“I feel like the important work of my life going forward is to become comfortable, not only in my own skin, but in what I wear over it. And, in a larger sense, in the pursuit of pleasure, as an end. Without needing permission.”

The just femme & dandy mixtape will launch just in time for World Pride, then at a zinefest, & then who knows?! Pre-orders are closed while we catch up, but will reopen very soon. If you don’t want to wait, reach out & I’ll add it to the list!

As Felix put a record on, I started to look inside the jacket, it hit me. What I wanted was a collection of vinyl inserts without the vinyl (atm, anyway). It’s been a long road to get here & I don’t know what our future holds, but I’m so proud of what we’ve made.

I always knew I wanted us to feel like a mix of the floppy mags of my youth, whose pages we would rip out & tape on our walls, but blended with formal & DIY publishing styles, at home in a zinefest & a fashion or drag show & a bookstore.
