Are you an introvert but still want to make a difference?

Do you like talking to persons but hate talking to people?

Do you want to join community but hate the idea of meeting with community?

Here's a fun thing to do:

  • Print zines (little how-to and educational pamphlets).
  • Put zines in little free libraries!

Here's a place to download zines for free: https://www.sproutdistro.com/

Edit: Adding @CrimethInc as well: https://crimethinc.com/library

Here's a how-to on how to make and put together zines (cheers @susankayequinn )

Here's a place to find all the little free libraries in your neighborhood: https://littlefreelibrary.org/map/

Here's the FAQ from Little Free Libraries regarding donating any books or material that may be considered controversial (dive in and read their take on Banned Books! Oooooh!): https://littlefreelibrary.org/faqs/#45820

Do you have any other sources for zines that you like? Post them below.

Something to keep in mind for anybody looking to print the really fun stuff. Just beware you take steps to deal with this.

Any normie-compatible recommendations? Preferably available in multiple languages.

probably it's better to make your own; i don't like the approach of the source because it's just spamming stuff and thinking it's fine

but you know your place better than people on the internet, you can blend in better than them :)

i like the idea so i will keep it in my tools for local change, surely good to test it
