The Nerdy Queer
@thenerdyqueer
Two queer nerds making Gear for the Gay & Geeky from a spare bedroom in Merseyside and shipping it around the world!
Star Wars, Star Trek, Pokemon, Splatoon, Pirates and Yakuza. What's the next fandom you'd like to see turned into a series of Pride Flag pins?
Don't buy the Pirate Game, buy a queer Pirate Pin and a Pirate Candle instead. I'm not laying off anybody. www.thenerdyqueer.com/shop/fandom/...
Welcome to THE NERDY QUEER! We are Zac & Eden, a queer couple from Merseyside making Pins, Candles, Art Prints and other assorted geeky goodness! Our home is thenerdyqueer.com, and you can find us at prides, cons and geeky markets near you (hopefully!)
Times are tough. Things are expensive. So we reduced the price of all of our enamel pins by 20%. All pins at thenerdyqueer.com are now only £8 each! This isn't a sale, it's a permanent change. No coupon code needed. thenerdyqueer.com
Thanks to @decodeven.bsky.social for spotting that our old site was totally non-functional (oopsie) BUT! Now we can introduce the BRAND NEW thenerdyqueer.com!
There's still a few days in pride month! Therefore, it's still the perfect time to grab a gay and geeky new pin! Trans Splatoon? Perhaps a She-Ra She/Her? Or are you more a Bisexual Star Trek kinda person? www.thenerdyqueer.com
FRESHLY RESTOCKED: The Viridian Forest Candle! The essence of autumnal nostalgia, notes of wild berries blended beautifully with lavender, musk and pine for an unforgettable scent, perfect for the start of your Pokemon Journey. 30 hour burn time www.thenerdyqueer.com/product/viri...
Splatoon Raiders is cool but it'd be cooler if it were gayer #splatoon #splatoonraiders thenerdyqueer.com/category/splatoon
TUESDAY! By now you must know what that means around here? If you order before 4pm, I'll take your order to the post office TODAY! Same day shipping, for free? Hell yeah! Get a pin! Get a candle! It's pride month! Treat yourself! thenerdyqueer.com
Our She-Ra She/Her pin sells really well, gets loads of attention and generally people love it. Her brother doesn't sell nearly as well, though. And I think that's a real shame. Because look at him! He's gorgeous! Surely some Masters of The Universe want this? www.thenerdyqueer.com/product/he-m...
Another FREE SAME DAY SHIPPING warning! Order before 4:30 today to get your order dispatched TODAY for no extra cost! Support a queer business this pride month and get yourself a pin or candle! You deserve a little treato thenerdyqueer.com
If anyone goes to see the new Masters Of The Universe movie wearing one of these pins, send me a photo and I will owe you one (1) drink and one (1) hug! www.thenerdyqueer.com/category/pro... #heman #shera #mastersoftheuniverse
PRIDE MONTH!! We've been selling a whole host of pride flags at thenerdyqueer.com for about 5 years now, and we're overjoyed with the range we've got! It still warms our heart to see your photos of our pins, and the few times we've seen them in the wild our hearts SOAR! Thanks, y'all!
This is the biggest amount of sales we've had to pack in one go, since leaving etsy. It's not huge, but it means so much to us that you're supporting us. Thank you.
PACKING DAAAAAY! Order before 2pm today and we'll get your stuff in the post SAME DAY! That means if you're in the UK, you can get it by tomorrow!! nerdyqueer.com
6. Metal Health. These were going to be a series of Patches, but someone on twitter got upset by the bipolar one (which was suggested by a bipolar friend of mine) and basically badgered us until we took not only that design down, but the entire campaign. Maybe they were right, idk.
5. The Lucha Masks Idk, these just never clicked with me. I hoped if I kept making them, they would fall into place but they never did.
4. Gender of the Forbidden One I had a lot of fun making this, but when I posted it, it got so little traction that I just figured nobody else thought it was as fun as I did
3. Queer! This one is cute, but mainly I was just unenthused about the design at the end of it? It didn't make me go "I NEED THIS!" So I dropped it.
2. Nothing Matters (Positive) Again, maybe this is too niche? I designed this when I was getting really into philosophy, but idk if anyone else would be interested in it. Especially not enough to justify making 100 of them
Thread of designs that never hit production, for one reason or another: 1. The Nier Pins. I really want these, so bad. But I don't know if the market is there, and there is a LOT of investment needed to make enamel pins. We would kickstart it, but those are getting less successful.
Overhauled the navigation on the website, including this new, fancy "Sort by flag" option! For no reason at all, you can now sort by all of our, say, Trans pins? www.nerdyqueer.com/page/trans
All set!! I always feel so minimalist compared everyone else's setup, but hey! It's a cute little stall that smells lovely!
This SUNDAY we will be at GEEK BAZAAR at the Liner Hotel in Liverpool! Come say hello if you're in the area, we'll be about all day selling our wares and chatting with cool people!
Revenge of the 6th! www.nerdyqueer.com/category/sta... #starwars #maythefourth #bsnm
