Are Your Humors Out Of Alignment Because You Are Most Vexed By What The Future Portends, But You Have Lost Faith In Standard Astrologies & Other Augurical Arts In These Ominously Fluxual Times?

Well, Fuckin-A: Us Too! But don’t worry, friends, Koda and the rest of the GenPox Pack got us all hooked up, they “Aim To Please And Claim To See What Fate Decrees“. (These are Koda’s exact words btw. I was gonna post a video of it but he told me that no one ever believes a talking dog and he doesn’t wanna risk losing his credibility, so you’re just gonna have to take my word on it for now.)

Anyway, find What Sign You were Born Under and discover what fate hath decreed for thee with your genuine genPox pack horoscope:

Tropical beach at sunset. There is a silhouette of a youth pointing toward the sky. The Words The Beautiful & The Doomed" are in large blue letters. "by Nathaniel Murphy" is in black script above the youth

The Beautiful & The Doomed is a column by Nathaniel Murphy full of laments and exaltations as he tries to make some sense of a world that is rapidly changing. This is a column for people who still think that the world is worth it – that the planet matters and the people on it do, too, dammit. In A Doomer’s Guide To Getting Right With The Apocalypse, Nathaniel talks about his struggle with trying to be “okay” in a world that is very much not going to be “okay” any time soon (decades anyone?).

So you made it to the apocalypse. Excuse me, The Apocalypse. The Big One – the End Of The World As We Know It. Are we feelin fine about it though, kids? idk I’m not so sure we are. But there is one pretty sweet consolation:

We all know that Apocalypse aesthetics has always been any collapse’s biggest sell, and if history has shown us anything it’s that societal collapses are rains that water the gardens of human creativity – and the big one means there are a lot of gardens to water.

Our Arts & Entertainments page is the Farmer’s Market of Generation Apocalypse Webzine – where you will find various stalls and booths and street performers – a lot of the stuff there you will have no idea what it is or what people could possibly do with it, but hopefully there will be some good finds that you’ll wanna keep coming back for – and rando dogs doing rando dog stuff because dogs.

Koda is excited to see what’s in store for Generation Apocalypse Webzine! He plans to check back often to see what’s new.

So my strategy here is to Field of Dreams the website (Zine of Dreams, if you will) – by that I mean “Build It And They Will Come” if you aren’t very far into your Kevin Costner filmography watchlist – and by that I mean I’m making some sections of the site that have nothing in them yet with the idea that building spaces for various projects is a better way to attract those projects than not having those spaces. simple as.

Anyway, here is what I’ve been working on so far – I hope to need to add more soon, but in the meantime take a look around, and if you get inspired to share something at Generation Apocalypse Webzine, then hit up the Submissions & Collaborations page for the general guidelines as well as the links for submissions.

Fiction & Storytelling

Generation Apocalypse Webzine’s Stories From The End Of The World & The Start Of A New Tomorrow will house all of the various storytelling projects we hope to get going.

From the Epic of Gilgamesh all the way up to the reasons you tell your boss you can’t come in today – I love me a good story, so I hope to add a lot of Storytelling Projects like our first project “Lit Bits” over the next few weeks slash months (little by little, of course) – like Lit Bits in the sense of having a simple prompt with a poop-ton of room for riffing within the structure provided by the prompt.

rose background with GENPOX.com at the top in big block letters. in the foreground is a dog laying down with its head up and wearing reading glasses. across it are the words: Stories From The End Of The World & The Start Of A New Tomorrow

So, if you love stories like we do (honestly, who doesn’t love stories? Duds, that’s who.), then check back often to see what’s new, and if there are any Projects that speak to Storyteller in you and then create and submit your own! (Read Submission Guidelines Here)

If you have an idea for a story you’d like to share right now, email us at: [email protected].

If you have a Lit Bit story ready to share then email it to: [email protected].

Light blue background with GENPOX.com at the top in big block letters. in the foreground is a dog laying down with its head up and wearing reading glasses. across it are the words: CULTURE & SOCIETY

At Generation Apocalypse Webzine we are collecting voices of people who care about the world and the people in it and giving them a place to share their thoughts about all of it.

Check back frequently to hear some new voices. If you’d like to submit an idea for a column, please check the submission guidelines here, then if you think we’d make a good fit email us at: columns.submissions.genpox.com.

GenPox’s Culture & Society page is where we house all of our ongoing featured columns. We figure that “Culture and Society” together encompass pretty much everything that people talk about – Life as  a Human (AI Punks Fuck Off!), in other words.

Life as a Human during what is shaping up to be a rather stressful and traumatic era of both human and geologic history – there’s gonna be a lot to talk about.

Pictures From The End Of The World

We live in such a rich and amazing world. Despite the fact that them bastards have been trying to pave it all to put up their parking lots, this is still a Paradise Planet. Sure, it can be brutal at times – but still there is a lot worth sharing and here you will find links to the various photo projects shared by our contributors.

The World is big and each of us are pretty small – sometimes that’s a bummer, but here is where it is the biggest asset we could be possibly have: the ridiculously disproportionate ratio between the bigness of the world compared to each of us as an individual means that all of our perspectives are going to be unique (some closer to others, a lot of overlap, but nonetheless distinct in the details, which is what matters here).

rose background with GENPOX.com at the top in big block letters. in the foreground is a dog laying down with its head up and wearing reading glasses. across it are the words: The World Through Our Lenses: Photography

One of the cool things about the World today is that most of us have the tools to share glimpses of those perspectives – and sometimes those glimpses really capture something that is worth sharing.

Such Beautiful Disasters, Us will house the Photo Projects that center Humans as their subject matter – not only portrait photography but Projects based on Hair-Styling, Make-Up, & Fashion.

If you have an idea for a Photo Project, please email us at: [email protected]

We Got The Music In Us

Here at Generation Apocalypse Webzine We Got The Music In Us – or at least we hope to soon lol. Anyway, this is where we will put all of the Music Projects that people end up sharing on here.

If you have any ideas for a project that you would like to share, please email us at: [email protected].

We Hope That’s Love In Our Tummies

Here at GenPox, you know We Got Love In Our Tummies – just look at our pal, Shilo, enjoying a taste. Food is such a universal art-form, we all love it and we all like to talk about it. Except for the people who don’t, who probably shouldn’t bother going to Food pages of websites, so it’s ok if we ignore them in this case lol.

If you have any Food Projects you would like to share, please email us at: [email protected].

This kid gets it.
