Thank you so much for your kind words, and I’m glad you’re loving it!

I’m always delighted by how much people enjoy it. We sold out of it at #twintierscomiccon so of course I had to come home and make more! 🏳️‍⚧️ I refuse to attend a show without it in our stock.
just got out of the shower and smell amazing! highly recommend the transgender soap from @theknittingfaun.bsky.social

Table stock progression with our bald capybara set-up from #twintierscomiccon, throughout the con. We had a lovely time and hope to be back next year (with our displays!).

We’re rolling along on our way home, hoping to get online orders sent out today!

Walk with me to our table at #rhodeislandcomiccon ! We’re at table 815, walk with me from the lobby to see how to get there. We’re around a couple landmarks, like the restrooms, but when in doubt, look for the “800” sign!
