*In other news: 2018 calendars + planners are all in, a steady stream of restocks keep showing up, we put out another newsletter from the tape label side of things (which includes a Bandcamp sale through the end of the year), and we even have some holiday cards if that's your thing.
*For those curious about holiday shipping: We'll be shipping most days until the morning of December 22nd. Anything shipped by the 19th is guaranteed to arrive (within the U.S.) before Xmas. USPS doesn't guarantee international orders, so we can't make any promises, but we'll keep shipping them.
*In this gift-giving season, remember to support small businesses! A lot of independent businesses are able to stay in business throughout the year because of the income the holidays bring. We wholesale our zines, books, paper goods, and tapes to a lot of really lovely bookstores and variety shops that are super supportive of what we do and very deserving of your support.
*For those of you in Portland, this coming Wednesday, December 13th, we'll be tabling all day at the Publication Fair alongside some of Portland's best small presses and literary organizations. Come say hi!
*For those in the U.S., it seems as if we all need to get used to calling our representatives on a regular basis. So here's a list of senators' phone numbers and a straightforward guide on how best to do it. And keep in mind that there are always plenty of ACLU petitions and White House petitions to sign.
*Here in Portland, local journalist Emilly Prado does a great weekly calendar called From Slacktivism to Activism, which lists all sorts of benefits and political & social justice gatherings.
And remember to take care of yourself during the holidays. Until the new year,
Antiquated Future
