zine moderator, discord server moderator, fanartist, cosplayer, tired ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
hey-yo hi-yo! my name's leslie, i'm way too fond of math, a canon gay, probably like 80% bimbo, an escaped 2014 tumblr shitpost, certified emoji senpai, who you'd expect to own a reusable rainbow boba straw, and i forget to sleep a lot. ultimately i'm just tryna stay hype over the things i love ♡

the dots on your nose are called sebaceous filaments and they are supposed to be there
sitting down does not make a person fatter, the uterus leans forward when you sit (link to medical article, cw for internal anatomy diagrams)
eating activated charcoal can nullify the effects of meds like antidepressants and birth control (.org .gov)
witness me accidently descend into Super Mega Hell (i experienced the 6 stages of grief and then started watching supernatural)
listen i know i JUST admitted to watching supernatural but i'm begging you please read eyeshield 21 it's so good

recognizable zine details
these are by no means solely mine, but are typically found in the zine projects i moderate
no ships — in order to maximize audience reach, there is a strict no-ships (or no-other-ships) rule
thank-you/signature pages — filling up two pages at the end of the book, from zine contributors & mods to buyers & supporters
mods apply like contributors — unless a mod is also an invited contributor, if they want to participate in the zine as a contributor then they must submit an application and wait for the rest of the mod team to approve or deny their app
"drowning in zines" — when i'm the shipping moderator, the final packing update is my ultimate death bed: buried under approximately a hundred zines (while wearing the jacket of the alias i assumed, i.e. "Mod Kairi" "Mod Sora" "Mod Riku" "Mod Andrea")

zine resources
for everything else: zine there, done that
please be mindful of the workload when starting a zine. these projects are essentially 1 year-long small business with all the associated responsibilities. i highly recommend watching multiple zines closely before jumping in yourself, and be sure to pick a topic or fandom you want to enjoy more of!
