I May Be Slow But I Can Win Canvas Bag

I May Be Slow But I Can Win Canvas Bag

By admin on February 26, 2010

I got a lot of feedback that people loved the “Slower Than Others” gear I added to No Pity City recently, so here’s something different starring a very similarly drawn tortoise. I just love the design of this bag!

Some Of Us Move Slower than Others Mug

By admin on January 6, 2010

This cute little snail doesn’t care that he moves slowly. He’s letting everyone know that being slower is just right for him! If somebody is moving slowly – literally or metaphorically – please remember that it’s probably not by their choice. Many people have invisible problems, things you can’t see, that slow them down. Pain, [...]

If somebody is moving slowly – literally or metaphorically – please remember that it’s probably not by their choice. Many people have invisible problems, things you can’t see, that slow them down. Pain, fatigue, and a lot of other problems can force people to move slowly even when they want to be fast.

But You Don’t Look Sick Coffee Mug

By admin on December 18, 2009

“But You Don’t Look Sick!” It must be the phrase heard most often by those with chronic illness, chronic pain, and invisible disabilities. It’s the phrase that inspired me most when I wrote the Open Letter To Those Without Invisible Chronic Illness, which tries to explain how to best support a chronically ill friend or [...]

Some Of Us Move Slower than Others Sticker

Some Of Us Move Slower than Others Sticker

By admin on December 17, 2009

What the sticker says is most definitely true – some of us move slower than others. And some of us move a lot slower. And it’s not fun to be the one forced to go slow, especially when the public isn’t accommodating of slowness. If somebody is moving slowly in front of you, please remember [...]

What A Person With An Invisible Disability Looks Like Shirt

By admin on November 3, 2008

This is what a person with an invisible disability looks like … exactly like anybody else. Wear this shirt when you’re sick of getting abuse for using your disabled parking permit.

By admin on October 7, 2008

The word ‘sick’ can mean manay things, and I find that leaving the precise meaning open to speculation can sometimes be … rather interesting.

Handle With Care – Feeling Fragile Today Tee Shirt

By admin on September 15, 2008

Sometimes we just don’t feel as “gung ho” and “out there” as the slogans on some of these shirts. I decided I wanted to design some “more gentle” slogans for those days that people needed some TLC and this was my first try.

Not so fond of your meds? Meds don’t work anyway? Not your first priority? Better advertise it to the unsuspecting world so they can give you a wide berth … hopefully wide enough that you get a seat on the train!
