One year ago today, I sold my first pin badge at canopyrobin.etsy.com and set out to fund my trans healthcare expenses sustainably by creating a small business alongside my fulltime job. This quoted thread shares the 17 designs and 106 variations I've made since then!

Getting like 20,000 views on a LinkedIn post is so weird. Like, what now? Are you all going to hire me to tell you AI is gross again?

The old pronoun labeller was so useful, not only for showing how to refer to people but also for showing who cared enough to use it. Seeing who adopts this new one is also interesting and hopefully eventually just as useful!

I keep seeing this trend on LinkedIn where people are asking ChatGPT to generate a caricature of them based on what it knows about them... wtf? It baffles me that they would not only not care about the ethics of such frivolous AI but then also not be embarrassed to post it in a professional space

I may have misjudged how popular these would be 😅

Just realised that this is now only about 3/4 of the pins I've made 🤯

It's definitely an 'order a big pizza and stop thinking' kind of a Friday night

Really proud of coming up with the idea of this one.

@nightkristina.bsky.social did a fantastic job of putting this together.

You know you look tired when you get on the wrong bus but the driver takes pity and drives you home anyway 😅

17 hours door-to-door and absolutely exhausted by the day-trip to London but what a great day with @linneansociety.bsky.social!

Really inspiring to hear @rossbrooks.co.uk speak about what he's learnt writing his new book. You should all preorder it ;)

New pins are up on my etsy! They're a little more straightforward than my usual designs but I wanted to focus on minority flags that are harder to find as high quality pins.

As always, all sales help support my transition costs so any boost is massively appreciated 🏳️‍⚧️ canopyrobin.etsy.com

Also, there's a Pride version now! 🏳️‍🌈

Like all my designs, profits from these pins will help to fund my transition costs and sharing the queerness of nature through art like this feels so important right now. I hope you like them! canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4386...

“How can I be a better ally to trans people?”

Buy us pizza.

This isn’t a joke. I’m fully serious.
