https://peertube.wtf/videos/watch/3e5e3cbb-37fa-4756-8bd9-7ddd1b007632 Happy International Zine Month 2025! The holiday was inaugurated by Alex Wrekk in 2009, and now, every July, zinesters from around the world celebrate diy publishing and creativity all month long. Each year, Alex (or another zine community member) creates a prompt list of 31 ideas for zine-y activities. In today's video, I go over the IZM2025 prompt list and share some of the zines I'll be reading this month. #izm2025 Zines are diy publications typically reproduced using a copy machine. Stemming from punk, underground, fandom, and activist subcultures, they're an accessible way to share your feelings, thoughts, skills, or art with the world. My name is Dayna and I'm passionate about making zines — and helping to build community around them! On my channel, I share my own zines as well as those sent to me via snail mail, and chat with you about diy culture. ✂️ Learn more about #zines, check out my zines, dive into more zine reviews, and read my blog at https://catmothcrow.com 🐌 catmothcrow is made possible thanks viewers like you! 🐌 Members of the Snail Mail Society help support the channel through their patronage.
