Chill Subs says good things. Flair by @miriamcalleja.bsky.social ✨✨

All I know to do when things are Very Bad is make art with more artists. I hope my little lit mag @zinemachine.bsky.social (launched today!), brings you what it’s brought me—an insistence that there’s so much brilliance, cleverness, humor, & beauty. That it’s never far away.🩷 zinemachine.com/the-mag

I’m super psyched for this new publication that is an online mag AND a literal vending machine that dispenses awesome zines made by real artists. If you’re in the Indianapolis area, you can visit one of the actual zine machines at Tomorrow Bookstore. (I really wish I lived closer 😭)
