Gente: Welp. Here’s a post we didn’t think we’d be writing a few days ago.
https://lnpgaceta.gumroad.com/p/announcement-staying-gold-or-sky-blue
We've just sent off our first donations to Casa Pueblo (https://casapueblo.org/) and Brigada Solidaria del Oeste (https://www.bsopr.com/) from Tiendita sales.
If you want to help, and you want a cool shirt while you're at it, 100% of the proceeds from this design by @Louisa go to BSO:

Can you imagine pitchers trading nothing but ~82 MPH fastballs for 4.5 innings?
Guess what: if you tune in, you won't have to imagine it. The #IngenierosRIN 
and #AtléticosSGR 
decided to make the weirdest bet in 1871 baseball history, and it whips.

No fancy graphics, but at 7:05 PM, @nsmckinnon and @Louisa are calling a ballgame: it’s the divided loyalty match of the #IngenierosRIN versus the #AtléticosSGR !

Back at it again with T-SHIRTS 🎉
@lnpgaceta and I made a new one to support Brigada Solidaria del Oeste ( https://www.bsopr.com/ ) aiding Hurricane Fiona relief! Featuring a coquí, the tiny frog native to Puerto Rico, and the loudest frog in the world (with a little creative license to give it 🇵🇷 colors)
So you see how "it might be small but it sings very loudly" applies
If you’d like to donate directly to BSO, we’re certainly not going to stop you.
PayPal: brigadasolidariaoeste@gmail.com
@Louisa Should've remembered that Mastodon would grab the first hyperlink in the toot.

If you'd like to help #HurricaenFiona relief efforts *and* get an excellent shirt, 100% of proceeds on the sale of this 
design (by artistic director @Louisa, natch) go to Brigada Solidaria del Oeste (https://www.bsopr.com/), an island organization working to help the communities hardest-hit by the hurricane.

@whami Who wouldn’t? Do you *want* rogue coughs? Colds? Abundant chest discharges?
Gaceta de la LNP

@lnpgaceta I'd vote for that.

@whami That’s right. Our platform:
1) a ballgame every night, and
2) wood tar in every mug.

@lnpgaceta Are you going into politics? That's a lot of words for a non-answer.

@whami Is tea not made from steeped leaves, berries, et cetera? Are leaves not from plants, like wood is? Is tar not produced with heat?*
What we’re trying to say is, tea is just boneless wood tar.
* We actually don’t know the answer to this question.

I wonder how Dr. González would feel about a cup with his wood tar liquor branding merely being used for tea.

I've been adding things to my Threadless shop! I'd say it's for Halloween but I make stuff like this year round 🎃
I'll keep this thread updated with designs as I make them!
Because @Louisa is an absolute hoss when it comes to making art, we’ve got something a little less baseball-centric coming out later today from the Tiendita to help raise funds. Watch this space.

Hurricane Fiona, relief for 🇵🇷
If you donated to any of these, and you feel like getting a shout-out during a fictional ballgame set in an alternate Puerto Rico (that probably has a much less damaged power grid, or will one year), e-mail me a receipt to lnpgaceta@gmail.com and I’ll be happy to mention you during the next @lnpgaceta broadcast.
@thomas As the local #IngenierosRIN superfan, you really need to check this one out.
One of you absolute heroes just ordered enough that Casa Pueblo's getting $17. From *one* order!
You've got about 26 hours to use that TAKE15 code! Get 15% off everything in the cart *and* we'll donate all the proceeds straight to Casa Pueblo to provide electricity and other resources for Puerto Ricans who need it.
This latest Boletín covers April 20th-30th, 1871—so much stuff we had to divide it into two parts.
Part 1 covers everyone's most beloved team, the #IngenierosRIN —if you're enjoying these, consider subscribing (it's free!) to get them automatically.
