OBS closes at random, no obvious causes in logs.

Attached below are all of my logs from tonight's stream. When analyzed, they present no obvious cause for a crash, they just close. The only game I'm streaming is Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- in windowed mode, with Game Capture. There's nothing prompting it to close, I often don't even have the window in the foreground. My scenes are mostly made up of images with text elements that draw from txt files. I change the contents of the txt files with an external program, but the changing of the text isn't causing the crash-- once again, it's at random.

This has been happening for weeks, please help me for my own sanity.

Have you tried uninstalling obs and reinstalling it? Also check your computer memory and CPU usage, update your hard drive, clean up your computer, close some unneeded programs when using obs to record videos. If it still doesn't work, you can try other video recording software such as Bandicam, RecMaster, or Camtasia.

Your log contains no recording or streaming session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link via this troubleshooting tool or whichever support chat you are using.

New logs:
I did about a 3-minute test with Twitch's bandwidth test mode, so I didn't go live.
I tried to replicate a normal setup, but I couldn't get any friends on Discord to try it with me, so I ran a YouTube video while I was in an empty Discord call. I hope this works.

Analyzer says audio buffering is the issue. Now, maybe YouTube was causing this, so I did the second log, joining a random public Discord voice chat. And now I get... nothing.
