This Sunday, March 1st 2026, we’ll be (once again) haunting the virtual halls of CitrusCon—not with a talk, but with a “Q&Ad-lib”, an innovative panel format where Ms Boba attempts to prepare in advance, runs out of time, and is then forced to improvise live. Luckily, she’s good at that! …or is she?
If you want to help her—or, you know, the opposite—send in your questions here. We’ll be focusing on the future of the fandom web and how we can build it together.
Valentine's Day Promo: Time-Crossed Lovers Edition
Rejoice, Shippers! Come hither and feast your eyes on the new, improved RobinBoob, featuring a week-long, 15%-off-all-ships Valentine's Day bonanza.
Now, some naysayers might cry: "but how can you have a Valentine's promo, when February 14th was more than a week ago?" Irrelevant! What is time to real love? And what are other powerful, terrifying forces like, you know, launch deadlines?
In Top Shipshape: What better way to spend New Year holidays than to revisit one of our most beloved moneymakers April 1st jokes? RobinBoob came out the other side of 2025 with a serious "new year, new me": we added PayPal (our longest-standing request), braved database optimization so searches aren't painfully slow, and snuck in a handful of quality-of-life improvements ready for you to discover on your own. The short version: everything's faster, smoother, more featureful—and, of course, ready to take your hard-earned money in exchange for meaningless JPEGs (...or are they?).
Certified Gift-Giver: In true Valentine's spirit, you can now officially gift ship certificates to other people. No more putting in your bestie's email at checkout and hoping Stripe won't forward your credit card details (it wouldn't): we've built a proper gifting flow, complete with a notification email and personal note, so your giftees will always know you're thinking of them thinking of fictional characters smashing. If you haven't sent a proper Valentine's yet, this makes the perfect gift for your partner, your best friend, or even just yourself. Already sent one? Well, you know what we think: time means nothing when you're sharing some love.
Return of the Ship-Watchers: Remember when the RobinBoob Twitter account used to post every ship purchase, uniting us in celebration of each other's excellent taste, or (for some), in the pleasure of inflicting our questionable palate upon others? Unfortunately, having fallen to "imperscrutable business acumen", that tradition was lost...until now: starting today, Ship-watching is back on all our store socials (tumblr,mastodon, and bluesky)except Twitter. Subscribe, spectate, and judge celebrate accordingly—and obviously, buy some ships to add to the feed.
P.S. to honor this relaunch, we'll be reposting one ship from our archive every 6 hours (in chronological order) until we're all caught up. If you see yours, make sure to boost it with your very own certificate!
