"There's a reason that fascists attack unions first. It's because the opposite of fascism is solidarity."

Yeah… Craphound was (originally) his zine in the late 80s/early 90s before he involved with the setting up of ‘boingboing’ (also initially a zine!!!)…

One article is particularly relevant to this audience: an interview with @pluralistic

‘The platforms got worse because we let them!’: Cory Doctorow on his fight to save the internet from enshittification
The author and cyber-activist argues that the tech giants have ruined life online. The only thing that can save the virtual world now, he tells Zoë Corbyn, is its users

Fine, I guess I'm getting around to downloading the archive of my 2004-2007 technoccult conspiracy craphound blog from the wayback machine to see what I was cooking

a screenshot of the free image software GIMP showing a mockup of the cover of Dotchke #8. a yin yang symbol has been rotated and cropped with tiny reverse-colored pixel icon images in the ‘tails’ of the two main shapes. an 8ball forms the black dot on the white side and a dodecahedron forms the white dot on the black side. a screenshot of the free image software GIMP showing a mockup of the cover of Dotchke #8. a yin yang symbol has been rotated and cropped with pixel dithering fading back to middle gray down the ‘tails’ of the two main shapes. an 8ball forms the black dot on the white side and a dodecahedron forms the white dot on the black side. the logotype feels bolder and more solid.

i was trying to mimic the Crap Hound clip art aesthetic with the first two covers, but have shifted on that idea.

a screenshot of the layout of the cover of Dotchke #5 a black and white pixel doodle zine. a large snail crawls along with three amphorae behind it. a body of water or the night sky is beyond. very small in the corner are two bread tags and a work boot. it’s a little more cohesive than it sounds, i promise.

I’m behind on everything, but finally had a chance to catch up on Cory Doctorow’s podcast Craphound (craphound.com).

Highly recommend!

I gotta resuscitate my mid-2000s technoccult craphound blog, but as a newsletter that just posts links to weird ass current events side-by-side with clips of mid-2000s anime that perfectly predicted those events 20 years later

Check out Cory Doctorow's set up at Craphound. He's written about how it's set up. He cross posts to everything, but that requires some custom scripts.

got a couple of cool illustration zines at Quimby's because 1) I might be in a huge bird phase right now, 2) this one ("church & state") is going to make fantastic style reference for certain segments of the graphic novel where I'm narrating in the style of devotionals I grew up reading
Two 8.5x11" zines by Craphound, full of collages of vintage illustrations. The closed one is "Owls & Crows", cover packed with fantastic bird drawings. The open one is "Church & State", open to a page with drawings of people praying. Allcaps text added to the page: "Who knows about all your sins? Selfishness, witchcraft, incest, disobedient to parents, drunkenness, deceit, false accuser, lust, whoremonger, stealing, pride, swearing, envy, unbelief, envy, gay, hate, lying, hating parents, whisperer, filthy talk, backbiter, pride, hypocrisy, worshiping false gods, lies, shacking, having an affair, hater of god, theft, murder, cheating, wanting something that belongs to someone else!" The facing page also has the text "Satan attacks the weak and disobedient Christian"

I need to refresh my online identity. I've been using this handle, which was named after my old technoccult conspiracy-watching craphound blog, 20 years bygone. It had a very particular esoteric meaning; but now the vortex is here.

3. Another goody: Craphound magazine. This was a 90s zine composed of pages and pages of goofy & surreal clip art, perfect for your countercultural flyer or Indy gig poster. Buy all of these and advertise your pirate radio station

that looks amazing and that back page art ! I loved the reference to Ray Gun ( was just looking at my summer 2000 issue the other day) . It also reminds me of the zine "Craphound" that had all the theme clipart.

Our Sean's public output these days seems to be just Craphound collections, which bring me joy, and Social Justice Kittens calendars, which do not. He designed two Firesign reissue covers and did a bang-up job. End of report thank you for your attention
