Got a message on redbubble that basically said "jysk there's a Kickstarter clearly based on one of your designs" and HELLO ANXIETY

I checked it out and the resemblance is.... undoubtedly there! I'm entirely willing to believe the person in question just came up with the same solution to an intersection of subjects that I did, but.... even if that's the case it still is a very weird experience for me.

I've reached out to the artist running the Kickstarter in the hopes that we can just... talk? And maybe that'll help it feel less weird. :S
