Description

This shirt says "I do not recommend this timeline," and reads like a status update nobody asked for but everyone understands. It is about watching the world spiral while people insist everything is normal. ICE raids, MAGA noise, authoritarians posturing, fascists getting comfortable, and the pressure to keep smiling through it all. Available as short or long sleeve for adults and short sleeve for kids, in various colors. This one is for people who are paying attention and refusing to pretend the chaos is fine.

Fight With Purpose

Automatic donations to related charities

Fair ask. We’ve been creating anti-fascist and progressive art for over 25 years. Chicago made us, but now we’re full-time nomads making art and products that espouse our beliefs in human rights and social justice. We design things for the communities we come from and the ones we fight alongside, with a portion of sales donated to causes we support. We’re stubborn, loud, and allergic to neutrality. No fascists. No excuses.

Most of our items are available in a wide range of sizes. Additionally, most items are available in various styles. If you see a T-shirt design you like and want it on a hoodie, check the hoodies section or use the search bar. You can also customize the style and color of most designs in the custom section of our website.

Feel free to contact us if you can't find what you're looking for, and we'll do our best to make it happen.

We donate $1 of each item sold to non-profits and organizations supporting progressive, humanitarian, and justice-oriented causes around the world. All donations are automatically calculated and transferred to our charity partner every month to ensure compliance and timely processing.

We want you to love your Strange Gang goodies! If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you request a return for a refund or exchange within 7 days of receipt. Please note that all returns must be unworn and unwashed. Simply contact us at info@strangegang.com and we'll guide you through the process. Read more here. Important: Custom items cannot be returned for any reason, but damaged items can be replaced.

Bad Timeline Club

There is a specific kind of exhaustion that comes from being told everything is fine when it very clearly is not. "I do not recommend this timeline" is what slips out when you are done playing along.

This shirt exists in the space between awareness and disbelief. The feeling you get when the headlines stack up faster than your nervous system can process them. ICE showing up like it is routine. MAGA pretending cruelty is policy. Authoritarians gaining ground while people argue about decorum. Fascists getting bolder because too many are still pretending this is just politics as usual.

Strange Gang x EGOPROOF made this for people who are done minimizing reality to make others comfortable. For the ones who notice how quickly things escalate when nobody pushes back. For those who understand that silence does not create safety, it just creates permission.

This is not panic. It is clarity. It is recognizing that pretending things are normal has never stopped harm. Every era that slid toward authoritarianism had plenty of people insisting it was not that bad yet. History is loud about how that turned out.

Wearing this is not about doom. It is about refusing denial. About naming the moment we are in instead of gaslighting ourselves into compliance. You can still live your life, laugh with friends, show up for joy, and say out loud that this timeline is unacceptable. Those things are not opposites.

This shirt belongs to people who read the news and still go outside. Who care deeply and stay human anyway. Who know that paying attention is not the same as giving up. It is a form of resistance.

"I do not recommend this timeline" is not sarcasm for clicks. It is a statement of boundaries. A way of saying you see what is happening and you are not buying the spin. It is for people who refuse to normalize cruelty, who call out fascism when they see it, and who understand that history is shaped by those willing to name the problem while it is still unfolding.

Wear it as a signal. Not of despair, but of awareness. The world does not need more people pretending everything is fine. It needs people honest enough to say this is not it.
