Sophia Plaschke
Editor
Sophia enjoys lurking in the shadows, haunting nightmares, and whispering into the night. When she’s not busy preying on the innocent, she likes playing board games with her friends, taking scenic drives in the countryside, and curling up with a good book.
Morgan Anderson
Editor
Morgan has spent her life contributing to the financial success of the Dr Pepper Snapple Group and narrowly avoiding kidney stones in the process. She spends her free time engaging in the Sisyphean process of cleaning her camera roll, documenting life experiences to share with her therapist, and creating playlists she will never listen to. Her current goal in life is to learn how to roll her Rs.
Indigo Mudbhary

When people find out that Indigo is an only child, they always say, “That makes sense!” She’s like pizza at the Ratty— not terrible, but definitely not great! And she’s okay with that!
Lily Coffman

Lily’s favorite show is Riverdale, she can tie a cherry stem with her tongue, and she falls asleep watching Cosmopolitan videos on the Snapchat explore section. Also, she’s from Waco, Texas and she won’t shut up about it.

Nyjáh is a highly skilled Youtube watcher, Twitter peruser, and humanities concentrator cosplayer, with a special talent in making obscure Spongebob references as a response to every event. What do you mean you aren’t familiar with the classic that is Season 5, Episode 19 “SpongeHenge”?? Don’t worry, she’s got a clip from it somewhere and once she shows you you’ll understand the true genius of her totally esoteric pattern recognition skills…

The New Yorker has rejected Evelyn’s cartoons 75 times, but her talents in pet portraiture, theatrical props, and public art are acclaimed across Wellesley, Massachusetts and all corresponding Facebook groups for suburban moms with goldendoodles.
Anya Kaladeen
Editor
Anya’s favourite pastimes include spontaneously breaking into foreign accents, making you guess her concentration, and acting like a pretentious, sexually repressed teenage boy (she would fight to the death for the Oxford comma). She has also been compared to a donkey on several (completely unrelated) occasions throughout her life. Make of that what you will.
Emily Farmer
Social Media Editor
Emily is so cool and sexy. Hahaha stop, you are too sweet. She has eaten a beaver before (Don’t ask her about it, it was lowkey traumatic). She enjoys long hours of hiding underneath the ratty pasta station, feasting on stray noodles.
Olivia Taylor

When Olivia isn’t pretending she can sing/act/eat garlic without feeling her tongue erupt into flames, you can find her struggling through chapters of vocabulary for CHIN0913 even though she knows she’ll never be fluent.
Emerson Rhodes
Staff Writer
Emerson watches car crash compilations to fall asleep ever since she was told that by someone she thought was cool and has been using it as a fun fact ever since. A populist at heart, Emerson can be found conforming and listening for more fun facts to steal.

Carys Edwards
Staff Writer
Carys writes diss tracks and boldly performs them directly to the recipient’s face. She identifies as a finger—a fake ginger—and proudly calls herself vegan, meaning she’ll eat absolutely anything… except steak, that’s just a little too rare.
Zora Penn
Staff Writer
Zora is from Brooklyn and seriously loves “the city.” She enjoys spending time with friends and takes great pleasure when people laugh the hardest at her jokes. She is also a pescatarian.
