Paperboy #6
Paperboy delivers only good news, twice a year. It's fun, light-hearted and, most of all, useful.
In this issue:
"Have you noticed the recent trend for using the word “human” – as in, “He’s a beautiful human” or, “She’s a spectacular human” – instead of the prosaic “person”, or gendered descriptors of the more and less formal variety: “man”, “woman”, “dude”, “babe”, etc.
Here at Paperboy, we think of this development in the language as an inevitable reaction to the dehumanising, impersonal effects of technology. And we welcome it! We are humans, you’re a human – and we don’t doubt that you’re beautiful, not to mention spectacular. Your intelligence is not artificial, and neither is ours. It’s 100 per cent human.
This issue, our esteemed team of writers, photographers and artists – all living, breathing humans – brings you 146 pages of only Good News, celebrating the wonders of humanity: theirs, yours, ours.
All of it made in the real world, as they say, with our own imperfect, human hands.
Now you can hold it in yours."
