Leather book in a medium brown, with a silver painted logo on the lower right corner that says GI

Inside of the book, contains a golf log with various golf terms I have no idea what they mean lol

I made a leather bound golf log! Printed on that Mohawk Superfine 28lb paper so it’s fountain pen friendly and BUTTERY smooth.

Archival ink stamp pad next to a kneadable eraser and a notebook containing a stamp print of random texture, pill bottle top that says, “Open, push down & turn, close tightly” and a recycling symbol.

This gets my ZINE sense TINGLING

Super fun “stamp” collecting, collect textures wherever you go! And why yes, I am that weirdo smushing kneadable eraser into a random wall in public 😊

I needed a backing plates for my umpteenth hobby: bookbinding! But backing plates are stupid expensive and I don’t have the room or woodworking equipment, so I 3D modeled some!

Booklet cover “They Thought They Were Free” by Milton Mayer

Text sample from the book, “What no one seemed to notice, was the ever widening gap, after 1933, between the government and the people.”

I copy pasta-d a selection from this book “They Thought They Were Free”

It is both disconcerting and eerily familiar reading words written on a page decades ago that are currently happening

Message me for a digital copy if you want to print and distribute 💌

What doesn't kill you flares up and tries again

“biological sex” should refer only to having sex in a lab, knocking over microscopes and shit, contaminating every surface while scientists watch you and take notes

Cover of zine booklet with classic Grimm Brothers fairy tale illustration, the text/font has been modified to say “How to Change Ur Name” with Texas Edition listed below

Back cover titled Empty Houses, 1943 and 2025 on either side of a post from the Anne Frank Center of an entry of Anne Franks Diary: “Terrible things are happening outside…poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes, Families are torn apart; men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared” - Anne Frank (Jan 13, 1943) The people who turned Anne Frank in were following the law. The people who hid her were breaking it. Which side of history will you be on? Sources: unfold zine, printed on back side

The back cover

Zine with the text: History doesn’t repeat, it rhymes. Logo of ICE (dept of homeland security) and logo of the Nazi party (eagle over a swastika)

Page 1 listing brief description of what ICE deportation centers and Nazi concentration canes have in common: Overcrowded, disease, abuse, lack of medical care, forced sterilization, and Built for the mass detention of people based on group identity. Page 2 titled Overcrowded Nazi Germany: lack of sewage system, lack of ventilation, sleeping on floor, no hygiene access. US Deportation Centers: one shower for 50 people, lack of beds, poor ventilation, lack of clean clothes. This led to Disease: Nazi Germany: typhus, dysentery, tuberculosis US: COVID 19, flu, tuberculosis

Page 3 titled Medical Care: Nazi Germany obviously did give a f*ck Modern deportation centers have documented cases of: 1. Denial or delay of life-saving medication (cancer treatment, HIV treatment) 2. Medical request forms shredded by nurses, never seen. 3. Roxsana Hernandez (a trans woman) died of complications from pneumonia after being denied care Page 4 titled Abuse Nazi Germany: humiliation, verbal abuse, physical punishment, and rape by camp guards (and the SS) US detention centers: physical and sexual abuse of adults and children 1. Sexual Assault of Detained Migrant Children Reported in the Thousands Since 2015 (npr.org) 2. Many detainees describe being beaten, maced by center guards (& ICE officers)

Page 6 titled Forced Sterilization Nazi “doctors” performed all sorts of “medical experiments” including forced sterilization of individuals deemed “genetically inferior” under their eugenics program (Jews, Roma, and disabled people) *look up Dr. Josef Mengele 2020: whistle blower report - MANY detainees were either pressure or not informed of hysterectomies being performed on them under sedation. *look up Dr. Mahendra Amin Irwin County Detention Center Page 7 titled Racial Profiling Nazi Germany: Racial laws were used to target Jews, Romani, disabled people, LGBTQ+; Used DEHUMANIZING language: subhuman, rats parasites, vermin, pests, plague, criminals USA 2025: Targeting immigrants from Latin America, Middle East, Mexico (aka brown people) and NOT targeting Irish and Ukrainian communities; Uses DEHUMANIZING language: Illegal, invaders, criminals, aliens, rapists, drug dealers, murderers, predators. *if ICE is solely focused on criminals, why are they going into elementary schools?

Here we gooooo!

Many thanks to my racist, bigot coworkers who keep giving me ideas for zines 🫠

History doesn’t repeat, it rhymes.

Comparing ICE to the Notsee Party

Logos of four nonprofits/groups that can help in deportation

And here’s the back page! I wanted to include logos of the nonprofits/resource pages so ppl can visually recognize them if they need to

Three zines in blue, yellow, and red. Zines say “Deportation, Legal resources and tips” and “Deportación, Recursos legales y consejos”

Two pages in English on what your rights are even if you aren’t a US citizen

Two pages on what your rights are even if you aren’t a US citizen (in Spanish)

Legal Resources links in English and then Spanish

Every time I find a Q-tip on the ground I make a wish and eat the fuzzy part

Sorry to stalk your page but this is EXACTLY the type of energy I need in my feed ✨✨✨

Lesbo to lesbo, how do you feel about the term Pantry instead of roster?

I used to refer to my previous roster as the Pantry, open 24/7 self serve 💪

Everyone was referred to as foods: Hot Chocolate, Corn, Good Soup, Ladybird until they got to the name phase lol

Thots?
