just a little reminder that we have these two pieces of merch still in stock – we’re running a little low on t shirts but we got plenty of tote bags still available!!

what would anyone fancy in the future? anything you guys want us to sort for yous? we’ve got a few ideas but definitely open to any suggestions!
