Yeah there was so much that took a toll, I literally can't imagine myself in her shoes or any content creators, trying to constantly have new things coming out like a machine just to get by. Really wish this wasn't the reality she chose to do it.

A key difference in the content she made versus others is she took a hobby and turned it into her source of income, except that the growth and subsequent survival of her hobby requires it to generate more income and without it there isn't enough money to pay all the bills. Compare that to say, the multitudes of gaming streams on Twitch where the income doesn't necessarily need to keep going up for that streamer to keep doing what they're doing, because that doesn't expand in a way where the bills expand along with it, it just needs to reach a comfortable number and remain steady. This instance is more like the worst way "number must go up" could play out, because if it doesn't you now lack funds for the extra animals you've added to your care and they likely came into your care in the first place because nowhere else was doing it.

Today, July 22, Ozzy Osbourne was reported to have died. For real, this time. He passed while surrounded by family. Ozzy Osbourne is a name that shouldn't require introduction, but he was a pioneer of heavy metal with the band Black Sabbath, and has many enduring classic songs. He was also known for his larger than life antics that made him all the more legendary, becoming "The Prince of Darkness". I don't think it needs to be said that he will be missed.

Holy fuck I just saw this after waking up from a nap because I'm not well right now; what a thing to wake up to. It oddly doesn't surprise me much though when thinking of how he was during that last live performance of his. I got the impression he was doing that thing people in their last moments do where they get this second wind and do things they weren't capable of due to age beforehand.

R.I.P.
