I’m Turning My Worst Reviews into Wearable Pins!

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time! I’m making pins featuring mean things people have said about me.

Since I’ve been a well known person on the internet for an eternity – literally since Myspace –a lot of people have said mean things about me on the internet. So I figure, let’s put them on pins!

These all come reviews of the BAS FB page.

I mean, how great are these pins?

I also am including one pin that’s actually quite nice, AND a pin with the logo Jeremy Fish made for BAS. So this collection is 5 pins.

The thing is, we’re not selling this 5 pin collection, at least not in the traditional sense.

Here’s how it works:

• This limited edition pin collection is only available for 3 weeks.

• To get this pin collection, you must be a member of the Broke-Ass Stuart Patreon at $15 or higher

• This is a way to reward the people who believe in what we’re doing and want to help us keep doing it.

• I know $15 a month might be a bit expensive for some folks, so if you really want these pins but can’t afford the $15 a month, just join at the $15 tier for now and then move to a lower tier once you receive the pins. 

• Broke-Ass Stuart costs over $10k a month to run, so you becoming a patron helps us keep up what we’ve been doing for the past 20 years.

• While we may sell some of these pins in the future, the only way you’ll be able to get this full collection is right now during this three week special offer.

Besides getting some really awesome pins, you’ll be helping keep independent journalism alive in the Bay Area and Beyond.

SO JOIN THE BROKE-ASS STUART PATREON RIGHT HERE TO GET YOUR Pin Collection! 

Note: These won’t ship until the 3 week promotion is up and we know exactly how many to print up.
