We don't talk about it on the store site, but a portion of each sale is set aside to help purchase feminine hygiene products for the local (Corpus Christi, TX) homeless and women's shelters.
Tampons and sanitary pads are pretty expensive, and people don't normally think of them when they're donating items to shelters. Not thinking about them doesn't stop the need of course. I'm a guy, so I have never experienced menstruation firsthand. However; I still have an imagination. Just the thought of being out on the street, desperate about so many other things and then having to deal with your period, has to be very stressful.
Of course, being a small company with just a small number sales per month, we can't do a lot - but every little bit helps.

New: When Gamers Were Made of Iron, and Consoles Were Made Of Wood - Atari VCS tee
This shirt is 20% off for a limited time. |
The design; however, is apparently made of stone and wood. |
A little bit about the shirts
All shirts are hand screened and are printed on demand. This shirt will generally be screened, heat set, and shipped within one to three business days of your order.At the moment, the shirts are sourced locally; and we attempt to use Gildans or Jerzees for the heavyweight 100% cotton ones; however, we will also use heavy weight 100% cotton Hanes or Fruit of the Loom tees if that is all that is available in a particular size. You can also request Hanes Comfortsoft cotton/poly blend tees (the hues will sometimes be slightly different on these).
We can accept special requests; if you want a different color or type of shirt or ink, if you'd like the graphic (when applicable) to be a different color than the text, we'll be happy to work with you, just send us a note and let us know.
For special orders, please understand that since we currently source our tees locally, we can't guarantee the availability of a particular color in all sizes. This is normally only a problem in sizes larger than XL. In addition, for the women's fitted shirts, we currently have no control over whether the shirt will be scoop neck or v-neck. Contact us and we'll do everything we can to get you the shirt you actually desire.

I'm maneuvering a 2-ton potential weapon, why are you deliberately antagonizing me?
I don't understand why people seem to love annoying me when I am behind the wheel of a two ton weapon.
- If I am driving the speed limit in the travel lane, why do you feel that it is necessary to pass me on the right?
- Learn how to merge. Yes, the signs might say "Yield," but that does not mean you come to a dead stop for vehicles that are 300 yards up the exit ramp. For those of you that don't screech to a complete stop, quit pacing people on the exit ramp. If you're ahead of them, don't slow down, if you're slightly behind them, don't speed up.
- Conversely, don't honk at me when I am in the middle lane and you come off of the exit ramp going 35MPH over the posted exit ramp speed limit and try to dart across three lanes of traffic in under 100 yards. Learn to get off one exit early if you know that you're not going to have enough room.
- Learn to use your directional signals. It is not physically strenuous, nor does it require extreme mental effort. If you are not going to learn how to use your turn signals, at least remove your bumper stickers telling me about your honor student; or telling me (a person who happens to have the mental capacity to figure out the use of turn signals) who to vote for in the upcoming elections.
You can get this bumper sticker here - If you don't know how to manipulate your vehicle, don't drive it. Your pickup is not a bus. You don't need to slow down to 10MPH and make wide turns when you are turning right. Also, if parking your vehicle is beyond your skillset, don't drive it.
- Use the cart corrals. I am sick of pulling in to a store parking lot and having to take five carts to a corral less than twenty feet away, just so they don't get blown into someone's car door in the Corpus Christi wind.
- If you are walking across the parking lot and I'm nice enough to stop and let you cross in front of me, there is an implicit contract there. My stopping does not mean that you and your partner get to have a pleasant conversation, dawdling along while you cross the lane diagonally, taking seven times as much time to cross as necessary.

New: Start, Select, Option, System Reset - Atari 8-bit tee
Function keys? We had them way before the IBM PC Compatibles
Introductory price of $12.99 - coupon codes still apply.
So, what is this shirt about?
This shirt shows the four function keys on the Atari 8-bit computers, and those computers are listed in the bars meant to represent the "safety" on the 800, which helped keep you from accidentally pressing the System Reset button. The function keys were programmable and assigned various uses in different programs.
This shirt is available in a variety of color combinations, and you can request your own.
Some details on the shirts
All shirts are hand screened and are printed on demand. This shirt will generally be screened, heat set, and shipped within one to three business days of your order.

You can also request Hanes Comfortsoft cotton/poly blend tees (the hues will sometimes be slightly different on these).

New: IVF/LGBTQ onesie: Mommy+Mommy+Test Tube=Me!
Our Test Tube baby onesie is now available for babies with two mommies.
Just a minor change, but a big one all the same. It is available immediately.
Available in various colors, and you can make special requests. |
About the onesies
Screen printed on Carter's infant body suits. All body suits are printed on demand. You may request other ink colors. You may also request other body suit colors; however, they will be hand dyed and the hue may vary. Let me know what you would like in the Notes to Seller section or via a Convo and I will let you know if I can fulfill the request.
Note that in general, any special colors will have to be dyed by hand. I use Dharma Procion fiber reactive dye. Procion actually dyes the fiber, rather than laying a coat of color on the outside of it. This makes it color fast and safe, if your child decides that the clothes look yummy.
One point to note about it though is that it only dyes natural fibers; therefore, if there are (for example) polyester threads in the garment, they won't be dyed. This actually leads to quite a nice looking effect when it happens.
Another thing to note is that I might have to order the color that you desire, and that could add a few days to the time.

My Governor is an idiot and/or a pandering liar
He knows that Jade Helm 15 is just a regular military training exercise, or at least he should.
Get this shirt for an introductory price of 20% off for a limited time. Note that this shirt has no specific mention of Jade Helm 15, since the sentiment is certain to apply a myriad of times during his term.
Available in an assortment of colors |
