The one thing I'm glad, and I don't know if this is a change due to modship or overall SA culture, is that we finally cut the gently caress down on the ironic self-hatred around here. Like calling what we do a "pseudo-hobby" and preening ourselves over how we are about quality but we are also absurdly self-aware about what a waste of time this is. Like thank gently caress that's gone.

LPs are goddamn hard. You need to be a writer, a competent gamer, a video editor an entertainer and potentially a skilled commentator all at once. It requires legitimate and serious work. I dunno why we spent years mocking ourselves for putting this work into LPs despite them being incredibly celebrated and fondly remembered. Sure you might not be running up a Patreon number with these skills, but does it make them any less meaningful or the experiences we produce any less enjoyable and memorable? Of course not, it's partly why we still keep doing this.
