november is world ascii month!
NOVEMEBER IS AWESEOME.
I turned twentyone on the third,
I went to Vegas for the first time on the sixth
(not really, but the first time when i'm OF AGE)
Anti-Creative Records has it's first release on the fifteenth
I get to eat Tofurkey for my group of friends'
Anti-Thanksgiving on the twentyfifth!
etc etc etc
BUT BEST OF ALL,
IT'S OFFICIAL TEXT FILE MONTH!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
in celebration, we have a lot in store!
for example, the LEGENDARY iR file #300
will be released later this month!
HOOOOORAY!
in this file, just to GENERATE SOME INTEREST in
text files (besides impulse reality, since you
obviously read us), i decided to list some of
my favorites and regular reads. CHECK THESE OUT
OR PERISH, FRIENDS.
i'm sorry, i don't make the rules, that's how it works.
ACTIVE ZINES RECOMMENDED BY ME~!@!@#$
(ALPHABETICAL, BECAUSE I CARE ABOUT YOU)
-----------------------------------------
o Activist Time, Inc
http://flag.blackened.net/ati/zine/infomaniack.html
a very long-running zine put out by
Prime Anarchist. Insightful and humorous
political enlightenment
o confusions
http://www.hoe.nu/confusions
they haven't released an issue in a few
months, so maybe this should be in the
inactive zine list, but i hope not, because
trilobyte is awesome.
o Cult of the Dead Cow
http://www.cultdeadcow.com
cDc does a lot more besides producing text,
but they've been doing it for the longest
and they're responsible for influencing
numerous other text zines, past and present.
o Neo-Comintern, The
http://www.neo-comintern.com
anyone who reads iR should be fully aware
of n-com by now, brainchild of BMC (who
occasionally blesses iR with submissions!)
and if you're not aware, then you're a
worthless gutter tramp.
NON-ACTIVE (OR AS SOME WOULD CALL IT, INACTIVE)
ZINES RECOMMENDED BY ME!#!$#$
(STILL ALPHABETICAL, !!! )
------------------------------------------------
o Hogs of Entropy (HOE)
http://www.hoe.nu
with 1112 text releases, HOE is the most
prolific zine to date. without hoe's influence,
iR would not exist. mogel was a great editor
and a great friend, and wrote some of the best
textfiles ever (he also wrote for iR on several
occasions!)
o I Bleed For This?
http://www.textscene.com/archive/IBFT
this zine also payed a huge role in my interest
in the text scene. long before i was writing my
own textfiles, or really understood the nature of
text files, i was reading IBFT? i'm not sure
what it is about their 'hate-everything-especially-
you' attitude that makes us all love them, but we all
-do- love them.
o Long Dark Tunnel
http://web.textfiles.com/ezines/LDT
LDT just sort of fell off the face of the internet a
year or two ago, and a hole in my heart has remained
ever since. i actually started actively reading the
zine shortly before they disappeared, so it was a real
bummer when they suddenly up and left.
okay, i am at work, and this is all i got right now. these should keep you
busy. now go start your own fucking zine, and send all information to...
