Feminist zine Pop-up shop
Join us for an afternoon of shopping and zine-making! Recompiler Media and Microcosm Publishing are having a feminist zine pop-up shop on October 6 as part of Resolution Fest. We’ll have copies of recent issues of The Recompiler, a selection of BubbleSort Zines, work from Microcosm, zines by Sarah Mirk, knit hats by Sticks & Strings, cards and discussion from Amelia Abreu, and loads of stickers. Bring your ideas for a zine of your own — we’ll have supplies ready to go! Please RSVP to confirm you’ve read our code of conduct.
The Responsible Communication Style Guide – Funded!
The Responsible Communication Style Guide has been successfully funded. Thank you to everyone who contributed to make this happen!
Transcripts
We’ve started adding transcripts to our podcasts! If you’d like to see this continue, we need your support. The cost of commissioning a transcript is about a dollar a minute, which means for a typical episode we pay between $30-60. Our podcast doesn’t have sponsors like you might see elsewhere, because we’ve decided to focus on communicating as directly as possible with our listeners and readers. So here’s the pitch: pledge at least $1 each podcast, and if enough of you do this to cover at least half the expense of transcription for the podcast episode, we’ll make sure it continues.
Support the Podcast
If you enjoy the podcast, the best way to support it is by subscribing to the magazine or by making a contribution to fund our work.
