gravity powered pockets


This is a charming half-size zine photocopied in black & white with charming drawings.  I like all the autobiographical material.  It was fun to read that.  I like the lightness and personality and the honest way that being a kid is portrayed.  I like the list of places Robert rode horses and rode bikes.  I like what he said about a friend who died.

There's something deeply attractive about this zine, and I read it immediately upon receiving today's mail, skipping only a few paragraphs about climate change.  My only suggestion would be to talk about climate change in a way that's as vivid and engaging as the autobiographical material.  I don't know how to do that, but maybe Robert can figure it out--he's figured out so many other things.
