Weird Tales vol. 21, no. 3 (March 1933)
No subtlety here, just plain nudity, though the angle/posture is very careful I guess. She has amazing hair. Society was obsessed with red hair back then, right? Nowadays it's scorned. Who are our red-haired role models? Julianne Moore? Ellie Kemper?

just under TWO WEEKS until the submission deadline for Good Internet magazine: march 15, 2025!
Good Internet launches in May 2025. it's a volunteer-run, not-for-profit print and digital quarterly magazine for personal website owners and those interested in using the internet as a means of self-expression, art, and recreation.
we're looking for 1,500 to 4,000 word articles about anything for that audience!
this means #webdev hobbyists, digital (and traditional) #artists, #internet culture enthusiasts, #technology nerds, #socialmedia expatriates, & anyone who wants to unplug from the corporate-owned #web.
topics could be:
* internet history
* personal websites & blogs
* #accessibility on the #indieweb
* finding inspiration for a #blog
* #webdesign trends (current or old)
* running from the #enshittification of the web
* lessons or post-mortems from web projects
* news or overviews of #opensource projects
* #privacy on the indieweb
also looking for any #art submissions centered around the web, coding, internet culture, and digital art!
if it relates to hobbies on "this side of the web," we probably want to run it!
you can have your article submitted as text and images only OR you can code a whole webpage that helps tell your story!
if you're interested in learning more, sign up for our email list or check out the submission guidelines @ https://goodinternetmagazine.com!
(please boost if you can! <3 getting the word out helps so much!)
This move has been really painful. I'm so glad to be in a permanent home now, but the amount of stuff we have is so overwhelming. I need to do some serious culling for my own sanity.
I have a big stack of early #Dragon #Magazine from my late dad. It's sentimental, but they all seem to be on archive.org. They should go to a good home. I can send more details if interested.
#Boost for all the nerds in the fedi
1 February 1928 | A Czech Jewish boy Petr Ginz was born in Prague. In #Theresienstadt Ghetto he was an editor-in-chief of a #magazine "Vedem" (In the lead): http://vedem-terezin.cz/en/home_en.html | Ginz was deported to #Auschwitz on 28 September 1944 and murdered in a gas chamber after arrival.
this will likely be a recurring reminder as the weeks go by, but i'm so excited about this project. i have to share! (this is the first time i've been nervous to announce something on this side of the web!)
i'm combining my 10 years of journalism experience with my love for the #indieweb by launching GOOD INTERNET, a regular periodical magazine in both print and digital formats. and this is a non-profit, completely independent endeavor!
https://goodinternetmagazine.com/
ultimately, Good Internet will cover a lot of different aspects of the small web: unplugging from the corporate web, fighting #enshittification, migrating from data-harvesting corpo social media, creating your own personal website, using code and website-building as an art form, federation, and creating websites for fun. it will be approachable for beginners and enjoyable for seasoned indie web travelers!
the #smallweb can be hard to keep up with if you aren't "plugged in," especially if you want to find other hobby website owners, folks coding for fun, weird web projects, or artists taking back their digital ownership. it's overdue that this side of the web has an analog publication!
having a central publication about the decentralized parts of the personal web makes me even more excited to share this hobby with those who might not even know about it--all within beautiful, high-res, high-quality pages.
the idea here is to have a physical celebration of this hobby in addition to being informative, helpful, and accessible.

Astounding vol. 45, no. 3 (May 1950)
Be honest, the only thing we care about on this cover is “Dianetics”, a new science of the mind. This must have been one of its first appearances? And it's in a fiction magazine?

Weird Tales vol. 27, no. 4 (April 1936)
Wow, lots of fetishy stuff going on here, but I'm distracted by his attacking him with a … jar of honey? Maybe it's an urn with some dead person's ashes in it.

Worlds of IF (September 1967)
Wild stuff, except that it isn't, it's just a cowboy scene that Will James would have been comfortable with … plus a couple of SF touches.
It could even be a western magazine cover hastily repainted to meet the demands of a sci-fi magazine.
