It’s extremely etiolated because it’s been stretching for light. I’d personally chop it back and start over and put it in a place that it can get some direct sun during the day

I second all of this!

That is a crassula tarantula. It is very etoliated as other poster mentioned. The leaves should be much closer together, and much darker. And the leaves should be very fuzzy. Your plant is lacking all that because of lack of light.
