For powerful, intuitive Bay Area women and the people who live in awe of them.
About
Content Queen came to be because Molly and Jane wished there were a magazine composed of nothing but their favorite parts of their favorite magazines. And so in 2018 they created their first zine, the eponymous Content Queen, by appropriating such formats as Seventeen’s quizzes, Vice’s Dos & Don’ts, New York’s Approval Matrix, and JANE’s Blind Date as vehicles for satirizing Bay Area “girlboss” culture. From there, inspiration knew no bounds, as the two scribes spun off additional titles—most recently as of 2025, Content Queen Issue 5 and The Wet Area—and moved from doing “just zines” to projects across media, including in-person salons and web experiences.
Content Queen’s work is purposefully evocative of another time, transporting you into the worlds like a late-1960s Whole Earth Catalog, a 1980s publishing house dinner gala, or a small-town tortue museum. torturor a lustful 2000s Cosmo. With every project, CQ aims to pay tribute to those way-better halcyon days of weirdo culture.
