Dice Machine
This dice machine is powered by ancient science, specifically Archimedes' Screw. It takes your dice and rolls them up through the inner workings of this cannon-like dice machine in order to roll them. Could you just put them in your hand and give them a throw? Sure, if you don't want to be awesome. But you do want to be awesome, and that's why this Desert Bus themed Dice Machine calls your name.
Auction ends at 2am PT
Cuphead's Cala Maria
To paraphrase renowned bard Billy Joel, we all have a face that we hide away. Some are satin, some are steel. Some are silk and some are leather. Still others are mermaid and/or medusa depending on how recently you pissed them off you pesky little mackerel. Whatever mood she's in (and you can flip the poster up or down to show it), Cuphead's Cala Maria could be yours!
Auction ends at 2am PT
We have two silent auctions closing soon so get to bidding if you want to win.
First we have The Words of Desert Bus Book
They say history is written by the Video Strike Team—and they're very good at it! But they're not recording words. Like, in writing. Y'know, the way humanity first learnt to record History™; the way it ought to be recorded! So I'm here to fix that.
Words of Desert Bus 2022 is a collection of 20 calligraphy pieces and watercolour paintings created during the Desert Bus 2022 run, capturing memorable moments we've all since forgotten ("I don't form memories during Desert Bus," Cam, p. 23). Also included are 4 new pieces, a Shift Banner title page painting, and an Omega Shift front cover painting. The pieces are carefully laid out with colourful mattes and calligraphic captions in this 26-page book.
The original works are mounted using acid-free, archival materials and reversible techniques. They can be removed from the book individually for framing or alternative mounting.
The crafter accepts no responsibility for ghost-related shenanigans resulting from possession of this book.
To bid get a donor account and go here. Auction closes at 6:00 PM PST
Second we have Our Flag Means Death - Bonnet Banyan
"You wear fine things well."
This recreation of the banyan worn in Our Flag Means Death is made of velvet lined with soft silk noil in a matching fuchsia. Over 12 hours of hand stitching went into finishing the banyan after several hours of machine sewing. The weight of the velvet is an excellent compromise between a snuggie and a weighted blanket for decadent brooding.
This was made with big and tall measurements to fit most, but it can also be used as home decor. Special thanks to actors Josephine Moshiri Elwood and Nael Nacer for modeling. You can see how beautiful it will be on you whether you are small, tall, or literally a wall. Of course it can also be taken to your local tailor to be hemmed just for you. Another alternative fit option for wheelchair users would be to have a tailor convert it into a shrug and matching lap blanket.

We had a good fun time together today, but it's time for us to head out into the sunset. Or I guess technically the noon sun but let's not think about that.
Also you really shouldn't trust me or Ashley with weapons of lighted destruction. But this is what you get when you join the Sith of Desert Bus.
It's ok, just behave and listen to the rules and you'll be fine!
As usual we started strong with another Coffee Pong game, today being the match of Carrie v. Kate!
We started off strong with Carrie...."accidentally" knocking the ball into her own cup; the coffee gremlin strikes again!
I can't really fully explain the full....depth of this match, so I'd highly suggest giving the full thing a watch, but trust that it was a lot....and technically one of them won!
Of course, somebody just HAD to make a challenge for James to do a spoken word version of the Caillou theme, which means Ashley had to do her duty to punish him for his choices.
And we definitely didn't deface any of the set. Nope.
Definitely not.
We also had a fun little romp into the minds of chat with a game of Family Feud!
Don't forget that we did a wonderful live auction! Probably. Let's go with that! We auctioned the amazing Dune wall clock, and thank you so much to Ghost of Jeff Goldblum for winning that for $6,820.69! (nice)
And we finally have a wonderful logo for DJ TurnLRR, provided by the amazing Pigeon Rose!
And don't forget the Dawn Guard Fashion Fest! Featuring multiple pets. Because we love them as much as we love everything else we have with us.
We look forward to seeing you tomorrow, so stick around and we'll see you with the next sunrise! And remember, don't forget to wiggle it out.
