It has been quite a while but welcome back to Negative Capability, a paper zine for people who hate people. You can’t kill it, I will go out on my own terms. A new issue is coming eventually but in the meantime, I have brought my web site into the modern age, finally. If this is your first visit, you may want to start with the original Manifesto. If you are a longtime fan, check out something new, like “Hate It or Love It," which is coming in NegCap #6. A lot of stories will link to other stories but I like to think this site is a sort of "choose your own adventure" kind of thing. As a general warning, this site does contain a bit of nudity, some foul language, drug use and some other things that may trigger you so if you are a Karen, just fuck off and save us both the hassle. If you are like me then you should know that there is a lot of content on this site that is not on site maps and can't be searched. You have to read the story and click the mystery link to find it. I always like finding stuff like that and my zine has always been my attempt to make something that I would like.
It would easy to outsource some of the heavy lifting to AI but that's not what I am about. Using it to bounce ideas around is one thing, using it to generate content that I'll put my name is something else entirely. Every single image in the zine has always been enhanced slightly all the way up to what I would call collages of multiple pictures. No one asked for it but I am bringing back the idea of using art as content.
I am working very hard to make the new issue and as of March 2026, I have laid out all sixty-four pages of the interior and I am working with my friend Garett on the cover. I would say 70% is in its final form while I am now working to come up with layouts I like better than the placeholders I used. I am not as proficient with InDesign as I would like though I do enjoy learning new skills that will die with me. For a lot of reasons, I am off Facebook and Twitter and my Instagram scrolling is limited to fifteen minutes a day. I am on Reddit all the time because I still need some social media, I just don't want to be a part of the problem. I have always hated Twitter and FB has just gotten sickening with the ads, promoted shit, lack of accountability and when they forced me to follow the White House account, that was the last straw. I am not going to delete my account because I have a few groups I manage but for now, the only way to reach me is e-mail. If you are reading this message, you should say hello.
