What do we mean when we say “profit” (in the not-for-profit to for-profit spectrum)? As a person trying to live off the “profit” they generate from their work, profit is essential to my livelihood and my ability to continue producing work I am passionate about. So, to say that I am a for-profit does not yet speak to the complexities of a minor, non-capitalist publishing project. The word “profit” without any other context is a simplification; it can’t speak to the complexities of what making a profit means for my life, work, and future. GenderFail is not not-for-profit but profit-for-survival, or profit-to-continue-our-work-without-other-means-of-capital -- and most importantly, to make money for the people I publish, to create profit-for-labor. Defining the means of non-exploitative-profit by describing how our work is created, who is being paid, and the ethics behind its creation is essential when determining the terms of any engagement with “profit.”
