OTHER SITES
MEDIA
- kanopy - link up your library card for free movies
- vimm's lair - retro game archive (note: sega and nintendo are really cracking down on this :[ i also recommend checking out archive.org)
- project gutenberg - free ebooks! usually older works or stuff in the public domain.
- libby - an app that links up to your library card so you can get free ebooks and audiobooks from your library. if you have a kobo e-reader, it also hooks up to overdrive so you can read on your kobo! a really nice alternative to the kindle storefront.
- calibre - free ebook library management software. i use this to manage the epubs i put on my kobo!
- itch.io - small storefront for games, really nice if you like small VNs and rpgmaker titles
- jackrabbitcherrybomb - (18+) a comic by my friend about two jewel thieves with options to read digitally or buy physical copies!
- the dogs - a short creative nonfiction story by my friend about dogs, two-headed selves, being kicked out by your family, science, morals, etc.. published to revolute lit!
- swan archives - a fansite all about brian de palma's phantom of the paradise. ran primarily by one guy who made a specific showing of phantom i went to with some friends incredibly special. check out the scene by scene page for an extremely extensive break down of the movie!
- the neitherland - this link specifically goes to her "bands/artists" page with lots of links to bands and artists she likes to listen to but you can still find a lot of them elsewhere anyway. goth/industrial/80s centric!
- allyratworld's new zealand EGL community zines - allyratworld has made some zines documenting the new zealand lolita fashion community's exploits over the past few years (2022-2024) and they are all available for free download via pdf (or you can buy physical copies). they are super fun to look at, have some lovely coords, and as us j-fashion fans know it's nice to have a physical documentation of the fashion somewhere, almost like a continuation of FRUiTS and GLBs with that modern new zealand flair!
- waste.org/chemlab - an early web site dedicated to one of the earliest and coolest industrial acts, chemlab. lots of cool little chemlab resources here, interviews, links, lyrics, etc.! looks like this was last maintained in 2008.
