I'll try to set that up for sure! In the meantime, you can follow us on Instagram @shop_misercordia (https://www.instagram.com/shop_misercordia/). With regards to existential hope, I'm looking into some designs for utopian cities, as well.
It only took ~10 hours of work. I initially drew out the original design in pastel, and then scanned it and uploaded it to Figma, after which I edited it to my needs. The other one I paid a classmate $0.50 for the design and played with the filters on Figma to design the shirt. All the shirt designs were then uploaded to CustomInk, which allows for print on demand to multiple addresses so I don't need to have any inventory. I originally tried to create the website on Wix.com, but it was too expensive for my needs. The current website is built on Square, which is free and easy to use. It does take a cut of every transaction, but it is >2%. The domain name was free as well.
It's pretty exceptional that we live in a time where you can go from a neat idea to a company accepting transactions within a few days.
Do you still intend on donating a portion of your salary?

Yes! I made a silly error when writing out "Misericordia" on the original design, but I thought it sounded cooler, so I ran with it.
