      <g:title>DEEZ NUTS sticker &amp; zine bundle</g:title>
      <g:description>the &lt;i&gt; Deez Nuts &lt;/i&gt;  Sticker &amp; Zine Bundle:
includes the mini zine + the 9x3" bumper sticker

For those who want the rant in their hands AND on their bumper!

This bundle pairs the original 8-page mini zine: LEDeez Nuts: How Your LED Headlights are Ruining Our Lives and Driving the Rise of Fascism, with the oversized 9” bumper sticker edition that takes the thesis public. Same rant, just two different ways to experience it.

It’s for anyone who’s ever been blinded at a stoplight and felt like it was deeper than just “bright lights.” Two formats with the resounding message...you can NOT own  the night.

One for your zine archive, and one for the streets.</g:description>

      <g:title>LEDEEZ NUTS: the reflective bumper sticker</g:title>
      <g:description>LEDeez Nuts .. the Reflective Bumper Sticker! 

Size: 9 inches x 3 inches
REFLECTIVE Vinyl, weatherproof 

Text reads:

YOUR LED HEADLIGHTS ARE RUINING LIVES.
*LEDeez nuts*
YOU CAN NOT OWN THE NIGHT.

-----
the bumper sticker version of our unhinged little bestseller about retina-searing LED headlights and the twisted cultural moment we’re living in.

same chaotic energy as the zine, just weatherproof AND reflective!! 

for anyone who’s been blinded at a stoplight and thought… this feels like it should be illegal.

stick it on your car. or your forehead if you're as fed up as we are. give it as a passive-aggressive gift to that car on your street. either way, just know you’re correct.</g:description>

      <g:title>The Big Picture Planner</g:title>
      <g:description>This is a planner for people who usually hate planners.

Designed by Julie aka Irie Ingénue, it was made to help with zooming out just enough to plan ahead, without spiraling or freezing. It’s meant to support with answering a few simple questions: what am I doing today, this week, and this month?

The planner is printed as an 11×17 poster, designed to live on your wall, desk, fridge, or wherever. You can write directly on it, or use sticky notes (Irie's preferred method) so things can shift without starting over.

It’s intentionally undated by the day and flexible by design which means you don't have to worry about falling behind or catching up. Treat it as a clear, flexible snapshot of what’s in front of you.

This version is laid out for January through June, but it isn’t precious about time. You can relabel months, skip sections, or treat it as a seasonal snapshot. There’s no wrong way to use it!!

Each order includes:
-One 11×17 Big Picture Planner (January–June layout)
-A short instruction sheet with ideas for how to use it
-Digital access to a filled-out example

This planner was originally created for and mailed exclusively to Good Mail Club members in January. A limited amount of extras are now available in the shop!

If most planners feel overwhelming or unrealistic, this one keeps things simple and gentle!</g:description>

      <g:title>The Rant Bundle</g:title>
      <g:description>Get the Rant Bundle from Z4Q!

The Rant Bundle is exactly what it sounds like: three zines that started as thoughts Julie aka Irie Ingénue couldn’t let go of. The kind that start as a side-eye, then into a full rant. Political, funny, personal, and very reddit thread coded.

What’s inside:

I Don’t Want a F*ckng Job
A quarter-page zine that unfolds into a poster. Its a rant, but really a loud questioning as to why survival has to be tied to productivity in the first place. Bold and unfiltered, it’s meant to live on your wall once you’re done reading.

LEDeez Nuts
An 8 pg satirical mini zine about modern car culture, blinding LED headlights, and the creeping feeling that none of this is accidental. Part personal rant, part political observation, with real traffic photos taken mid-squint. (do not try this at home lmao)

All the Best Rappers Are Women
A love letter to women in hip-hop and the complexity they bring to the genre. This mini zine sits in the gray area: celebrating power, contradiction, and authenticity - and includes a QR code linking to a playlist of the artists who prove the point!!

together, these three zines make a solid entry point if you’re into indie publishing, political zines, or just a real complainer at your core - with a bundled price that’s nothing to complain about (20% savings!!)</g:description>

      <g:title>LEDeez Nuts: How Your LED Headlights are Ruining our Lives and Driving The Rise of Fascism </g:title>
      <g:description>LEDeez Nuts: How Your LED Headlights are Ruining our Lives and Driving The Rise of Fascism ... a Mini Zine!

a funny, slightly unhinged zine about cars, fascism, and why your eyes hurt when driving at night nowadays.

If you’ve ever been blinded by a lifted truck with those souped-up LED headlights and thought, “this feels like a hate crime," ...this one’s for you.

LEDeez Nuts is a short, satirical zine about the rise of high-beam culture and what it says about the world we’re living in. Somewhere between a personal rant and a political essay, this zine connects the dots between aggressive car mods, late-stage capitalism, and the slow creep of fascist vibes in everyday life. It’s funny, it’s a little chaotic, and yes there are real headlight photos involved.

------
Mini zine, 8 pages made folded from a single sheet, printed with real traffic photos as the backdrop, taken while squinting through the chaos.

      <g:title>I Don’t Want a F*cking Job</g:title>
      <g:description>I Don’t Want a F*ckng Job - Quarter-Page Zine + Fold-Out Poster on Rest, Rage, and Capitalist Rejection

A fiery little zine for anyone who's ever side-eyed the phrase “dream job.” I Don’t Want a Fucking Job* is a 4-page, fold-out zine that opens into a bold poster. A loud, life-affirming refusal of capitalism’s grip on our time, energy, and imagination.

Inside, you’ll find a short lament (equal parts truth and rage) about the absurdity of having to sell your labor just to survive. It speaks to the burnout, the quiet rebellion, and the radical idea that maybe, just maybe, we are allowed to just be. No productivity required.

Printed on 8.5 x 11" paper, this zine folds out into a striking poster with a collage centerpiece, perfect for your wall, your altar, or anywhere you need a reminder that your worth isn’t tied to your output.

Whether you're a restless creative, a disillusioned worker, or simply tired of pretending that hustle culture makes sense, this one's for you. </g:description>

It’s a love letter to the women whose artistry lives in the in-between, embracing complexity and breaking barriers.

Bonus: Scan the code on the final page for a PLAYLIST featuring the incredible women rappers who inspired this zine!!!

      <g:title>Parable of the Slut</g:title>
      <g:description>Parable of the Slut is a 28-page kaleidoscope of poetry, essays, art, and games—all brought to life with bold, unique graphic design and illustrations by Irie Ingénue herself. Each page is crafted to amplify its content, making every turn of the page a visual and emotional experience.

In her second zine (after Livin La Vida Lesbo), Irie continues her odyssey with a fearless exploration of pleasure and self-discovery. PARABLE is a vibrant celebration of intimacy, creativity, and the unapologetic pursuit of joy.</g:description>
