Still scrambling to find gifts for your younger loved ones this holiday season? You might want to visit "Ryan's World."

That's the YouTube page of eight-year-old Texan Ryan Kaji, whose videos of toy reviews and other childhood shenanigans earned him a mind-boggling $26 million in 2019, according to Forbes - enough to make him YouTube's top earner for the second year in a row.

Forbes considers the pretax income YouTubers collect through advertising, sponsorships, merchandise sales, and other sources to create its annual list.

Kaji wasn't the only minor to make the cut this year, either. YouTube's third-highest earner is Anastasia Radzinskaya, a five-year-old Russian with cerebral palsy and seven YouTube channels. An additional five of YouTube's top earners aren't kids, but they are gamers who often showcase content popular with youngsters, such as "Minecraft" and "Fortnite."

It's not entirely surprising that YouTube's kid-focused content is some of its most popular - and, therefore, most profitable.

A nationally representative 2018 Pew survey found that an overwhelming 81 percent of parents with kids under the age of 11 let their offspring watch videos on the platform, with 34 percent saying their children visit the site regularly.

There are 33.7 million households in the United States with members under the age of 11, according to United States Census data - so that means a vast number of tiny eyeballs racking up views on videos like Kaji's.

The thriving economy of child-oriented YouTube content has occasionally even provoked bizarre scandals.

And none of this means you should take the success of YouTubers like Kaji as an indication that you, too, could quit your day job and become a multi-millionaire by pumping out kid-friendly video content.

"The vast majority of people who start a YouTube channel, or engage in any career as an influencer, won't make it," internet culture writer Chris Stokel-Walker told BBC News. "96.5 percent of YouTubers don't make enough from advertising revenue alone to break the US poverty line - and with the number of creators on the platform constantly increasing, the competition is only getting tougher."

A technological advancement in a still taken from, again, Black Mirror, used in my research to fuel my points for my essay on Dystopia. This image reflects an attainable invention, one that has already been a topic of conversation when regarding the lifespan of the constant falling numbers of bees and their general utility, one that could be replaced via A.I. and machines, should the population of such pollinators die out eventually. For the conversation to already be discussed, it makes me wonder what other things can be replaced. People too?

A still taken from a show called Brack Mirror, used as research for my essay, this scene challenges the bias system of rating in apps used by popular companies for hiring services, though in this world, rating people rather than services. The fake expression of the character's face depicts the fake-ness of society and the ever-reaching standard of photo-readiness that is often portrayed to us. It is a perfect reflection on the already present perfection standard of the "Influencer" lifestyle.

It was quite funny how, upon typing the word "Dystopia" into Google Images and hitting search to find an image to speak on, the first that showed up was actually one of a street in our current society. The grittiness of the in=mage, accompanied by the grey colouring, the space between each individual creates a sense of division between us as people. The growing use of technology such as the one used in our pockets keeps us from our sociable instincts and further creates this divide between us as a people.

Dystopia is a speculated community or society that is undesirable or frightening. It is often treated as an antonym of utopia, a term that was coined by Sir Thomas More and figures as the title of his best known work, published in 1516, which created a blueprint for an ideal society with minimal crime, violence and poverty. The relationship between utopia and dystopia is in actuality not one simple opposition, as many utopian elements and components are found in dystopias as well, and vice versa.
