New decade – new T-shirt
Wednesday, December 30, 2009 6:38
I may be a little more idealistic than Mikey (which isn’t difficult, a cynical demon from Hell would be more idealistic than him) but it seems significant to me that we’re saying goodbye to a decade that’s been a pretty tough ten years all round: tsunamis and terrorists and collapsing economies and climate change …
Well, good riddance! I wanted to pick a T-shirt that was uplifting and had a powerful message for the future. I know I whine a lot (or so Mikey tells me) about T-shirts that are tacky and degrading, but it seems to me that if you’re going to wear a message, it’s important that what you’re saying is meaningful, not just funny. We actually had a fight about this pick because my colleague thinks the ‘New Year’s Resolution – Take Long Ego Trips’ teeshirt is a better choice than my redbubble one. He’s wrong, for so many reasons …
But even Mikey agrees that the layout on this teeshirt is neat, simple and elegant. The message is expressed universally, no clever words needed, just a stark imagery that links the date, the world and the wearer. I like Redbubble, which describes itself a ‘forum for self expression, an inclusive art gallery and a supportive and welcoming community’ and we haven’t featured it for a long time. So here you are, the last teejunkie T-shirt of the year, and one that I hope makes you think a little about where we go from here.
