The word "entertainment" is key. Ivy, like any consumer, uses media to disconnect. In interviews and social media posts (archived via Reddit and X threads), she has discussed using video games, narrative films, and even ASMR content to manage anxiety and the pressures of public life. When she expresses thankfulness for entertainment, she acknowledges that content—whether made by her or others—serves a therapeutic function. It is the digital equivalent of a campfire story: a distraction from the existential dread of modern life.

Historically, adult performers were at the mercy of a handful of production companies and DVD distributors. The rise of clip sites and subscription platforms created a safety net. Ivy has witnessed the collapse of major studio models and the rise of creator-led economies. Her gratitude likely stems from no longer being a replaceable cog but a brand manager. However, this gratitude is tempered: platforms like Patreon and PayPal have notoriously de-banked adult creators. Thus, being "thankful" for media content also means appreciating the platforms that do allow adult work, such as many of the blockchain-based or adult-specific services emerging in the mid-2020s.
