Hell Yeah for weekends, Hell Yeah for zines, and double Hell Yeah for consent-based porn zines!!!! The creator calls it porn. Maybe it's more erotica? There's some gender fucking.

Like it thinks it's BETTER than pornography. But it's not, really. And it doesn't think that. It's just different. Maybe a little more 'arty.' Possibly less visual, though not necessarily. Here at QZAP we've got a good mix of both porn zines and erotica zines. While it's sometimes - [Pure Evil!](https://gittings.qzap.org/pure-evil/) - What better way to start your summer than with a little Evil?

Too often, society depicts queerness in only one or two ways. The pressure to conform to the Gay Image can be just as crushing as the closet.

Trust us- it can feel really, really good. Once you’re all screamed out, - [New Booty Shakin'](https://gittings.qzap.org/new-booty-shakin/) - A major way we get the word out about the Project and do a little micro-fundraising is through the sale of merch. Just like all those other cool bands and projects, it's the merch sales that help us to keep QZAP going financially. For 2017 we've got a couple of new designs, and have made - [What's Up, Doc?](https://gittings.qzap.org/what-s-up-doc/) - “Are you queer? Do check-ups give you chills? Do nurses make you nervous?

I believe intensely in the embodied experience of reading - that the triangulation between our gaze, the physical plane of the book, and our bodies is part of the meaning-making activity of consuming texts. How - [Queer Terrorist / Queer Tapette #4](https://gittings.qzap.org/qtqt/) - Queer Terrorist/Queer Tapette #4 is a bisexual punk manifesto that calls BS on the biphobia rampant in lesbian and gay communities.

It's been almost a year since we've posted anything to the blog. And what a fucking year. As we're still in the midst of a global pandemic, we're not doing a whole lot these days.

Initially published in 2001, this zine has since spawned a series of - [But I'm A...](https://gittings.qzap.org/but-i-m-a/) - A few nights ago we were sitting around the table with some of the zinesters-in-residence, finishing dinner and talking about lesbian movies of the 90s.

Sometimes it's challenging to even contemplate how to do it, though. When that's the case, finding a guide can be very helpful. Several years ago just such a guide was sent to us, and and - [AquaNet](https://gittings.qzap.org/aquanet/) - One of the ways of making harm reduction work better is to make sure that it's culturally appropriate. A great example of this can be seen in AquaNet Zine, by AQUA. It's explicitly by and for Asian and Pacific Islander (A/PI) youth, though some of the letters and other material will resonate across cultures. It's - [Fucking Queer and Getting Paid](https://gittings.qzap.org/fucking-queer-and-getting-paid/) - In light of the kerfuffle surrounding Amnesty International's draft policy on sex worker's human rights we thought we'd highlight a zine by actual sex workers talking about their expieriences.

It's unapologetic and intersectional in the way - [Sassy Satruday](https://gittings.qzap.org/sassy-satruday/) - Today's #QZOTD is Sassyfrass Circus #3. In some ways it's a diary comic, but it's also way more than that. She talks about a trip to Egypt and Israel, writes a brief history of Wimmin's Comix, and generally is an illustrative badass. J.Bee is currently the zinester in residence at QZAP. - [Montgomery Clift was Queer and IZLD](https://gittings.qzap.org/monty-and-izld/) - Today's QZOTD is a diary zine called Montgomery Clift Was Queer. In it Charlie chronicles some time spent in NYC in 1994, including dumpster diving, musings about Jack Smith, and forrays into record shops to buy jazz records. It's cinematic and staccato in it's rhythm, and a joy to read. IZLD! Tomorrow is International Zine - [Bang. Your. Head.](https://gittings.qzap.org/bang-your-head/) - GMS Headbanger first came to QZAP a few years ago. In a collection filled with odd and fascinating things, this grabbed our attention in a big way because heavy metal and folks who love it are not usually associated with queer lives (with some noteable acceptions.) Headbanger is the newsletter of the Chicago Gay Metal - [I Want To Go Where the Action Is](https://gittings.qzap.org/i-want-to-go-where-the-action-is/) - We had mentioned in passing that flyers made up part of out collection of ephemera.

The Compton Cafeteria and Stonewall were fuckin' riots, Y'all. Never forget that every gain the queer - [YELL about AIDS](https://gittings.qzap.org/yell-about-aids/) - Part of what made/makes ACT UP so effective was that it was a coalition (the "C" in the name) of diverse groups that were all focused on pieces of the AIDS crisis. One of those groups was YELL, the Youth Education Life Line. YELL was comprised of young folks from middle-school to university age who - [Hella Nervous](https://gittings.qzap.org/hella-nervous/) - June 1 is kinda sorta the official start of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere. With the advent of summer comes all the fun things like days at the beach, drinking orange soda, cruisin' hotties, reading trashy novels and celeb zines, and all the summer jamz. To kick off summer QZAP style, we'd like you to - [Gimme A "Q!"](https://gittings.qzap.org/gimme-a-q/) - Milo woke up this moring thinking about zir pals who used to be in the Pirate Cheerleaders. They were a local-to-Milwaukee troupe of radical queer and less-queer women who would perform around the city. They were angry and funny and feminist and kicked serious ass. They were also part of a larger movement of radcal - [No Apology](https://gittings.qzap.org/no-appology/) - No Apology #1 is very much a slice of it's time. It's a zine that's also a record label catalog. It's angry and self-righteous and a little smug in equal amounts. We're not really too sure what to say about it, other than it's new to the digital archive as of this week. - [Put the star in Trans*](https://gittings.qzap.org/put-the-star-in-trans/) - Here's this nice guy. He likes to wear skirts and dresses and women's clothes. It's not kinky for him... not really. He identifies as a transvestite, one of least talked about *** when we talk about Trans* folk. In his zine Blue Floral Gusset he talks about it. About wearing skirts full time, and how - [2QT2BSTR8](https://gittings.qzap.org/2qt2bstr8/) - Sometimes Monday is nice and easy, and sometimes it's rough and tumble. This particular Monday is more the latter. It calls for an extra shot of espresso, some queercore turned up real loud to drown out the traffic, and maybe that special scent of permanent markers tagging the bathroom stall, telling the world that indeed, - [Enough!](https://gittings.qzap.org/enough/) - I'm here drinking my morning coffee and an article pops up in my news feed about another trans kid who was bullied to death.

Seriously, though, let's talk about sex. Here at QZAP we're often talking about it in it's myriad permutations. While we're about as sex-positive as it comes, there's one thing that we just can't hang with. That's this whole "abstinence-only" crap that's been pushed on our young folks, both queer - [Lest We Forget...](https://gittings.qzap.org/lest-we-forget/) - There was a time when gays and lesbians stood up to opression for themselves and others. When their only goal wasn't to be assimilated into a patriarchal capitalist system that allows them to pass instead of creating real change. Out Of The Closets and Into The Libraries encapsulates histories of queer social movements where we - [Know Womyn's Land](https://gittings.qzap.org/know-womyn-s-land/) - In light of the fact that the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival organizers have announced that this will be the last year that the fest is held, we thought it would be appropriate to highlight U.S. Kweer Corps #10, where Hank urges us to look forward, and to make our own inclusive and critical festivals and - [Paris Was Burning](https://gittings.qzap.org/paris-was-burning/) - At one time Paris Is Burning was the hottest film around. A document to ballroom culture, POC communities, drag and community building, and of course Vouging. At around the same time that came out, so too did P-Form #23. In fact, this hot zine has a review of the film from when it was first - [Submission Accepted!](https://gittings.qzap.org/metadata-thanks/) - Thanks for submitting metadata about a zine! We will email you soon to confirm. - [Switch Hitters Unite!](https://gittings.qzap.org/switch-hitters-unite/) - 20 year-old queer zine declares "I'm A Winner!"

SO, we thought err on the side of offending no one and everyone by throwing up the Kill Rock Stars Winter 1995/96 catalog zine. If you haven't - [...in the beginning](https://gittings.qzap.org/in-the-beginning/) - After disco and Hi-NRG almost killed us and when "Wimmin's Music" didn't speak to us and before there was riot grrrl queer punk kids listened to a short-lived genre called homocore.

For those who - [Neon Angels on the Road To Ruin](https://gittings.qzap.org/neon-angels-on-the-road-to-ruin/) - "Highways hard in this modern world | Battered boys and shattered girls" Not Your Bitch #5 is riot grrrl raucous, smart and angry, and that perfect-for-right-now feminist slice of 1995.
