Funnier On Paper

Monthly Donation update! YOU ARE ALL AMAZING. For the month of November, we were able to donate $500 (plus processing fees) to in Minneapolis, MN. Bridge for Youth provides runaway and homeless youth with safe shelter, assists in the prevention and resolution of family conflicts, and reunifies families whenever possible. $500 provides one family with one month of basic needs (food, clothing, etc.) So thank you, thank you, thank you! You are all so appreciated.

For the month of December, 15% of sales will be donated to MIGIZI in Minneapolis, a circle of support that nurtures the development of Native American youth in order to unleash their creativity and dreams – to benefit themselves, their families and community. MIGIZI puts youth first, supporting youth-driven activities that fully engage youth in a self-directed path to holistic wellness and to success in education and employment. MIGIZI means "bald eagle" in the Ojibwe language.

You know that meme about small business owners doing a little happy dance whenever we get an order? It’s 100% true. Even after 3 years of orders. So thank you. Thank you for all the orders over the small business, Black Friday, Cyber Monday weekend and every other day of the week, year, month. Feel free to imagine me doing that dance when you hit that order button, cause it’s for sure happening.

That being said, these little lovelies are flying out of my hands before I can even make them! They are currently on a “pre-order” status on my site (my shipment of blanks is delayed + I don't want to talk about it). But I promise they will be on their way with plenty of time before Christmas! Sending another huge thank you to everyone who continues to order them anyways! I might be stressed about the delay in getting them out to you, but I am DEFINITELY still doing that little happy dance in between (most likely to Mariah Carey. You know the song. You picturing it now?)

Orna-meant to be?

It’s Monday night. It’s way past my bedtime and here I am experimenting with coasters and doing photo shoots with disco balls I forgot I had.

Phewf! How ‘bout that collective release of anxiety we all experienced this weekend? A-f**king-mazing. Amirite? A feeling I will never, ever EVER forget.

Today’s the daaaaaay! 4 long ass mfn destructive years and finally, today is the day. If you haven’t already, vote like our damn lives depend on it because seriously, they really f’n do.

First things first, IT’S FRIIIDAYYYY! And it’s also donation update day! For the month of September, thanks to all you wonderful souls, we were able to donate $300 to in St. Paul, MN, who works to provide financially and culturally accessible care to q***r and trans youth and their families, as well as continue to train practitioners and partner in community to create systems of change at the intersection of gender and racial justice.

As always, I appreciate every single one of you for helping support our communities and my little small business too. This month, 15% of October’s overall sales (*100% of the sales on any BLM art) will be donated to in Minneapolis, MN. “For 25 years, Avenues has supported youth ages 16-24 in Hennepin County. Whether a young person needs someplace to stay for just one night, or a year and a half, Avenues empowers youth to find their path out of homelessness. We do that by providing a stable home, building trusting relationships, and navigating the youth’s education, career, health and wellness and housing goals.”

You are all so friggin’ dope! HAPPY FRIDAY!

PS. I love all orders that come in, but sticker ones like this are my absolute favorite.

HI! I’ve been MIA on the social media lately (as you may or probably may have not noticed), cuz ya know, life is weird right now, BUT I am most definitely still working behind the scenes. I’m sure we have all said this in the last 24 hours, but how the f is it September already?? Seriously though! That being said, it’s time for a donation update! For the month of August, thanks to all of you, we were able to raise $350 for in St. Paul. “Each year, Face to Face serves over 3,000 disadvantaged youth. Through the services we provide, youth are able to continue their education, have their basic needs met, receive healthcare and work on their future goals. Every day, we see lives transformed and stability achieved.”

As always, I appreciate every single one of you for helping support our communities and my little small business too. This month, 15% of September's overall sales (*100% of the sales on any BLM art) will be donated to in St. Paul, MN, who provides accessible mental health support for q***r and trans youth.

AND THANK YOU for sticking with me even when I disappear off the social media planet for a while. I appreciate you all more than you know. KEEP FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT!

Donation update! Thanks to all of your orders in July, I was able to donate $400 to ! Appreciate all of you for helping make that happen.
