UPDATE: The 2018 Stay Angry Subscriber Drive has concluded. Thank you for your support.
Hey, everybody! Thank you in advance for reading this.
I'm Phil Yu, founder and editor of Angry Asian Man. As of this month, I have been running this website for 17 years. Sometimes I look back and wonder how the heck I got here. It continues to be a wild journey, full of ups and downs, but I still consider it an honor and privilege to be able to do this for a living. I run this blog almost entirely by myself, doing the best I can with the help of an intrepid Angry Asian Intern and the support of my extended Angry community. And, of course, the generous support of readers like you.
So... it's that time of year again, where I ask for your help. It's the 2018 Stay Angry Subscriber Drive!
Each month, I spend hundreds of hours putting in the research, writing and administration behind running Angry Asian Man, as well as recording, producing and editing They Call Us Bruce, the podcast I co-host with Jeff Yang. I love it, but it does come with a significant set of costs to sustain -- in time, money and energy. In addition, there are those pesky everyday issues of paying rent, gas, groceries, insurance, etc. Grown-up stuff.
Would you consider joining with me to help keep Angry Asian Man going? If you're a regular reader, if this blog is a daily destination for you, and/or if you've found this content valuable, would you consider pitching in with a contribution? Your generous support will help pay the bills, keep the work going, but most importantly, affirm through your partnership that this work is important and worthwhile.
In appreciation for your support, you'll receive this year's special Subscriber Drive "Stay Angry" t-shirt featuring an exclusive design by award-winning artist and graphic novelist Ethan Young (Nanjing: The Burning City, The Battles of Bridget Lee, Life Between Panels).
Each limited edition shirt is a Bella+Canvas dark grey heather triblend unisex short sleeve tee, made from polyester combed and ringspun cotton/rayon. It's super-soft and looks pretty darn awesome.
This shirt is not for sale, not available anywhere else, and will only be given out as a thank you gift to supporters who subscribe at the sustaining $5/month level and above, or give a one-time contribution of $50 or more, exclusively during the 2018 Angry Asian Subscriber Drive. If you've given in the past, or if you're a current subscriber at a lower level, this is a great opportunity to level up and increase your giving.
(If you're already a current ongoing subscriber, you'll receive a shirt. You should've received an email about it.)
