Yesterday marked 13 years since the Oklahoma City bombing, and today is the nine year anniversary of the tragedy at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado. We want to begin by acknowledging those who lost loved ones, and the many people who continue to live life in these communities. Today we stand with you and say that the lives lost matter, that those stories, and yours, are important, and that community matters. Thank you for the bravery you've displayed in picking up the pieces. We can't imagine what you've been through. We are sorry beyond words. We pray some healing has come as the days have passed. We know nothing can replace what was lost, but we hope and pray that life can be good again. We stand with you in the moments you remember.

As for the news about Hot Topic, we sent out a bulletin late Friday night (or early Saturday morning, depending where you live and/or when you go sleep). We posted it three more times over the weekend, and the response has been pretty incredible - over 1000 comments and a bunch of messages as well...

The news was (and is) this:
"TWLOHA's original black Title shirts are now available in Hot Topic stores across the west coast and midwest (USA). By early next week, TWLOHA shirts will make there way to HT's east coast locations as well. In total, we are more than thrilled to announce that TWLOHA shirts will be available in 650 locations around the country. By early next month, pink Title shirts will be showing up as well mortgage loan.

i will explain why we're thrilled about this news later today. I can tell you now it goes way beyond shirts and money. We love the idea that TWLOHA is being introduced in basically every major mall in the country. We want to be about hope and help, and we love the idea of people discovering those things. We love that the shirt and story that started all of this, are exactly what's going to be showing up in stores.

We're excited to say that this feels like a partnership, like the folks at Hot Topic believe in TWLOHA and want to share it with their audience. By early next week, HotTopic.com will be featuring an exclusive TWLOHA video, an interview we filmed a couple weeks ago, when i had the chance to visit their headquarters near Los Angeles...

Wanted to share this now in case you want to go take a peak at your local Hot Topic. We hope you find something familiar on a rack or on the wall. It would be huge if you wanted to buy a TWLOHA shirt for yourself or a friend, and it would be equally huge if you took a minute to tell the folks in the store a bit about TWLOHA... that you're excited to find it there, that sales from those shirts will be supporting treatment and recovery, or simply that TWLOHA means something to you... You see, we want to get off to a surprising stuff with Hot Topic because the sky's the limit in terms of ways we can work together, ways we can bring our message of hope to people in need of hope... We're already daydreaming about exclusive shirts, in-store events with our favorite artists...
