if you told me in 2021 that I'd be emotionally invested in the story of a man buying a grocery store lobster with the intention to eat it only to then decide on a whim to keep it as a pet because he felt bad about how sad and weak it looked in the tank, which then turned into a 3-ish year long series of updates about his new enclosures and molting progress and his vibrant personality (for a lobster), with a health scare involving a dropped claw, ending on this very day with his sudden death during a molt, I would say
yes, that sounds exactly like something I'd become invested in and I'm now devastated thank you goodbye
#leon the lobster#srsly I found Brady at total random three years ago when he first posted about leon#and I've been subbed ever since#I love his videos but the leon videos were my favorite#lobsters are some of my favorite animals and it was so refreshing to follow his videos#the concept of a genuine human being actually caring for an animal and not just chasing virality#“wholesome” gets thrown around a lot but this was genuinely wholesome#it went from an experiment on a whim to becoming his genuine loved pet like#(tho tbh idk how much I buy him saying it was an experiment all along bc the guy has a genuine love for animals and it shows)#regardless of the intent it was a really lovely series of videos#and I am so sad that leon is gone 😔#rip leon.......#text post
