I’ve just finished watching Netflix’s ‘Queer Eye’…

queereyebeg

Should I write about it? I will if I get 10 new Patreon patrons [patreon.com/maryannjohanson] by Saturday morning-ish. (And no sneaky making a pledge and then cancelling it!)

Or, if you don’t want to make a commitment, you could encourage me with a one-time (or recurring!) donation via Paypal: paypal.me/MaryAnnJohanson.

I’ll post my totally fab reax — which I’m sure Jonathan would be instantly obsessed with! — this weekend if you all tell me you want it.

Thanks!

UPDATE 08.27.18

Did I get 10 new Patreon patrons? I did not. I did get a few donations via PayPal. Not 10. But then I felt bad about disappointing those who did step up, so I wrote a long piece on Queer Eye. I may not have thought this will-write-for-food thing through…

share and enjoy

Well this is as good an excuse as any to switch my ancient Paypal subscription over to a shiny new Patreon pledge. Since that also sort of feels like cheating for these purposes, I went ahead and bumped up the pledge amount as well. The new Queer Eye is delightful and it’d be great to hear your thoughts on it.

I made a donation in spite of the word “reax.” If that’s a thing now, somebody please make it stop.

Short for “reaction.”

C’mon, folks. Language evolves. Embrace evolution. :-)

And here I always thought evolution was just a theory. ;-)

If you don’t like a word like that, then you definitely won’t like *Queer Eye.*

(How did you make a donation? I don’t see it.)

This is the 21st century. I have a fake name and a PayPal account.
