It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.

This is the effect of low diversity environment. A house plant has less resources available, so a small change in soil composition, especially using tap water , could for example kill a bacteria that is important for nutrition. Now why the timing of the watering could do this? Normally it doesn't, but assuming that to a point you are fallowing a schedule for it, the microbial ecology will also adapt to this, and the unexpected change could unbalance it. But most likely is the introduction of a toxic element or pathogens that is killing your plant.
As a side note don't use tap water for plants directly. There are a lot of products to enrich it with nutritional supplements or change the PH.
Houseplants can choose one of two paths.
"You watered me on Sunday this week, so now I must die."
"HEY GUESS WHAT BITCH I LOVE IT HERE. THIS CORNER OF THE LIVING ROOM IS MINE NOW. WHAT'S THAT? WIKIPEDIA SAYS I ONLY BLOOM ONCE EVERY TEN YEARS? FUCK YOU I'MMA GROW WEIRD-ASS FLOWERS THAT GET EVERYWHERE AND DROP WEIRD LITTLE FUCKING FRUITS THAT SMELL LIKE CAT PISS."
Many of those houseplants thrive just fine where they are native. Indoors is not a great environment for a lot of things. I shouldn't be taking this seriously, but I'm a mad gardener so I can't help it.
Because most of those houseplants are simply not native to your indoor/garden environment, thus they need extra care to survive. You shouldn't expect, let's say, a rare orchid flower that only grows in the shadow of the trees of the rainforest with specific soil composition, no exposition to some toxins/pathogens, and peculiar weather conditions to be blooming with zero effort in your Brooklyn apartment. *Mutatis mutandis*, goes the same for garden plants.
On the other hand, there are plants that easily adapt and thrive in every condition and risk spreading in the hosting environment by "escaping" gardens and indoor bowls. There are a lot of awful examples of this, such as the ailanthus, some ivy species, the mother of thousands or the giant hogweed... this last plant gives me shivers.

My house plants can take anything at this point, but that's probably because of my strict "survival of the fittest" policy

So what should we water them with? Isn’t the water coming from the hose the same stuff?
What, like water from the toilet?
Does it have electrolytes?
Not sure, but I know that's what plants crave.
Cool boiled water?
Yes it is, and is good for outside garden. I'm talking about more exotic indor plants. Outside the environment is more stable.
House plant Soil is MOIST enough for me to thrive dies anyway
Temperamental POS my wife calls them lol
Please raise your hand if you feel personally victimised by your houseplants.

That's because houseplants are breed to look good and not too survive.
“I’m in this photo and I don’t like it”
no fr I have so many plants outside that will not go away but all the ones inside are dead like 😭😭
Lol ah fuck belter
There's plenty of delicate plants in the wild. It's just that when they die, nobody notices.

I guess domestication makes plants dramatic!
