Help Locked out of 10 years Gmail account

Due to the recent LastPass debacle, I decided to cycle my Gmail passwords. Boy that was a mistake!! Gmail has decided that I can’t log in with “just” my password. The new password is correct. It then asks me for my old password, which I put in correctly. Then it tells me I can’t log in anyway. 🙁 Occasionally it will give me a QR code to scan. But I can’t scan it on my phone, since my phone is logged out. I can’t log in to my recovery account, because (like a fool) I changed the passwords simultaneously. Now both are locked. Somebody help! My account name is edgeofepsilon@gmail.com (the recovery email should match my HN username). I’m locked out of a decade+ of correspondence, recovery, and historical data.
