A small headstone. R.I.P. above, the dates 1455 to 2022 below, and a coral em-dash lying where the name should go. Gutenberg's press on one end, the first chatbot everyone actually used on the other. Below it, one line: it fell in with the wrong crowd.

The em-dash was a fine piece of punctuation for centuries. This tee mourns it properly.

Printed on the women's fit cut: soft combed ringspun cotton, relaxed through the body, side seamed and a little longer, next to the shop's boxy unisex heavyweight tee.

For writers and editors, and for anyone who has had their own prose flagged as machine-written for using a semicolon and a dash in the same sentence.

The artwork is drawn from plain shapes: a bar, a circle, a rounded rectangle, arranged by hand. No AI generator touched it, and the listing's how it's made setting says so too.
