We already have all files ready for printing (and have already ordered a test book!), so the actual production of Moments of Euphoria should happen quickly inshallah. We’ll be keeping all our backers updated via Kickstarter updates.

While we wait for Kickstarter to process the payout, we’ll be taking some much needed time off. Our shop will still be open for pre-orders of MoE and purchases of We’ve Always Been Here + merch, but they’ll ship out after Oct. 19th (or later for MoE pre-orders).

joy is resistance, and this artbook is irresistible 💖 (plus, you get to hold this tiny waist in your own hands 😳)
a cropped preview of the digital illustration i contributed for this project! the central character is looking at herself in the mirror with an awed expression, while her partner puts a pretty necklace around her neck. her figure is masculine and muscular, wrapped in a pretty corset with a bow and a sheer skirt, and long delicate gloves going up to her shoulder. the piece is implying a genderqueer identity with the presentation and colors (in this case, genderfluid, and presenting feminine for the first time!)

Transness can be a way to more deeply connect to culture, and many illustrations in our zine explore this! Traditional clothing, actions, and spiritual roles often hold gender significance, making it euphoric to participate in as we wish. 💞 5 days left to back: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tap...

We understand some intersex people feel inherently connected to the trans community, but others don't, so we're not sure on including this or not, to give a nod to all our trans-intersex siblings. We'd love to know your thoughts!

We have a quick question for intersex folks (both trans and cis-identifying)! We're including a collage of flags in the interior cover for our trans joy zine, and are wondering if the intersex flag should be included or not. (If you're not intersex, please share)

Tapling: Queer Zines 🏳️‍🌈 @taplingzines.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
Absolutely! We recommend asking about their entire supply chain if possible. And of course unethical places can always lie about working conditions, but those that take these ethics seriously will usually be able to support their claims somehow too, so look out for that.

Since today is an International Day Against Trafficking, we wanted to talk about ethical production of art & merch. All our projects are co-led by a trafficking survivor, so this is really important to us! We also hope this inspires you to follow these guidelines in your own art too. 🧵
A graphic showing digital mockups of the merch from the Moments of Euphoria project. Text reads, "Ethical merch production: tips for creating merch without forced labor and negative environmental impact. Tip 1: Search printing companies for 'forced labor' and 'modern slavery' policies. Tip 2: Ask companies directly if they avoid forced labor. Tip 3: Consider environment-friendly alternatives (paper merch, paper sleeves, wooden pins). Tip 4: Buy local whenever possible! Share to help other artists create more ethical merch!"
