    I was just remarking on that last point. A YouTuber I watch who runs a farm amongst other things stabbed herself in the hand on accident and essentially paralyzed it for a period of time. But she was so dead set on not asking even her partner for help on the farm because of some weird sense of pride or something. It was actually really sad to see someone repeat over and over to internet strangers that she’s not a quitter. Seems to be doing much better but I feel bad for folks who have this type of outlook. Something I’ve seen from a lot of content creators online unfortunately.
