Profile merger gripe from creator perspective
I said as much to our assigned community manager (I have been one myself and I know it's a thankless job but...):
"Having been making content in one way or another for decades now, this is not the first time a useful service has been forced into an unasked for social media format emulating its competing services (Substack) and it won't be the last. I hope it goes well overall. As the marketplace goes, Patreon is where we make the highest cut of subscriber income...
"I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm just increasingly exhausted by the expectation that every month there is some new expectation to address an unending need to feed the insatiable content beast more and more just to be able to the thing we are primarily interested in (make a show / process subscriber fees for said show)."
Anyway, off to come up with some good Quips (ugh) in hopes of MORE ENGAGEMENT.

Donna Martin Graduates
Just covered The Safe Harbor (S3E11) for The OC, Again and I love, love, love that it is a series of open nods to the Donna Martin Graduates episode of Beverly Hills 90210 (that episode aired 33 years ago last week, by the way).
