In this booklet, you will find:
- A discourse on love making a fuss.
- How to “make a fuss” in your own community.

Whose story deserves to be told, remembered, and empathized with? Who is silenced? And who gets to decide?
Daring To Archive encourages us to offer a counter-narrative to the dominant status quo regardless of how “small” our voices are (with examples and some resources).
Against popular notions of love, this booklet urges us to…
STOP
- blaming ourself for a moment
- forgiving the other person
- justifying for their misdeeds
- spiritual bypassing our pains
START
- admitting that we were hurt
- validating our own reality
- placing accountability where it’s due
- truth-speaking about our experiences
Learning about Narcissism and On a macro level, by questioning who benefits from how we currently understand "love", I hope "love" widens to include the marginalized.
What’s inside:
- A playbook on building immunity against abuse
- Understand gaslighting
- 10 survival tactics
- Questions to spot abuse
- Resources on narcissism
- The biggest point about surviving abuse
In every hug, there’s an opportunity for those involved to share a brief moment of resting, rejuvenation, feeling safe, and feeling seen. Yet, because this process is vulnerable, and thus requires courage, many of us have been viewing hugs as if it is medicine – one to get done with or run away from.
This zine offers a Từ Từ’s way of hugging. With a two-word mantra: ‘Just Stay’, we hope all of us can allow ourselves and others to sink into the embrace of each other to feel seen and special.
