I wrote “Okada Boys: Is there punk in Nigeria?” for my zine #ShotgunSeamstress in 2015. It was a short but meandering exploration of subculture in the country my parents immigrated from.
At the time, I wasn’t aware of any actual #punk bands in #Nigeria, so I wrote about a stud-and-leather wearing pop star named #CharlyBoy who is famous for not only his music but his unorthodox lifestyle. At the time I wrote the article, he had been in the news for his work organizing okada (motorcycle taxi drivers).
Today, a decade later, I finally found out about a #NigerianPunk band through @cybeardjm called “1 Last Autograph.” They formed in 2014 and are now defunct: https://m.soundcloud.com/1lastautograph

Who all would be interested in doing an Odd-Sized Zine Jam in May?
I don't have any specific rules in mind except to make a zine with an unusual size/layout -- with an option to help beta-test the new Zine Arranger* update by using one of the new sizes/configurations in that.
But I would also love to have some co-facilitators, so if you have additional ideas for prompts or challenges, I'd love to hear them!
Have you ever made your own #zine? Short for magazine/fanzine, the term refers to making non-commercial, small scale publications - an easy, accessible way to share ideas, art and knowledge. It’s also a great format for #CoCreation!
Which is why UAC artist member @seraf (who you may know from their project #Fermentorskab), is co-facilitating the making of a collaborative #zine about imagining a food utopia! Together with the #FoodJustice group at #MellemfolkeligtSamvirke #Aarhus
Assembled and shipped my zines for #fedizinefest2025 !
Those babies will premiere for the fedizinefest in July, the physical zines bundles are already claimed but there is still the digital ones if you'd like a pdf.
After July i'll open a shop with the rest of the physical zines
I have about 15 zines extra! let me know if you want top prio on a zine (not that i expect that much demand lol)
Le shop aura aussi des pdf en francais
Here's a screen-viewable copy of The Pandemic Never Ended: Safety for Harm Reductionists and lovers: https://online.fliphtml5.com/uppam/pkyq/#p=1
It's presented as an animated book you flip through, and there's no option I can see to download a print-version of it.
Someone has created a PDF* from this flip-through version, which is good to have, but the PDF has (somewhat distracting) shading at the edges of the pages because of the filp-through-a-"book" interface that it comes from.
It would be really awesome to have a print-quality version of this to distribute. Any ideas of how we could access one?
Boosts appreciated for reach! ️

* There's a link to the PDF and the screen-viewable copy in this zine directory: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CONH_Vx-PtEU6D479Iw24FB7S4RnnXFAbtdp94YoZ6o/edit?gid=0#gid=0 from here: Mask Bloc Seattle Covid Safety Printables/Resources directory: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Y-rEyXlCu9TlC67lfruQ3cc-lOkSEzQ1 (go to Printables by Other Groups > Zines)
Does anyone know of a PRINT-QUALITY version of this Covid safety tri-fold brochure, or how to contact the creators?
It's called:
The Pandemic Never Ended: Safety for Harm Reductionists and lovers.
And it's credited to:
"The Big Gay Guide of How Not to Die" and "Scrap Yard"
The mask bloc I organize with is sourcing Covid zines/etc to distribute at the Upstate Anarchist Book Fair in a couple of weeks, and I'd love to have this one as an option, especially if we can source a print-quality version.
If you know of one, or how to contact the creators, please let me know!

I started making zines last year. My very first zine was about nirvana the band the show. It's a mix of a introduction to the show, my many thoughts on it, as well as my artistic statement.
You can read it here: https://monazone.itch.io/nirvana-the-band-the-show-the-zine
I made some fix to it today and I wrote a postmortem about it to celebrate as well.
Read this short zine this morning. Very amusing, about a Chilean habit for people with bad manners.

The zine is up on my site!

If you thought it was cool, you can print it out, fold it up, and give it to your friends!
(Also please appreciate my alt text too. It was non-trivial to produce.)

Et Die Die Die qui m'est venu très vite en tête quand on m'a donné le thème du zine. ça faisait un petit coup que j'avais pas fait de collage vectoriel et j'avais très envie de collisionner certaines personnes en particulier
