I'd also like to remind you of the recently enhanced! 💖🔮Mystery Zine Bundle🔮💖, half of the proceeds from which will be donated to Open Privacy and Mother Trust Org. So far I've raised $150 for the two charities (from selling copies of Clandestine Motives as well). I'll let you know once I pass along the funds.
