Telegram. Issue #39.

Content notes: trauma, poverty, & very brief mentions of psychosis, violence, homelessness, rape, being arrested as a teen, detention centres, chronic suicidal ideation.

"Telegram #39 is about examining the ways poverty, trauma, and chronic pain shape & alter & distort my perceptions of myself, my body, and my imagination. It's about being okay with not-belonging; chronic instability of home and health and communication; coping, caring, dreaming. Making connections. This is a zine about sickness, pain, and isolation, the damage poverty does to one's psyche & body & soul, and surviving under capitalism. It's a zine about falling & praying & breathing. Cards & candles & the irrational. Affirmations for crazy & sick & disabled weirdos. Magic as coping skills. Story-telling, story-exploring, storying. Asking questions."--From author's website. https://marandaelizabeth.com/2018/09/03/telegram-and-see-the-cripple-dance-are-ending-stop/
