Someone is trying to crowdfund a unicorn that farts rainbows when you get a Tweet
The latest crowdfunding venture to throw all your money at is a plastic unicorn that announces your Twitter notifications with “a blast of awesomeness” (i.e some smoke and lights out of its equine back door).
For just under fifty quid you can get a “stand alone robotic mythical beast that talks to the internet and lets you know when wonderful things happen“. Though that probably seems less appealing if you’re a woman getting streams of online abuse for daring to have an opinion about anything.
They’ve also provided this diagram to answer any technical questions you might have.
At the moment they’ve raised 16% of their total goal with the help of 16 backers. That’s 16 people who clearly need to be tracked down, taken to one side and talked to. Sternly. Needless to say the online reaction seems less than enthusiastic.

@internetofshit I mean…I’d probably actually get one but why is the unicorn crying? Does it know how terrible it is?
