I need more sleep

the pink stripe was simply taken away because pink fabric was too expensive to mass reproduce at the time, and the turquoise stripe was taken away for a really odd reason: for the harvey milk remembrance parade in 1979, they wanted three stripes on each side of the street and didn’t want it to be asymmetrical, so they did away with the turquoise stripe. like, they could have fixed it in some other way without removing a whole stripe, but eh whatever history’s history.

Happy one year anniversary to the LGBT Armory!!!

Pride month last year, you all helped me turn the Armory from my humble illustrations into pins, patches, stickers and more!

You can now purchase the Armory at my Etsy shop here in pin, patch and sticker form:

Or on apparel, home goods, prints or even more stickers at my Redbubble here:

I am currently working on new designs to expand on what I’ve built already, as well as the full illustration versions of NB and Genderqueer, which were developed for the kickstarter originally!

A friendly ghost rest stop before you continue your day! 💗

Mark Twain loved to travel and once wrote, 

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”

By the way, this is some actual footage of Mark Twain, shot by Thomas Edison in 1909.
