Randall enough people in the US want

I'd nab a subscription for zines and tapes. Thumbed through the book a bit so far. Good stuff! A salve on my soul in this diarrhea world.

Randall Would, zine + tape.

Anybody got a line on the book in the states? And if not here, anywhere?

Nathan Loud

Mark Smith

Looks like yes.

Randall Would definitely grab these, can send an email along today as well.

Mark Smith

Ugh. Turns out Spacecase was out of the book after all so I’m still on the hunt for one in the states.

Hey all! Sorry for slow movement through here, been havin a crazy couple weeks with a book deadline that's kept me off track (still haven't emailed Randall or Lammie to figure out how best to make this work but will soon sorry!)

In the meantime, wondering how best to do this logistically if you had any thoughts? I suppose there's two main ways to do it... not sure what would work out easiest for all involved though..

You could buy a subscription upfront direct from me ($30AUD for zines, $60AUD for zines+mixtapes, maybe slightly extra to help cover international postage), then I can ship a batch to Total Punk / Don't Buy Records and you can pay for postage within North America / Europe from them? (Maybe a record or two from 'em while you're at it..)
I could just make some arbitrary number of copies (like 15 per territory per issue) and we can figure out a retail amount that you could just purchase issue-by-issue from the TP/DBR distro. Which is probably easier but not personalised as I'd hoped for this scheme...

Any preferences there??

And re: getting copies of the book overseas, I'll see if I can ship some more over to either Spacecase or Total Punk with these new issues!

Thanks heaps for bearing with me.. I am really bad at logistics and marketing haha

Please stay that way...

BARELY HUMAN

Ahhright! With massive thanks to Total Punk Randall and Doný Buy Records Lammie, we're gonna do just yr basic non-subscription distro for a handful of copies of these zines as they come for anyone who's interested!

Send me an email if you wanna be on an email list and reserve a copy.. I make everything by hand so won't be making huge amounts of these, but will probably send 10 or so each to TP (North America) and DBR (EU/UK).. If you wanna keep up to date on when I'm sendin them over for distro, email max@barelyhuman.info and I'll put you on an email list to make sure to make one for ya!

Thanks for bein down to clown for this stuff. I know for most of us this is all old hat stuff that's been done before, but it's pretty wild how it feels like reinventing the wheel a bit trying to make it work in the 2026 paradigm. Really appreciate everyone's help and support in a world of thinly veiled addiction-induced subtweets that suggest that deleting a social media account is akin to backing up the war machine!
