A self-described open-access journal for questionable methods, inconclusive arguments, and findings that remain emotionally significant.

For
Readers of academic satire and experimental journals
Worth noticing
It says submissions are reviewed by “no independent experts” and accepted once editors run out of reasons to delay.

Field notes

Its accepted methods range from close and distant reading to staring at something unusually long, downloading a dataset from curiosity, or building around a source found while procrastinating. It says statistical significance is neither required nor discouraged, and permits sample sizes from one to an amount that makes the author nervous. The editorial team lists “PP” and “Codex”; the issue schedule depends on material, energy, formatting, and whether documents can plausibly be called an issue.
