Gendercide #3: It's The Chemical Warfare Issue, Part 1
From the zine:
Welcome to first of two very special issues of Gendercide In issues #3 and #4 I've asked a couple of friends to write about 'chemical warfare' as it relates to their transitions. In this issue Ashley Altadonna talks about her experiences with HRT, the chemicals she takes and the effects it has on her to make her the woman she is.
Stay tuned for Gendercide #4 when we get a glimpse at chemical warfare from an FTM perspective.

the verge of collapse
From the author, Taya Poworoznyk:
"There was a time in the spring of 2024 when I noticed that Halifax—a city I had lived in and loved my whole life—was living and breathing all on its own. I don’t know when it started. I was walking in the streets and suddenly I heard it: everywhere, the clang of machinery, the inhale of an excavator picking up dirt, the chatter of hammers and nails. I became obsessed with these sights and sounds, and with them, the idea that our city was constantly killing and rebirthing itself. This was when I wrote The Verge of Collapse. I fixated on the mechanical image: these tall structures looming over us, whose thoughts we cannot discern, indifferent to our confusion, frustration, or awe. Each one a monolith amongst the downtown sky. Nova Scotia is #2 in cranes per capita across the entirety of North America. What are we building? And what does it mean to live in this perpetual state of flux? "
