I suppose you could cut this pic out if you wanted!!!!

Mad trees are just normal trees on a world where everythings insane

This print ad in "Rolling Stone" from 1988 feels like it belongs in "Der Stürmer" in 1938

More remarkable / foreboding old Rolling Stone cover items:

Going through old Rolling Stone cover blurbs is a real trip from the vantage point of 2026! To wit, this, from 1994's issue #685:

Nearly all of these old Rolling Stone issues have cover-blurb juxtapositions that remind me that (a) fascism's rise in the USA goes waaaaay back, (b) lots of reporters valiantly tried to warn everyone else, and (c) the 90s were just a better time for mass-marketed music To wit:

Truly amazed by this 1969 print ad* in Rolling Stone for Van Morrison's ASTRAL WEEKS *which I divided in half for readability's sake

Well my goodness, there's no need for ad hominem attacks, cover blurb from Rolling Stone #704:

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Wow. So true, bestie

Sting timeline cleanse

Wow, Rolling Stone really did Billy Dee dirty here Real talk: the cover shoulda just been him looking sexy??????

Ah, the golden age of magazine advertising You open this issue of Rolling Stone and are greeted by a really mean Nike ad that goes on for not one, not two, not four, but ~~SIX~~ PAGES Followed by a true "graphic design is my passion" two-page ad for Philips electronics

Rolling Stone asked a bunch of musicians what their favorite albums of 1998 were, and Steven Tyler's list is truly chaotic

WELCOME TO THE PAST WELCOME TO MY NEW ALT WELCOME TO "OUT OF CONTEXT MAGAZINES" @oocmags.bsky.social

Downloading the entire archive of HUSTLER (for the articles, mommm, now get out of my room), and there's a 1976 spread of a trans woman? Named Josephine?? Complete with girldick??? She looks gorgeous, but also the intro text implies she detransitioned right after the photo shoot?!?!?! Many questions

We used to have proper magazine journalism in the USA

Self-defense is important, ladies

Yikesaroonie, Hustler!

lmaooooooo @ at this poll/infographic from Wizard Magazine's April 1998 issue:

Hustler Magazine, February 2009

A truly adorable interview/photoshoot with Rick Moranis (!) from Disney Adventures #1, November 1990:

Impossible to read this little snippet from Disney Adventures #2 and not think of The Corey Hotline

I know I say this a lot lately since I've been on my media-pirating jag... ...but MAN, we REALLY used to have proper magazine covers in this goddamn country

Stumbled upon an early media cameo from Larry Kudlow in a Jan. 1977 NYMag article about bonds The photo is cracking my shit up

Summary for the newly opened STAR WARS in @nymag.com's movie listings for their June 6, 1977 issue Hilarious that Harrison Ford doesn't even bear mentioning

If only someone had shown this ad to the Neanderthals in time...
