Real Life
A Magical Guide to Getting Off the Internet
$3/32 pages/Quarter size
by Maranda (Telegram) & Dave
I was excited to read this zine because I have personally found myself stressed out over the internet. Maranda and Dave interview each other about their internet usage, breaking bad internet habits, and include good tips on setting healthy boundaries. Maranda writes a list of alternatives to being on the internet, questioning the internet and an internet love & hate list. Dave discusses the value of mindlessness and quitting Facebook.
The first thing Dave said that stuck with me was this: If something doesn't make you feel good, why are you doing it? And it's true; spending so much time on the internet was not making me feel good at all.

by Katie
Katie is an excellent writer so it was no surprise when I became completely engrossed in issue 4 of aubade. She writes, "this zine is about something way bigger than just this state i live in. it's about preserving the places we love--real and imagined. it's about struggling to carve out those places in spite of the enormous obstacles standing in our way." Katie writes about growing up in Virginia, childhood friendships & experiences, revisting her home and eyewitnessing the changes in the surroundings due to developements.
