Earth: Meet Soft Punk A
Hi internet! I'm A, the sole owner and creator behind Soft Punk Slime, founded in early 2019. I am a proud disabled queer 30-something who is not afraid to openly talk about taboo shit like politics and gender identity via a Fine Art degree, some glue, and anxiety. When I first discovered slime, I had recently quit smoking cigarettes and needed a fidget tool. I quickly realized there weren't any slime shops marketed to people with my style of interests.
So I did it myself.
What started as a hobby quickly grew into a side project. In early 2021, once my disability labeled me unfit to go back to a "real" job, Soft Punk was able to become a full time commitment. And now the business's growth is off the charts!
I'd like to say what sets me and Soft Punk apart from other shops is more than just visual: it's a level of respect and integrity for the world, including you and me. But also, in the slime experience. My specialties are textures and scents; and they happen to be the two things I LOVE to experiment with the most. I can't wait for you to experience them for yourself!
I am floored with the opportunity to create for a living, meet other wonderful creatives, but also... to advocate for my community.
Several times a year, I will make donation slimes for you to help give to that community, too. Stay tuned to chip in!

There's nothing more punk than being soft when you need to.
