SUMMARY:🖇️ Volunteer Zine Folding Session
DESCRIPTION:We print a *lot* of zines at Iffy Books\, which we distribute for free or by donation. That means we’re constantly folding and stapling\, which takes patience. And we’re currently having a hard time keeping all 150+ titles in stock.\n\nSo we’re running a volunteer zine folding session every other Wednesday afternoon! If you’ve been looking for a way to get involved at the shop\, here’s your chance. (We’re limiting the number of sign-ups because we only have three booklet staplers.)\nRegister for Jan 15:\nRegistration is now closed. We'll offer this event again soon! \n   \nIf you register and you can’t make it\, let us know at iffybooks@iffybooks.net. Thanks!

SUMMARY:🪐 Speculative Futures Reading Group: 'The Birds of Maine' by Michael DeForge
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, February 26th at 7 p.m. we’ll discuss the graphic novel The Birds of Maine by Michael DeForge. Hope to see you there! \n> Long after the demise of humankind\, birds roam freely around the Moon complete with fruitful trees\, sophisticated fungal networks\, and an enviable socialist order. The universal worm feeds all\, there are no weekends\, and economics is as fantastical a study as unicorn psychology. No concept of money or wealth plagues the thoughts of these free-minded birds. Instead\, there are angsty teens who form bands to show off their best bird song and other youngsters who yearn to become clothing designers even though clothes are only necessary during war. (The truly honorable professions for most birds are historian or librarian.) These birds are free to crush on hot pelicans and live their best lives until a crash-landed human from Earth threatens to change everything. \n> Michael DeForge’s post-apocalyptic reality brings together the author’s quintessential deadpan humor\, surrealist imagination\, and undeniable sociopolitical insight. Appearing originally as a webcomic\, Birds of Maine follows DeForge’s prolific trajectory of astounding graphic novels that reimagine and question the world as we know it. His latest comic captures the optimistic glow of utopian imagination with a late-capitalism sting of irony.
