The LGBTQ+ Pride merch has been updated in my online store. I missed some of the Pride celebrations, but Pride is really all year long, so I don’t feel like I’m too late to release the products. Since the Supreme Court handed down its ruling against trans people in Tennessee, it’s more important than ever to stand up for trans people.

I’ve pared back on how many things I sell

As I was updating the store with new designs, I realized I had way too many different items to choose from. Some designs had 70 different items, but now there are under 30 items for each design. I’ve added cuddle animals to most designs, although the teddy bears are out of stock at the moment.

I’ve also created bumper stickers for some of my designs, and those particular versions of the designs are only available as stickers and bumper stickers.

New Legislate merch

I updated the Legislate design for this year’s Pride Month. This is a design that can be worn year-round in the wake of the Supreme Court decision. I’ve also added a second version that has the Transgender Pride flag.

Updated Viva La Queer and Black Trans Lives Matter designs

I’ve come to realize that the text on my Viva La Queer and Black Trans Lives Matter designs may be hard to read on the Pride flags. I’ve changed the designs to have white text, and you can get them on a wide variety of products. As always, all proceeds from the Black Trans Lives Matter products will go to the Marsha P. Johnson Institute.

There’s also a brand new design in the shop

Back during the COVID lockdown, I saw a picture of a woman wearing a shirt that questioned their choice to not protect themselves (and others) by wearing a mask versus owning a gun. I’ve been wanting to make a T-shirt with that on it, and I’ve finally made the Mask Gun design. I know there are several versions you can buy online, but mine stays close to the original design I saw. I also have it on some non-apparel items.

Is there a different product you’d like me to sell

Spreadshirt, my merchandise partner, has beaucoup products available. It was hard to pick just what items my designs go on, but I don’t want to overwhelm you with choices. If there’s something you want to buy something on, drop me a note and I’ll see what I can do. I can’t sell something they don’t offer, but if something is available, I’ll add it to my product selection.

Can you catch the sales?

Spreadshirt has sales going on all the time. As I write this, you can get 10% off on 3 or more products through the end of the month. The best way to is there’s this sale on is to check the banner at the top of every page of the store.

4th of July merch is coming

I don’t usually do patriotic merch because American Pride has been taken over by the political right. I hate what they’ve done to patriotism, so I tend to stay away from those themes. I’m about to change that for the 4th of July.

In the coming days, you can find some of my designs on star-spangled products. Those products will only be available through 6 July, so watch for the announcement that they’re available. You won’t be able to get them again until next year, and I’m not going to promise they’ll be back then.

More designs are in the works

I’ve taken down the Be Honest Everywhere designs for the time being, and I have some more designs in development. I’ll also be changing my product lineup as the seasons change.

I’ll announce the changes here, so you may want to watch the site. I’ll be adding a way to subscribe to get updates about the site, and when I get it set up, I’ll be announcing it here and on Bluesky.

Stay cool out there

We keep having new hottest summers on record, and it wouldn’t surprise me to see this summer break records. Stay as cool as you can, and make sure you stay hydrated. And with all the diseases going around, please consider making up. It will not only protect you, but it can also protect your loved ones.

And when you can, stand up for those who can’t stand up for themselves. Make sure they know that they’re not alone out there, whether they have the wrong skin color, the wrong sexual preferences, are in the wrong body, or have the wrong faith. As we say back in the South, y’all means ALL.
