Given the time scale... She must have started selling the T-shirts before Major found her tumblr.
I just assumed somebody else cribbed the photo from her Tumblr (or whatever) and made the t-shirts. I suppose it's possible she could've done it, but we don't know that for sure, and it's not as if people on the Internet have a lot of respect for permissions or rights when it comes to copying images and memes. Once she put it out there publicly, the suspect pool swelled into the millions.
Those had to have been the most awkward visions ever.
I wonder who let Harley out of the freezer?

I was uneasy with Ravi's teasing of Liv about the sex visions. He's her boss, so that arguably constitutes sexual harassment. I'm sure that's not what he intended, but it was an inappropriate thing to joke about, given how uncomfortable Liv was with it.
We saw that, didn't we? It was his fellow anti-zombie group members, the big guy who was the Max Rager gate guard and the one played by Peter Kelamis. (According to IMDb, the character names are Billy Cook and Mr. Huntsman) They found Harley there, assumed he was dead, and took him out and put him back on the couch for some reason, then just sat there and watched TV for some reason while he thawed out.
Speaking of guest stars I recognize from Syfy shows, the second guy Liv picked up in the bar was Neil Grayston, Fargo from Eureka. Once I recognized him, I expected his role to be bigger. And I only just found out from IMDb that Anjali Jay, who plays the Fillmore-Graves member Carey Gold (whom Clive was surprised to discover was that girl's mother), is an actress I know from the 2006 BBC Robin Hood and from a recurring role on Continuum. Not sure why I didn't recognize her -- maybe it was the hairstyle.
So... They've blown up the house that's been one of their main sets for three seasons. I wonder, are they going to replace those sets altogether, or will they do the TV cheat where it turns out the damage is mainly cosmetic and it can be restored with a little remodeling?
Considering how he and Liv are such good friends, Ravi probably didn't think the teasing was inappropriate.
I'm drawing a blank. Where was the party?
I'm drawing a blank. Where was the party?
That's for her to decide, not him. And she was clearly uncomfortable with the situation.
The party that got blown up? In Major and Ravi's house, which I think was originally Liv's residence in the first season.
Meanwhile, how did Harley know to go there?
Woah. I'm really stupid. I thought it was at a bar.
Someone probably tipped him off.
Someone probably tipped him off.
Who? Only Liv, Clive, Ravi, and their friends knew that he was a) a zombie and b) in the bunker, and none of them knew that Billy and Huntsman had freed him from the freezer. So he would've needed to have contact with someone after he revived and left the bunker, and I don't know how that would've happened.
I guess we'll find out next week. The finale. Sad it's nearly over. Most likely another year of waiting.
Oops, I was wrong. I thought the house that blew up last week was Major and Ravi's house, but it wasn't.
Well. That was a hell of a game-changer.
EDIT: Here's a spoilery interview with Rob Thomas about the finale and what comes next:

It answers where Liv's job goes from here, and it's not what I thought.
I've been expecting all season that they were building up to "D-Day" and the revelation of zombies, but the way it happened was remarkably different from what I imagined. And even suspecting it was coming didn't make it any less startling to see it happen. This is enormous. It's rare for a show like this to really embrace its concept all-out and let it change the world, rather than keeping it hidden for the sake of maintaining the pretense of happening in our world. The 4400 did something similar, with its time-travel/superpowers plot having a bigger and broader effect on the city and the world as a whole with each passing season, but in that case, the phenomenon was publicly known from the start. (That show was also set in Seattle, interestingly.) I can't think offhand of any show where the fantasy element was secret for the first few seasons and then went public midway through the series, in a permanent way without being undone right after (although Threshold would've gone there if it had lasted longer, I believe).
But this change is bound to be huge. The show's going to be massively different from now on. Chase said something about a special zombie unit of the police that will specialize in zombie-related crimes -- I assume Liv will end up as a key member of that task force. Although if there are other zombie cops able to solve murders by brain-eating, Liv's skill set becomes less special, so maybe they'll downplay the crimesolving element altogether? That seems unlikely. Whatever the case, Liv and her friends occupy a very different world now, and nothing will be the same. I'm intrigued to see where it goes from here.
Also in the category of the impressively unexpected: For three seasons, Johnny Frost has been a running joke, and now he ends up being the one who delivers that powerful, world-changing speech, and proves capable of rising to the occasion. That's some really cool plotting.

This finale wasn't as good as the previous but the last minute made my heart drop. I hope the cure works instead of the alternative, which I don't want to even think about.
It's a vaccine, rather than a cure. Those aren't quite the same thing. Something that prevents a healthy person from getting a disease won't necessarily be able to cure someone who already has it. After all, if it were a viable cure, then the whole series would be over.
Oh. I must have gotten confused. So if the vaccine doesn't work then he's just a zombie, no potential death like with the cure?
Because I cannot handle Ravi dying! He's the humor, and backbone to the whole show, being that he was Liv's first confidant.

I would assume so. Although the Thomas interview suggests there might be side effects even if it does work.
I just skimmed the interview, should have done that a bit sooner. Ravi's safe. Good. Potential meltdown averted. 
They could have waited longer than a minute and a half to let the vaccine take root.
Then there wouldn't be a cliffhanger. Honestly that scene was the only good thing about the episode. Made it feel like a finale.
I'm a bit confused now, how did freezer dude know to go there in the first place? There was nothing in the info dump between Graves and Ms Mutineer that what he did was part of her machinations... So are we to assume that after he was released from the freezer by his 2 friends, he left the bunker, made a bomb, and simply found tne house where Major's send off party was happening? Feels like I'm missing something.
