Cake Against Hate T Shirt

Do you like Cake? I sure do. It’s celebratory, delicious, and meant to be shared. That spirit is at the heart of a growing grassroots idea often associated with the phrase Cake Not Hate which uses food and community as a simple reminder that kindness is always a better starting point than division.

In that same spirit, I’m featuring a new T-shirt design by Machmigo that I absolutely love: Cake Against Hate. The design shows a slice of pink-frosted cake and a pink fork paired with fun lettering that turns a familiar comfort food into a clear and uplifting message. It’s playful, a little cheeky, and very on-brand for anyone who believes small visual statements can still carry real weight.

If you live out on the West Coast or, even better, Hawaii, and haven’t yet managed to get yourself dressed and out of the house, I just wanted to give you a head’s up that today is Wear Purple Wednesday. Wear Purple Wednesday aims to raise awareness of Gay Rights by honoring recent gay teen suicides and hate crime victims that have made headlines in the past few weeks. Can you even imagine how much it would suck to not be able to be yourself out of intimidation or fear for your own safety? As author and sex advice columnist Dan Savage once wisely said, “Tolerating Others is the Price We Pay for Being Tolerated Ourselves.” So, remember the Golden Rule (Jesus said it), love your neighbor as you love yourself, and wear some purple today.

For me, September 11, 2001 is a day that takes too long to talk about. I hope that everyone is praying for peace and contemplating the concept of tolerance today. That is all.
