proposal or draft by Monday, Oct 2. If you choose to submit a proposal, please follow up with a draft by Wednesday, Oct 4. More information on the fourth slide.

Our Story

The Gargoyle is University College’s greasiest biweekly student newspaper. We are a paper that believes sometimes you should be angry, sometimes you should be loud, and if you have not had a voice before, you deserve a voice. We don’t give print space to bigots and we don’t feign neutrality on issues of social justice.

Please keep your arms and legs inside our custom-issue hugbox at all times.

"University of Toronto's greasiest and gayest paper, 100% Guarantee" - Penelope M. Evans
