@ThisQueerBashesBack@anarchism.space would you prefer they phrased it as "for a limited time, donate $25 or more and receive a free thank-you gift in the form of a custom t-shirt from one of our contributing partners"
like… I don't know what changes you would actually want to make to this campaign? Your proposed "we donated x-many dollars and also were selling merch in which we keep the profits" seems worse than "we're donating x dollars for each unit of merch sold" for the charity in terms of exposure & money.

@ThisQueerBashesBack@anarchism.space This is already a strictly better campaign than (say) Twitch Unity, where Twitch sold time-limited Twitch branded queer-friendly merch but without any promise of a donation attached (in other words, pure pinkwashing).
In a perfect world they'd donate directly but in a perfect world they also wouldn't be allowed to make a CCG or to make profits as a private enterprise. In THIS world, they're donating 100% of the profits of shirt sales. Do you want a shirt or not

@ThisQueerBashesBack@anarchism.space If you want to donate to the charity directly, nobody's stopping you, but if you'd like to tell people who would recognise the symbol already "hey I not only play magic but I'm queer", this is your chance to do so while also supporting the charity.
tldr, a lot of people would have bought these shirts even if they didn't benefit an organisation, but the organisation is a good one who can definitely benefit. Hasbro are capitalists, but that's not going to change anytime soon.

@ThisQueerBashesBack@anarchism.space And? They're capitalists, of course they're going to run a campaign like this so it generates advertising and goodwill.
That still means:
-you can use the products on offer to signal your identity (both a magic player and queer)
-you can benefit a queer youth organisation in Seattle, a city with a very large homeless trans youth population

@Nine stay safe;;

@revenant "United Kingdom" was my first thought and also fails when you spell out "of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"

@Fenris la du genrokviraj esperantistoj ke mi konas uzi "ĝi"

@squirrel 〇〇から is "since x" or "from x"
so 四月一日から is what it wants

@Facet honestly I usually use ot3 and ot4 but (much like in real life) things get unweildy with larger numbers
