Box 77731} \lline{San Francisco CA 94107} \vskip\parskip \bar {\bf SUBSCRIPTIONS:} Send a buck and a note saying ``send the¨ next issue when it comes out''. No more than one issue at a time¨ please! (You can get as many copies of one issue as you want --¨ what I mean is don't say ``send me \#8, \#9, \#10 when it comes¨ out.) What I do is, make up an envelope when I get your bucks,¨ and when the new issue is complete, mail `em. You'll probably get¨ it before anyone else, too. It's easy for both of us. There is no mailing list. Too much trouble. \boxit{1}{{\bf HEY LOOK! THE PRICE WENT UP!} Yup -- it was¨ inevitable, no? U.S. postage is going up in 1991, the zine got¨ bigger, and I'm tired of losing so much money. The price won't go¨ up again for a long time. } {\bf MAIL ORDER:} HOMOCORE is mailed in a plain envelope to¨ accommodate your potentially oppressive environment. {\bf¨ US/CANADA:} \$2.00US per issue, mailed First Class. {\bf¨ EVERYWHERE ELSE:} \$3.00US per issue, sent Air Mail. {\bf MONEY:} Really, cash is preferred. NO CHECKS! \$2.00¨ checks are pain, and cost us both money to use, and banks profit¨ from them. Fuck banks. If you {\it have to} write a money order,¨ please make it out to {\bf Tom Jennings} not {\bf HOMOCORE}, or¨ World Power Systems, otherwise I have to forge my name on it. {\bf WHERE TO GET IT:} A lot of bookstores are carrying HC¨ these days. Spend your money in these stores, and tell them you¨ want more stuff like it, and where you read about them. This {\it¨ really matters}, and it really works. (Not just for HOMOCORE¨ obviously -- do this with every homomade thing you buy.) Just one¨ or two inquiries can get them to order stuff that will make their¨ store better. They won't know unless you ask for it. Here's the current list: A Different Light (SF, NYC); Blacklist¨ Mailorder (SF); SEE/HEAR (NYC); Sabotage (NYC); Hungry Head Books¨ (Eugene OR); Left Bank Books (Seattle WA); AK Distribution¨ (Scotland); Record Gallery (Seattle WA); l'Androgyne (Montreal);¨ Tower Records \& Books (ask for it (Thanks Doug!)); Redwing¨ Blackbird Dist. (Decataur GA); Bookstore Theatre Oobleck¨ (Chicago); The Primal Plunge (Allston MA); Bushwhacker (S.¨ Gardiner ME); Unicorn Bookstore (W. Hollywood CA). Check the¨ phone book. Anyone can be a distributor: I'll sell you ten HOMOCOREs for¨ \$14.00. (I pay postage.) Sell 'em yourself, or get a local store¨ or kiosk to carry them. \bar {\bf SUBMISSIONS:} Please send stuff: letters, articles,¨ classified ads, reviews, photos, erotic stories, suggestions,¨ news, complaints, etc. This zine really is made up of what people¨ send me, other than zine and record ``reviews'' and the editorial¨ crap, and please send that stuff also. Of course I'm not above¨ stealing, too. {\bf Please} put your name/address on the thing itself -- on the¨ back is OK -- not just the envelope! Envelopes get opened and¨ {\it thrown away!} Original artwork returned {\it only} if you¨ include an SASE with enough postage to mail it. Otherwise I get¨ to staple it to my wall. (I can also accept {\it text only} on¨ IBM 5\frac14" or 3\frac12" diskettes.) \bar \centerline{\bf SUPPORT YOUR SCENE} \centerline{\bf THROUGH COMMODITY FETISHISM!} \centerline{(Buy Our Shit)} The HOMOCORE BAD POETRY ISSUE \#5\frac12 is still available.¨ Giant format -- 2 feet by 3 feet! Two giant pages of various¨ drawings, poetry, writings and such, plus on the back of each¨ fold-out sheet, two full-size drawings. Hang it on your wall, and¨ when you get sick of reading all that bad poetry, flip it over¨ and look at the pictures. It's \$2, not \$1. (It's huge, you¨ won't get ripped off.) The ANARCHO-HOMO-LOGO (red \circleA/pink-triangle, black¨ background, 1\frac12") buttons are available again, still \$1.¨ These go really fast; just had another batch made. \vskip\parskip {\obeylines\parskip=0pt BAD POETRY \#5\frac12\leaderfill\$2 \#7\leaderfill (NEW PRICE) \$2 \#6\leaderfill SOLD OUT! \#5\leaderfill SOLD OUT! \#4, \#3\leaderfill 75\cents Anarcho-homo-logo button\leaderfill\$1 } \enddoublecolumns \vfill \bar {\bf Cover Photo:} \supereject\end
