thanks @moonunit ! I'm sure I'll never get all my blogs to under 20 mins - personal quick ones definitely, but certain topics do take a lot of time and effort - those mining posts are amazing and anyone can tell you put a ton of time into them.
I've written stuff with a lot of research involved where I spend days checking sources out.. those ones, I think, will always be slaved over - they should be! there's a certain amount of respect that goes into big topics but it's nice to write some fluff here and there :) so happy you could relate to the struggle!
