sheer spite is pretty terrible at making money but sometimes ok at moving money to other people, and i feel grateful for the opportunity to do so.
text reading "$1700 to writers in gaza" with an image of four zines by authors in gaza
did some math and figured out sheer spite was able to move just over $1,700 last year to the three Gaza-based writers we distribute:

“Zines are really like this little atomic unit of freedom of the press with simple pamphlets that you just pass around. It begs the question of whether the prosecution believes that we should have a First Amendment in the first place” #ZinesAreNotACrime
—Lydia Koza, wife of defendant Autumn Hill
They also allege that the box contained six incendiary zines, which you can get here to help pay for Des' defense.

Have you read Molly Gloss' books? I really like them for this!
You can download the zine, “Don’t Just Do Nothing: 20 Things You Can Do to Counter Fascism — Yes, You! Yes, Now” by Cindy Barukh Milstein here: sheerspite.ca/product/dont... @sheerspite.bsky.social 5/9
When I'm chatting w people at my table I as much as possible ask them if they also make zines, bc it is fun to hear about things people make, or help them feel empowered to make stuff if they don't, & the amount of people in the last few years who say they heard about zines in a college class is 📈

Just got my Public Lending Right money from Canada Council. And for the firs time ever, it's pretty good money ($1500). This is thanks to you taking my books out at the library. Keep doing it! And do it for your favourite authors! Even if you don't read the books!!
Can we help our pals @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social expand their programming and build a fabulous workshop?

this is so profoundly impressive! i wish you could also pay yourself but i fully understand how much money there isn't in cool zine projects 💜
!! so cool!
every day we wake up to new confirmations that reclaiming the means of production is how we get free. make pasta, make zines; make paintings and gardens and fresh bread and friendships. make a future you can hold in your own uncommodified hands.

If you don't like what's on offer, make your own thing. I really wish more people would do this.
I wrote about how and why to run an in-person zine distro, something I did and enjoyed from about 2012-2016.
I recommend it! tbh it's a lot easier and more fun than running a distro via an online store.
