the dropout(of context) guy

Hiiiiii friends! so after literal weeks of thinking about it, I've decided that I won't be making a Dan and Phil year in review video for 2025. As I said when I made last year's video, the entire thing took me around 80 hours to research, film, and edit. When i made last year's video during winter break, I was in a very strange place mental health wise and also staying home doing nothing most days which was how I was able to dedicate so much time to it. This break, however, I'm in a much better place and also getting out and doing a lot more things and honestly, when I thought about it, I didn't want to sacrifice all of that for the sake of this video. I also know that when I go back to school there is no way in hell I will have the time to make anything, let alone a project of this nature. Honestly, the only thing holding me back from canceling the project for this long is that I knew if I did end up making it it would get a lot of views and rake in a decent amount of money. But that's just not the outlook I want to have on my channel. I make videos that excite me, that I want to make. The fact that I get to monetize them is great but I never want to make it my top priority, especially since I have other sources of income besides YouTube. So yeah, the TLDR is that I'm not making a Dan and Phil year in review for 2025. If it wasn't such a time sensitive project I'd say there could come a day when I'd feel inspired to make it but every day that goes by into the new year it's relevance wanes and uploading a year in review for 2025 in like May or something would just be ridiculous. However, I do have some really exciting Dan and Phil related content coming very soon! I shan't reveal any more details but trust me, it's good, so stay tuned for that. I hope 2026 is treating you all well and I'll see you very soon!

xoxo,
Lee

I recently hit 1000 subscribers which is so crazy and not something i ever thought would happen! i know that's not actually that much in the grand scheme of things but to me it's absolutely huge!!! i've been wondering if i should make some sort of 1000 subscribers special to commemorate this bonkers achievement so let me know if you guys have ideas of what you'd like to see from me!

lee vs having a consistent theme for their channel. what do you mean one day you're posting dropout out of context compilations and the next you're making a 2 hour retrospective on daniel howell and philip lester. (this is not the end of dropout out of context to be clear, i love making those videos and there will be more coming soon)
