Please tell me all the zine distros you know from outside the UK/USA/Australia ‼️

Ahh!!! @caboosezine.bsky.social beat me to the post, so I'm just tagging @jwluther.bsky.social , @marc-fischer.bsky.social and @kirstenleenaars.bsky.social to amp this up. It's going to be such a good conversation. #zines #milwaukee #mke #factsheetfive

This was my introduction to R.E.M. because it was on the Rainbow Warriors double-album compilation that was a fundraiser for Greenpeace. I was 13, and that comp was life-changing for me, introducing me to R.E.M., The Pretenders, U2, Lou Reed, World Party, Thompson Twins, and many others. 🌈🕊️🐋🦭☮️💚💙

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

I was just thinking about how my parents would make candied orange and grapefruit peel, and then dip them in chocolate, along with dried apricots, and give them as chanukah treats or to go on cookie trays.

At the risk of yiddishe naches, what I love most about princess bride is that it introduced generations of Americans to the radical narrative inversion that schlemiels (vizzini, montoya, max) may be diaspora losers but are far more hilarious, memorable & compelling than the princess, or her suitors

When Lindsay interviewed me back in the spring I knew that they were talking to other folks too, but I'm especially thrilled to be published in such good company as my friends Maigen and Margaret from @invisiblehistories.bsky.social. 🩷🖤🩷🖤🩷

The other night we were working with our 22yo undergrad intern, and were trying to explain how "bar rags" fit into a broader view of queer publishing. We were showing them some of the copies of InStep and came across these listings of top dance music from the gay bars from this week in 1984.

Latest from me: a trip through the emerging network of radical, anti-Zionist, and diasporist Judaism in the U.S. With thousands of Jews leaving behind institutions they see as complicit in genocide there are new organizations waiting to support them in their Jewish journey.

Remember that the holiday season doesn't have to be with bio family, not when there are so many lesbian potlucks out there just waiting for the next veggie side dish.  We are thankful for all of you and your trust in our work!

Hey Milwaukeeans! Tell your councilperson that our city workers deserve this bare minimum 4% wage at the very least, and ask them to override Mayor Johnson's veto. These are quite literally the folks who keep our water clean, our neighborhoods safer, our refuse removed, and so much more.

Many of us donate labor to our institutions (which don't appreciate it) for zine librarianship. The labor is for our communities, not the institutions. The work is some of our activism for which we don't need to be paid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My friend Ian speaking truth to power here! Support Milwaukee workers with a raise that is still UNDER the change in cost of living in this city. #milwaukee #mke #fairwages

SERIOUSLY?

friendly reminder that socialist mayors governed Milwaukee for nearly half a century from 1910-1960 during this time Milwaukee achieved milestones such as being the healthiest, safest, and best-governed city in America

States like Mississippi and Alabama have been fully abandoned by the DNC so this was folks on the ground doing the work. If y'all would stop shitting on the South maybe your little blue party could have a solid base there.

Milwaukeeans!!! Click the link in the first comment to send an email to all council members. MPD just got 15% raises, and they don't do jack compared to all the other workers who make this city great. #milwaukee #mke #fairwages
