Stickers

[grayestofghosts]

I am trying to get over my fear of actually using my stickers. so I've actually put one on my laptop now. (Don't worry! I bought three of these so I still have two more!!)



There is the concept that I see articulated about using stickers like 'sticker regret', as in, what if I get rid of the thing I put the sticker on? What if I change my mind, then I wasted the sticker? etc. etc., but there's not much on the fact that, well, once you have one sticker on a laptop or guitar case or whatever, it looks unbalanced, and don't you need more? But, oh... well, you know.

Anyway, this sticker is by hellovoid.online, if you're similarly interested in retro computerisms. (I know you are. You're on Dreamwidth, for god's sake.)

[i genuinely liked the part where it greetslapped me in the face with 'no uk lolsoz' - i appreciate that upfront honesty in a business. pardon me while i browse tf around anyway ]

[interesting mention on the one-sticker oddity feeling. i appreciate places that offer 3-for-$5 (or similars) on stickers just for that. its like patches, pins, beads, hair ornaments. one single item is only the precipice of a decora meltdown ]

Oof, yeah. I'm across the Atlantic so it just took a long time to get to me but it did eventually get here. The UK seems to need a lot of stuff getting sorted out. I've seen some online order forms wibble around about shipping to the UK, it's probably nice for it to be upfront.

A lot of times when I buy stickers they're just add-ons to a larger purchase so I don't think to buy more than one. But then... I have only one... Aaaaahhh...

[yeah rn if a company is like 'would not like to do business w the uk' i find it quite #relatable. just tell me before i get to the checkout. though im getting better at checking shipping policies before i browse the shop window at least ]

[nonetheless now i have discovered that they have me on a shirt, i have to buy it and get it here somehow *schemeplot* ]

[i wish you further luck on bypassing sticker regret - every now and again i do a dedicated lil shop for stickers/patches/etc, i dont worry about buying more than one. i bought like ten 'gender is a universe' and 'not all disabilities are visible' cos i Knew id want those on lots of things ]
