It is very plain who views creativity as a process of discovery and who views creativity as a checkbox to be endured en route to a product.

If you work in photography and/or graphic design, I have a question for you. When you're interviewing at a company, I would think they want to see your portfolio. Do they also ask you to do a (hopefully paid) project as an interview step?

We need more publicly owned 3rd places.

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year. It's for a science + art event. We can offer $500 for the gig. Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.

y'all have got to start making 'zines . I don't care if they're bad. Sometimes it's better if they are. I just need everyone who reads this to make a 'zine.

IMPORTANT reminder for when you print zines: Set your printer to "Scale: 100%" Many printers automatically resize to 94% or something, which will shrink the image and give you weird borders when you fold the zine. Scale: 100%.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

New zine! 💫 “Your Home on the Web” is a 16-page zine about low tech, low cost ways to make a simple website or blog. Notes for each platform include a description, key features, and pricing. mythicaltype.com/2025/11/23/y... #zines

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays: Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink. If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business. Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I'm made of stardust, but I still have to do chores.

Here’s a quick video that shows how I use a pencil mug to flatten my zines. Very simple, low-tech. But I’ve gotten a few questions about it, so I thought it was worth showing. #zines youtube.com/shorts/hSHsN...

📺 I’m re-watching Continuum and currently in season 3. It’s a show that starts out interesting and gets better with each season. And okay it’s a bit unsettling that it was made a decade ago and feels even more relevant in 2025.

Finished reading: Unthink by Erik Wahl 📚 I picked this up at the public library without knowing anything about it. The book is mostly made of up anecdotes and some historical references. It feels like a lot of snippets, which... https://kalikambo.com/2025/10/24/finished-reading-unthink-by-erik.html

People should absolutely be writing about how ICE's occupation of their cities is transforming life in these places, and they should be publishing it in print on paper - not just social media posts. There needs to be a record of this. Things are changing in measurable ways for the worse every day.
