Official Procurement Division
The Institute Shop
Tangible goods for the discerning observer of everyday absurdity. The shop is currently in its pre-operational phase, which is a formal way of saying it does not yet exist.
The Institute thanks you for your patience. The Institute is also still figuring out shipping.
Opening Hours: To Be Determined
The procurement division is currently in the planning phase. Unlike the miniature humans' stairwell project, we intend to complete the planning phase before the implementation phase. Progress is being made.
Planned Inventory
Items Under Development
The following product categories have been proposed, discussed, and in some cases sketched on a notepad that has since been misplaced.
Field Notes & Journals
Blank journals formatted to Institute specifications. Includes pre-printed stardate fields, a "Things I Will Definitely Remember" section, and a dedicated page for grocery lists that will stay home.
Feline Operations Division Merchandise
Apparel and accessories bearing the likenesses of the Institute's Feline Operations Division: Meowma (Founder & Principal Investigator), Cedar (Research Assistant, Water Source Division), Bonnie (Director of Public Relations), and Bob (Director of Quality Assurance). All designs pending division review. Meowma has sat on the proofs. Cedar has inspected the water used in the printing process. Bonnie has issued one notice. Bob has approved the snack budget.
Institute Insignia
Enamel pins, patches, and stickers representing the various research divisions. Suitable for lab coats, tote bags, and other surfaces that benefit from a small amount of whimsy.
Horticultural Division Goods
Seed packets, plant markers, and a laminated card titled "It Is Probably Fine: A Guide to Optimistic Gardening." Includes a section on tomatoes that grow toward the neighbor's yard.
Notify Me Upon Opening
Leave your details and the Institute will contact you when the shop is operational. This is not a binding commitment on either side.
The Institute does not sell, trade, or misplace your email address. The Feline Operations Division has no access to the mailing list. Bob has been informed of this. Bob has opinions about this.
