h( )le: a zine by e v @girl_extension_ Published by LOOSE ASSOCIATIONS + riso-printed by @burleyfishercommunitypress h( )le is a sick, sensual, only semi-fictional, exchange on hole ontologies between an infected welt and its conceptually ill-informed host. What’s in a hole? Are they really great, gaping repositories of nothing? And, if so: what IS that curdled stuff rising up to meet us? Each page turned is another finger dipped in the rancid erotics of h( )le. Pressure mounts; the hot flows of hidden narrative(s) swill against bare skin. Unstop that quivering geyser, that pucker of riven flesh! Call forth the thick stew of the fundament! Show us, once and for all, what a hole is REALLY full of! Based on actual events. AVAILABLE TO BUY ON LOOSEASSOCIATIONS.CO.UK COMING SOON TO A BOOKSHOP NEAR YOU

MENS MENTAL HEALTH Men are mental I told my mother that I’d never be a man and that I’ll always be a boy. She laughed and said I need to grow up. I still stand by it tho. Like yeah I’m a man innit but I’m a boy really. This t-shirt’s been on my hard drive for a while now but I couldn’t face making it for some reason. This last winter has been shit out its head. First time I’ve had a ‘proper job’ where I have a schedule and sit down at a computer all day. Tbf it’s actually pretty depressing. Yeah I got more cash to waste on bike parts and stuff but I stopped making things, stopped thinking about making things and rebuilt my bike like 10 times. I like processes and I like to finish something and see the difference. I get that through chopping wood and fixing bikes and scootering but also printing and making. I made these t-shirts because for one they’re dope. Also because I needed to make something and finish it. Not gonna lie I thought that people might think I’m taking the piss. Which I guess I am but I’m allowed to I got mens mental health innit and if this t-shirt can start a conversation or even just gasses someone up that’s enough for me. All proceeds of the stuff we make literally goes back into screens, ink and materials for the next thing we make. I hope this rambling makes sense and adds a bit of context to what could seem a surface level joke about a serious topic. This is a joke and it’s allowed. You best believe it mens mental health is real and so is monster energy. I bet a tenner on the fact that not drinking monster would be beneficial for your mens mental health. Think about that next time you decide to buy an energy drink. Instead you could buy this t-shirt. It’s like 15 monsters. Would you rather buy this t shirt or 15 monsters? Lol monsters innit. 3 COLOUR SCREEN PRINT / TEES FIT QUITE BIG INNIT SO IF UR SMALL GET A SMALL / AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON LOOSEASSOCIATIONS.CO.UK

FULLINGLISH: A RADIO MIX BY LOOSE ASSOCIATIONS will be broadcast on No Bounds Radio TODAY (Sunday 15th December) 21:00-21:30 A radio mix is kind of like a zine but instead of holding it in your hands you put it in your ears. It all ends up the same way anyway, sitting at the bottom of your brain. Here are some sounds made by friends, acquaintances and strangers put together into a sequence. It doesn't tell a story but says something about how conversations can turn to poetry. Listen live: @noboundsradio Music by: John Cooper Clarke, Caution Horses, YSING, Direct Sports, D Roy Asscot, Renoir Salter, Jack Pedder, Michael J Hanley, Follicle Skin Words by: Kemi Badenoch, LBC caller, Echo Charlie Monkey, Jonathan Richman, Jamal, Enya Artwork by @plastickfruits
