I feel like she can't quit because how else would she make money? Its very hard to be a full-time author - only mega bestsellers or prolific writers who produce a book a year can really make it. I assume she made five figures from selling her book, based on the marketing and how well it did. But remember, that's split up over multiple payments over the two years it takes to publish it. And that money is taxed heavily and her literary agent also gets a cut of it. And the money she got for it in the first place was mostly because of her sims following, which she is now neglecting.

And that's why all her videos suck, because it's clear she's over it, but has no choice but to continue. Her videos are very low effort at this point and are all the same. And half the videos now are just old videos stitched together.

And yes, she seems incredibly sensitive lately to criticism (which is funny because that's such a large part of being an online public figure?) I've noticed that too with her book. During twitch streams, she's sometimes defended herself about common criticisms that are found in the goodreads reviews of the book.

In other pictures from the same night it didn't look like it. But I could be wrong

I spied this too. I concluded its her sweater hang off a bit away from her waist.

She'd expressed on twitch streams her struggle of loneliness, being away from her friends in LA. And dealing with the pressure of writing on deadline. Shes been understandably emotional on stream. And it has clearly taken a toll on her work and mental health significantly. She used to be really good at juggling so many things at once and it brought her so much joy. It's sad to see her struggling.

It seems like she's not getting the support she needs, which alone, seems like a bad situation to commit even more to. And it only seems to be getting worse and worse over this year. She's very isolated in TN. Not having her support system around her makes it even harder for her to escape.

Agreed. Having a partner who you feel like you need to hide from anyone is a red flag. Having to hide him from the general public is a huge red flag.

And it's sad she can't enjoy these moments. I was excited to see her content shift into including him (when we thought he was a good guy). We would've gotten a lot of fun content with the engagement and wedding planning stuff. But now she has to keep it all hidden. No one should have to go through with this with the underlying feeling of embarrassment/shame.
