Hello! If you're an Autostraddle Plus member, you're well aware of the fact that we are very in need of money at this time. So we're stocking the Autostraddle Store with all kinds of new stuff for the holiday season that we're sure everybody will fall desperately in love with and feel compelled by forces larger then ourselves to purchase, en masse, for everybody they've ever known or loved or maybe even for themselves. Anyhow, you can look forward to that new merch rolling in circa Thanksgiving.

Join a crew of extraordinary humans who keep Autostraddle here for everyone!
