I was a little heartbroken to see my favorite local cafe selling these stickers, so I made a list of some Deaf artists selling their art online.

[Image ID: a Be kind sticker with English and ASL except 4 instead of B handshape, S instead of E, V instead of K, S instead of N, and 1 instead of D. Over the sticker are the words "this is why we don't buy art from Amazon" with "part of the reason" inserted between "this is" and "why". The word "Wrong" is above all the incorrect handshapes and "wrong in the same way is pointing to the S handshapes that are meant to represent the E and N.
