Possibly the Best T-Shirt Ever: I Have No Idea What I’m Doing

This is quite possibly one of the most awesome t-shirts I’ve ever seen, inspired by the card “Donate your body to cat science” from Exploding Kittens, NSFW edition. Available in sizes Small to 3XL.

Doctor Tinycat holds up a human heart between the words “I have no idea what I’m doing” on the front of this black 100% cotton shirt.

Doctor Who TARDIS Console Motion Light

Few people can fly the TARDIS, but everyone can turn on a lamp!

Now you can turn any room into the inside of the TARDIS with this nifty Console Motion Light. Only it will be much calmer, because this console won’t whisk you off to any intergalactic wars or assorted space terrors. Instead of a light that pulsates, this lamp heats up internal waxy blobs that flow and melt hypnotically – just like another type of psychedelic lamp that happens to have been created in 1963, the same year as Doctor Who. Coincidence? Perhaps. But as the Doctor says, “Never ignore a coincidence. Unless you’re busy, in which case always ignore a coincidence.”

God, this movie has me drooling. I think it has us ALL drooling.

In this video, they take a different approach by explaining “optimistic nihilism,” the philosophy behind most of what they create and one of the reason why they think everyone should make everything in their power to be happy. Check it out!
