Are you actually an orphan?

Yep. Full-fledged, card-carrying adult orphan. This brand is powered by grief, gallows humor, and caffeine.

Isn’t this… a little dark?

So was the funeral. We’re just making the best of it.

Is it okay to laugh at this?

We checked. The United Nations says it’s fine. Probably.

Do your shirts come with trauma support?

No, but they do come with premium cotton and a vague sense of unresolved grief.

Will wearing this shirt make people uncomfortable?

God, we hope so. If not, try pairing it with a thousand-yard stare and a hollow laugh.

Is this brand trauma-informed?

Yes, and trauma-formed. And trauma-funded. We’re really leaning in.

What if my parents are still alive? Can I still wear this?

Sure, but be prepared for them to ask some very awkward questions.

For when small talk just isn’t cutting it. Styled like a classic name badge, this darkly funny shirt introduces you and your baggage before anyone even says hi. Equal parts awkward, confrontational, and hilarious—because healing is expensive, but sarcasm is free.
