LainZine - very similar to PagedOut: https://lainzine.org/archive

Unredacted - Privacy/OSINT related. Only past issues are free. https://inteltechniques.com/magazine.html

N-O-D-E - Hardware/DIY https://n-o-d-e.net/zine/

These books are what i would consider the best books for self-study. (I have gone through many textbooks after i went back to school to study statistics.)

• Real Analysis: A Long-Form Mathematics Textbook

• Proofs: A Long-Form Mathematics Textbook

• Mathematical Logic Through Python

• A Course in Calculus and Real Analysis

• A Course in Multivariable Calculus and Analysis

• Differential Equations With Applications and Historical Notes

• Probability and Random Processes (Grimmet)

• Probability Through Problems

• Fifty Challenging Problems in Probability with Solutions

• The Simple and Infinite Joy of Mathematical Statistics

• An Introduction to Error Analysis

Not really gatekeeping, but as someone who likes to self-study, not having solutions is very annoying.

The first paper in the literature review and its citations argue how popular tv shows like "The Twilight Diaries" and "Riverdale" normalize rape and violence against women, I can't take it seriously.
There is no evidence that fetishes could be "induced".
