Survival By Snark & Sincerity: Shiny Things In Dark Times

We have ordered samples of all of the possible pins from our manufacturer & they are currently in production. We usually expect that process to take about 4 weeks, so we start it as soon as a project hits its funding goal. That means that we should have samples in hand by the time we receive funds from BackerKit & allow us to make any necessary corrections & order as soon as we have backer surveys.

A sneak peek behind the curtain, just a couple of the proofs:

We are under $300 from our next stretch goal,  the alternate colorways for our cisn't pins, and the proofs for those, including the rainbow & genderfluid colorways we'll unlock at $8600, are tucked in our exclusive backer content for this update. 👀

We have unlocked another stretch goal! Everyone who has backed for at least one pin will get a Justice Is A Persistence Predator sticker, free!

Just a quick note about this before we go offline in solidarity with the second general strike in Minneapolis. 

Y'all rock, and I'm very hopeful that we can unlock all the cool things. :]

Question: Are the sticker designs the same as the pins?
Answer: Yes, with the exception of the as-yet-locked "Support Your Local Commuter" pin, which is slightly different in pin form. It has a black outline as a pin rather than the white outline it has as a sticker.


Question: Can you add community whistles as an add-on?
Answer: Man, I hope we don't need those by the time this project will ship. I mean, we can, BUT. In all seriousness, this project is not scheduled to ship until late summer, with the time necessary for surveys, pin manufacturing, and shipment, so if you need whistles, you're better off contacting us through our regular website. That'll get you whistles expeditiously. :)

Question: What do the 4A and 10A pins and the possible "Fuck You, Make Me" look like?
Answer: In development! Spider spent tonight putting together most of the sample order for our pin manufacturer, and his brain is falling out of his ears.

Question: How about the genderfluid & rainbow cisn't pins?
Answer:

Thank you all for your patience!

I've set the Justice Is A Persistence Predator as an already-unlocked achievement, since, well, we've shot up quite a bit. I've added quite a few others, and I have a "Fuck You, Make Me" design in development if we meet all of these. ;) 

Hello friends,

For those of you who don't know, Emet was born in St. Paul and lived in the Twin Cities until she was 28. Our stepkid still lives there.

I'll have the new stretch goals - including a couple of new designs I made this weekend - up by tomorrow. 

Thank you all for your support and patience. Please take care of yourselves and each other.

May the memory of Alex Pretti be for a blessing. 

Solidarity, 
Spider
