Got an email that says “please pay $33 + shipping to get a t-shirt with our ad on it”

There’s people that would actually pay for something like this? This stuff is usually give away for free at conferences and then used as a sleeping dress, no?

    I mean, I wear band merch all the time, which is basically t-shirts, hats and hoodies that advertise the band.

      I was going to say the same. But I think there’s a big difference between a band (art) and like the startup tshirts I’ve accumulated as “free swag” over the years (not art).

      A band is cool and human expression. Some website that sells ads in emails is capitalist nonsense.
