Consider this your official sign to visit .and.destroy this week!🔥👕

From custom shirts to 1-inch buttons, John's shop offers something for everyone, with no order minimums! Perfect for finding gifts for your graphic tee-obsessed pals!

You may even recognize some familiar designs! They provided Oshkosh Pride volunteer shirts.🏳️‍🌈

As John puts it, "I want everyone who places an order with me to know I’m giving you my all and to be completely satisfied with what you receive, because I care".

Did you see our next book club read? Join us for Reading the Rainbow: "Dan in Green Gables" by Rey Terciero & Claudia Aguirre

"[S]ometimes we have to build the home we want to find for ourselves. So I wrote Dan in Green Gables as a love letter, not only to the stubborn red-headed orphan Anne Shirley, but to my dad's religious family who rejected me as a boy on account of my q***rness. Yes, the world feels like it is falling apart. But through stories, I'm hoping to instill the next generation—and maybe my own peers—with a little love, to let them know they are not alone, and they too can help to build a better world and a better home."

Check out the article for an excerpt from the book!

Dan in Green Gables, from author Rey Terciero and illustrator Claudia Aguirre, adapts a children's classic for the 21st century. Here's an exclusive excerpt.

Help support us by getting a rad shirt from an amazing shop!
Thanks again Shirts and Destroy Print Shop 💕

Thanks to everyone who came out to Oshkosh Pride on Saturday, it was such a great day and I had a blast.

I just put up the remaining shirts in the online store. Sizes and quantities are limited, and just like Saturday, half of the proceeds from these shirts will be donated to my friends at the Northeast Wisconsin Rainbow Collective.

Local pickup is an option at checkout, so if you live in the area and want to save on shipping costs, you can always pop into the shop to pick up your order.
