it's not possible to sum up everything that went into this in just a few words. this is and the world didn't end, a transgender zine.
the first publication was planned on october 19, 2023, and went into publication around january of 2024 (i think)
it was originally supposed to be published around trans awareness week, but we didn't meet that mark.
authors may have used pseudonyms for anonymity. we ask that you respect that decision.
And anyway, it’s the same old story – – –
a few people just trying,
one way or another,
to survive.

Moth (they/them) was the president of the 2023 McLean GSA, and could possibly be credited for ideas and a whole lot of running around and panicking. They started this zine in an effort to help young queer people get in touch with the roots of the queer movement, and to avoid censors. They hate censors.
This zine would not have been possible without the immense efforts of midnight (she/they) who is responsible for practically all organizational efforts (google sheets, getting eveyone's emails in the right place, imbedding the zine online), helping Moth make decisions so that they wouldn't take 50 years to do things, as well as making the magic of code work its miracles.
