A+ Members Get 20% Off Autostraddle Merch — Including All New Designs!

and

Did you hear? We just launched a buttload of new merch in the Autostraddle store yesterday!

I want to give a BIG shoutout to everyone who participated in the merch conversation during our Discord event a few months ago! From those conversations we were inspired to turn the phrase “GAY CHAOS” from Surabhi into a pair of amazing socks and a gorgeous sticker. We also created The Lazy Femmes tee — which came out of a conversation about how queer merch kinda feels like band tees sometimes. And finally Snails, who tie-dyed their own Who All’s Gay Here tee, which inspired our very own tie-dyed version. Here are some of the conversations we had with you below:

surabhi: i love this gay chaos though sarah: also another great shirt idea
sarah: riese you should do a list of fake bands that are really merch. riese: my top 10 favorite band tees but they are all autostraddle merch
sarah: THE LAZY FEMMES
laneia: i just want to flag, in case anyone was thinking this was a bit just for the discord, that 40% of our usual conversations are very much "make this an article??!" so this really feels like an extension of our general channel in slack tonight WHICH IS TO SAY THAT I LOVE IT snails: tie dye!

  1. So excited! Socks! Yellow hoodie! Another Erin shirt!

    I’m not sure I trust FedEx or Walgreens, though, so I paid a little more for USPS. This made me feel even older (“What is this new-fangled pick up at a nearby location option??”) but I’m already leaning into it with the queer Elder pin anyway. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    • Oh THAT’S where you can pick up packages? WILDDDDD. YES LEAN IN, WISDOM IS HOT! and thank you so much for all your support.

  2. I’m soon-to-be all decked out in très gai apparel, oh what joy my mail delivery person will bring ! I should bake them a cupcake with sprinkles.

    Also looking forward to proudly announcing my Elder Queer status. That is such a miracle, I acknowledge it every day.

    Thanks to the artists and the great Autrostraddle fam for these goodies !

    • eeee! proud of you for announcing your status too, and i sure hope your mailperson gets a cupcake! thank you for shopping with us! 💗

  3. GAY! CHAOS!

    So cool seeing all this new merch! Gay chaos is perhaps my greatest accomplishment in life. Both as a merch idea and like, being a chaotic gay in general.

  4. The Queer As Fuck hoodie is so comfy and looks so good! Got compliments the first time I wore it (and I think it may have helped an overworked retail manager decide to offer to take the pants off a mannequin for me). My wardrobe is mostly gray and blue, but I LOVE this golden yellow color!

    Can also vouch for the comfiness of the socks. I haven’t got to try out the new tiedye Who All’s Gay Here shirt yet though. Trying to delay my partner’s complaints about me having three versions of the same shirt 😂 😬
