ok break starts now will be back to posting in around a week! follow my socials if u want i am most active on twitter and insta and i am most famous on tiktok they r all ro ramdin
Taking a week off is hardly a break! Please take more time if you need it, or at the very least start back with some content that writes itself and is easier to make. I'd much rather wait longer between videos instead of having you risk burning out completely and not wanting to do UA-cam at all anymore.
The way Ro’s videos simultaneously comfort me and tuck me into bed at night giving me a little kissy on my forehead but also slap me across the face and call me a sad little idiot is astounding
every time I watch a Rose video she makes a remark that is so harrowingly real that it throws my mind into a void space both full of thought and completely empty and then in the distance I hear her say some insanely accurate comparison that is so powerful that it thrusts me back into the real world. I like it a lot!
I find myself rewinding her videos so often because she’ll say something so profound I need to hear it more that once to really process such bold levels of honesty that I need reflection within myself… putting out videos like that week after week has got to be emotionally exhausting. Glad she’s recognizing the need for a break and taking it.
Reminder that Ron is no more correct than Ro. It can be very easy to become convinced the cynic in your head is the truthful one because of their ability to cut down any and all arguments you make. But they can do that because they’re inability to feel positivity confines the world they live in to their own observations. Ro has hope, which Ron sees as pathetic and self-aggrandizing. Ron’s wrong about hope. Am I projecting my own psyche onto an internet stranger who I know nothing about? Yes. Do I love that stranger for their ability to make me see myself in their art? Absolutely.
can we PLEASE talk about how ro has been adding these philosophical/cinematic shots in her most recent videos?? like??????? my heart is soaring, these are the kinds of videos i love to see. i love how much effort you put into these, they're your heart and soul, blood sweat and tears. and it really shows. love your videos, your humor, and the direction you're going.
There's so much to them, I love them too and I feel like I leave comments almost every time saying so 😂 she's really talented at self shooting, as someone who's tried it it's really impressive how beautiful her shorts are
i’m obsessed with those shots of ro and ron later in the video!!! and all of the outdoor shots of course. my other favorite shots were from the chick tracts video with all of the church shots it was gorgeous
Not to take away from your anti-child rhetoric, but babies having crazy grip strength is most likely a carryover from when we were apes and had to hang on to our mother to not die. One of the reflex tests they do for newborns is a grip test
truly one of the most entertaining and authentic content creators around. calling her a “commentator” seems unfitting because she brings so much to the table with her writing, comedy, editing, and music skills. she’s an a r t i s t. ugh. love this human.
stanning ro ramdin isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle, a reason to breathe, an escape from this cruel world filled with thieves. it’s art, the first gift you open on xmas, a hug from a loved one, everything you’ve ever wanted, everything you need, the universe itself.
this is a wonderful video i really saw myself in, and it had a lot of insightful things to say for me to ponder and grow on but the best line by far was "mr. beast views for mr. bean prices"
I don't know how literal the "split" was but as someone who struggles with dissociation this was just. Way too relatable. The part about catering to niches, and the overall arching message that that is what lets you survive on this platform? Valid. Everytime I see an ad or get 2 unskippable ads in a row and take that time to contemplate the platform, it's gradual shift to this sort of... nightmare currency of our time and energy. It's like being doused with water, and your clothes are still soaked from last time but now you're chilled to the bone all over again and it eats at you in a special way. I don't care if you're part of the system. As is commonly said, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. I'm nonbinary, and I'm simply appreciative of a trans voice, and your perspective on things, because that is truly special. Many voices will echo your sentiment but you put the message out there, and you have united them, if only a small portion of the whole. Take care Ro, and thank you.
you're videos are genuinely the most relatable things in the world - signed a depressed, adhd ridden, slowly mentally deteriorating, trans woman sitting alone surrounded by undone laundry
I'm in a manic episode rn scrubbing all my walls and just listening Ro talking about the complexities of human life interacting with algorithms and capitalist marketing schemes and it's all a very cozy vibe
This video is really well done and entertaining, and I can see why you’re overwhelmed/exhausted. Shorter videos with less content is still loved and appreciated by your viewers too! We don’t want you overworking yourself either
I normally don’t leave comments because I get anxious about being judged for the stupid things I say BUT it should be said that your content falls in a fascinating niche of being clever and quick witted in the humor but also being really profound? Like I feel like I’m getting a synthesis of multiple genres of content every time, and like this is a pinnacle of those genres. My point being, you are doing something extremely worthwhile here and I look forward to every upload.
I am very late, but your comment is intelligent and insightful and it would be a waste if your (unfounded) fear of ridicule stopped you taking part any more. The anxiety is real and sometimes it's less harmful to remain quiet (a choice which should be honoured)- but know that you don't sound foolish at all. Take care.
i have never watched another commentary so terrifyingly in line with my exact thought processes. i've seen many of the other life hack commentary videos, but this is the only one that i truly _felt._
Honestly, this honesty and self-reflection is the type of content that *I* want to make some day, for what it's worth. Videos like this are helpful to people who are feeling the same thing, and make me feel like it's not the end of the world if I actually talk about the fact that I have emotions sometimes lol
the spiderman 3 joke landed so perfectly for me. you have no idea how many times I’ve seen that movie and how that joke clicked so fast and made me laugh way harder than it should have
Holy shit, Ro, every time you have one of your internal monologues it's like I'm being punched in the gut in a good way. This was an incredible video and I hope you have a wonderful week off.
Honestly, while I think you always have an interesting and insightful take, most of the reason why your videos are special is because of your personality and your humor. I don’t care if you’re padding out the runtime, because what I’m watching for isn’t just the facts or opinions. We watch because we like you and your way of *delivering* those facts and opinions. If I just want the cold, hard facts, I can do my own research into something. So please know that you don’t need to be making ground breaking, entirely unique points for your videos to be worthwhile. Even if you were just regurgitating info from scholarly sources in an entertaining and accessible way, that would still be worth watching and would be helping people understand or think about complex topics that they may not have thought about before. And even when I already agreed and knew about something you covered, I still enjoy the hell outta your videos. What makes your videos special is *you.*
I genuinely dont think ive ever seen a useful, practical life hack that wasn't something completely obvious. anyway, thanks for the video, Ro, I love your content! (edit) it seems I have been proven wrong! comment more life hacks pls, theyre cool!
The only one I've ever used was to put your belt loops around the button on your jeans so they'll fit tighter. I use it for my work pants because they're way too loose for me (and I don't have a belt).
i saw one about running a jar under hot water to open it (which seems obvious but it's life changing lmao). also the ones for opening bottles without bottle openers. the rest are just more difficult than the original task or for situations that don't exist
I really fucking love the argument between Rose and Ron. The juxtaposition of blue light for the Masc person and the red/pink light for the fem person and then the subsequent turning off of those exclisivities to make way for a new possibly, the combination of the two, with the purple lights. Cinematography at it's finest babes and barbs
as someone who got diagnosed/medicated for ADHD during the pandemic (it's already been almost a year since then, good gravy) i want to express my empathy. getting diagnosed, given the fact We Live In A Society (that often only cares about whether or not your symptoms impair your ability to be productive within capitalism) can be labyrinthine and frustrating as hell, but getting meds and the validation/explaination that there's... a reason for why I'm like this was a major help for me, personally. thank you for making these videos, i hope you enjoy your break -- guiltlessly, if possible! smoochies, o beloved internet personality Ro Rurnham /lh
babe, genuinely my favorite part of this video is the “filler” joke entertainment. You’re INTENSELY funny and I actually laugh at your videos, not just a huff of breath out of my nose. I really see you having a genuine and successful career in comedy, not just commentary.
“nothings dying unless it gets shot by that fucking dog” LMFAOO honestly though, i look forward to all of these videos and i anticipate the moment where everything just breaks. i absolutely love it cause i constantly have conversations/arguments with myself in my own head. this is the type of entertainment i’ve been dying to take in, as a creator/artist i try to do it within music, but i absolutely love seeing it done so fucking well in a format like this. see u after ur break :)
The longer I live, the more I think that it's almost impossible to be "right", even if you go 5 levels of introspection and reflection deep. I get that feeling from this video. I reckon we gotta stop thinking we are supposed to min-max life, just do "things" and be nice to people when you can.
a lot of commentary videos are easy to just listen to in the background and not really 'watch', but your videos are always so visually appealing in terms of editing and lighting and camerawork that they hold the viewers entire attention. its consistantly interesting to hear what you have to say regardless of the topic
17:34 btw, that statistic is for Odessa, Texas. Odesa, Ukraine (the place where troom troom is broadcasting from) is actually around 95% white which makes the situation even worse.
The editing and the writing of this one was brutal and beautiful. So impressed with how you shot and edited the argument toward the end. The audio was perfectly timed to feel natural. The lighting in your wider shots is always so cool, and I love the music you use throughout your videos! Take the time you need to coalesce. Your content is killer, and I imagine it must be exhausting to be so brilliant and clever all the damn time. I really enjoy hearing your perspective and what you have to say. ♥
I forgot to read the patch notes! I had no clue my gender has been phased out. Thank you for keeping us up to date Rose! LMAO! With how talented you are at filming, producing, songwriting and writing in general, I have no doubt in my mind that your channel will either be ultra successful or you will own your own series on Netflix one day. I have seen many, many different videos and there isn't a single creator like you on the platform.
I aspire to be this witty. I'm getting funnier just listening to Ro. Hey if she wants to become a scammy UA-cam influencer she should sell a course on "how to become quippy for quality content creation in 10 days or less"
11:47--12:27 that joke about lifehacking the love for an significant other went from stupid to profound back to stupid, all encased in an ominous vibe. I'm impressed :)
Wow, the ACTUAL commentary in this video is so, so, so good. Love that you point out how weird it is that we continue to "feign surprise" at these videos as you put it, when at this point it's painfully obvious exactly why they exist and exactly why they're never going away. So well done, absolutely blown away at the quality of your writing
Each new video Ro posts definetly convinces me more she's my new favourite youtuber I'm not even joking, these are just so 🤌🤌🤌🤌 although the frequency in which she pumps these out is worrisome
this video was basically an art piece ro. holy fuck i enjoyed every fucking second, thank you for putting this out. take as many breaks as you need! ill beat the fuck out of anyone who complains xoxo take care
I do just wanna say, Ro, the source list IS very helpful! The audience may be a bit small for them, but as a new generation of scholars enter college and start writing about the effect video essayists and commentators have on the popular conservation, being able to look at the sources for these videos will be a great help! I know I've run into the problem a few times already!
it’s hard to trust a lot of videos you see. i definitely agree and when i check a video for sources and actually find them for once, it seriously does make me light up a bit.
i loved the contrast between the two sides, how they're presented as the right and wrong sides, but then "ron" goes first and turns the video structure around. i can't really word it but their conflict is really well executed. there's probably some sort of symbolism there with how the red and blue lamps are dimmer when separated but the lights come on brighter and purple when they settle. there's a lot of food for thought.
This inner back and forth is beautifully chaotic, I cant explain how validating this felt for me. thank you for being vulnerable with the world, i appreciate the fuck out of it
Ro baby please don’t burn yourself out we need you to stick around! Don’t get my wrong I love the mounds of content but you’re spoiling us unnecessarily at the cost of your own well-being darling x
I love how you show yourself not only arguing with yourself, but you're arguing with yourself who's in the space and affecting the space. This is how I picture my anxiety, so it's neat to see it shown in a video.
As someone with DID, the ro/ron interactions were very relatable 😅 Anyway, this video was great! Take your rest as you need it, we can’t live in the grind 24/7
as someone who has been making videos since the first year of youtube's existence, yet have never reached even ro's level of success, this video hits hard.
got a 3 minute long benshapiro transphobia doc ad at the start of this video and just straight up thought it was part of the video and you were going to make fun of his pleading a begging, it was not rip me great video though i did really enjoy your insight on life hacks
The unmediated ADHD joke hits me different, literally put off my taxes for two fucking years my roommate gave me one Ritalin and did them I’ve made no life progress since
this is the best video ive ever seen, ro you are so hilarious. the living embodiment of, as gaga said "talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopper, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it"
commentator. actress. cinematographer. you're so many things at once and your videos are some of the most unique ive seen! i love them and i love your writing and delivery. take it one step at a time, you're doing amazing! : )
not 2 b parasocial on main but I relate a lot to the parts of urself/the thought processes you've included in ur videos thus far. ur probably the closest in age to me out of all the people i follow on here, which is wild going from being small and content creators/artists being millenials and then at the very least, like, the same age as my older siblings and now its like no this person took geometry with you. not actually! but thats the vibe this video especially has given me a lot to think about... i was thinking the other day, like, "nobody is gonna care about the stuff i make bc it isnt special, unlike someone like ro ramdin who obviously is making stuff that is really special" but then in this there is the kind of theme of like, struggling between mass-appeal and i guess artistic intent? or just the desire to make something that is "good enough" even when what you want to do is different from what is necessary to get clicks or whatever and its like. yeah i feel that srry i type like a teenager written by an adult from a late 2000's/early 2010's TV show im just like this
Damn girl, look at you go!! I feel like I discovered you yesterday and you had a very low number of subs and here you are getting thousands of views in the first hour!
This shit just kinda summed up the plural experience. I don't know if that was the intent, or conscious, but... Man, those hard conversations with your other selves suck. This was a banger. Take care of yourself.
i rarely comment on videos tbh, but i just want you to know that i hate you so much because this video is so good and is extremely well written that i have shat my pants multiple times for the whole 37 minutes of this video. i do hope you get a proper rest during your break! ❤️
I am in love with the symbolism of the colors in your videos. In this one in particular, your use of Red & Blue to differentiate your different sides and the way they come together at the end with the beautiful color purple.
This was really well done and kinda made me sad that you talk to yourself like that. You're very creative and intelligent and I can see that the way your brain works can overwhelm you. Take as much time as you need on a break, we all deserve rest but especially you after making this fantastic video.♥️
no bc deadass ur THE best commentary youtuber in my opinion. like my favorite. u were built for youtube and/or comedy like ur delivery is. unmatched. i literally love u
Why have I never noticed was a dazzling smile Ro has? Like if I didn't know her and saw her across the street and she gave me that smile, I think I'd blush and be unable to stop thinking happy thoughts about this all day, feeling better about my whole existence because of it. It's just really radiant and good!
Ro, your videos are genius, GENIUS!Love them so much. Btw, as a Ritalin user, yes, yes it helps. Really. Get on it. It clears the fog and switches off like 9 of the 10 tv's that are on in my brain at any given time.
rose i was expecting silly funny jokes and skits from this vid and as always you delivered so much more :'o your inner conflicts spoke to me so truly madly deeply... ever since graduating i keep chickening out on creative endeavours for fear of having to put monetary value on my work - especially in the youtube landscape (and yknow.. feeling hypocritical despite this being the only way to survive...) tc doll
I was cracking up like crazy at the rapid-fire jokes, I've gotta say. Your wit and humor is exquisitely sharp. Hope you're still continuing to take care of yourself (and take those breaks) when you need it...!
Omg, this is so cathartic. Art x Content is going to be the fight we have to fight during this early years of internet and globalism. Thank you for trauma dumping. Also, binging all your content. Thank you.
Ro IK i'm a complete stranger that doesn't know you but hearing your discussion with yourself was really impactful. You're a great performer, even if you're just saying things you genuinely think. The presentation was incredible, it in a way made me uncomfortable that you were being so harsh on yourself. IDK what you're going through but please be kinder to yourself, give yourself some credit. The stuff you do is fantastic but it's not all that's important about you. Also I DO appreciate that you cite your sources. A lot of people don't even when asked.
your art is honest you art is the breath of fresh air we need. all of the art you have created has been what we need. i hope it gives you what you need.
not sure if this makes sense but i appreciate how romantically you talk about love and community and caring for others. not romantic like romantic love but more how the way you speak is idyllic. i appreciate how much passion you’re able to put into your words for these sorts of things esp when the topic is bleak (like your chick tracts video).
i just re watched blade runner 2049 last night for the first time since it came out and needless to say your call-out was harrowing. thanks for making me feel alive for the first time in a decade.
as a one piece fan your jokes are incredibly accurate, were not mentally stable at all 😔 this was my first ro video and im already obsessed, the energy, the humor, the writing, youre fucking GREAT and i cant wait to watch more
I think you've just gone up to my fav UA-camr maybe tied with one other. This is the sort of video essay I love, thank you, and I hope your break is restful!
I liked the argument with yourself a lot. I argue with myself like that all of the time, and about similar things - about loving being right, feeling superior to others, trying to figure out whether something I'm doing really is better than others or if I'm just holding everyone else to a higher standard than I hold myself, etc. and honestly it's an important part of my thought process and introspection. I've never seen anyone else really do that self-argument bit in a way that truly reflected my thought process, so that's really cool
I genuinely love all of your videos. I love the comedy, I love the ends, I love the sketches, I love the overall message you give, and I ESPECIALLY love the "giving a dog a gun" jokes. I play these as something I can listen to while I go about my life and they are just so enjoyable :)
ok break starts now will be back to posting in around a week! follow my socials if u want i am most active on twitter and insta and i am most famous on tiktok they r all ro ramdin
You're amazing and so is all the work and effort you put into these, hope you have better days soon!
Take care of yourself and turn off your auto-focus!
Taking a week off is hardly a break! Please take more time if you need it, or at the very least start back with some content that writes itself and is easier to make. I'd much rather wait longer between videos instead of having you risk burning out completely and not wanting to do UA-cam at all anymore.
what a banger to leave on, take care
also I am not a system and I don't have DID but I think if you relate to this video on those grounds that's cool and awesome
The way Ro’s videos simultaneously comfort me and tuck me into bed at night giving me a little kissy on my forehead but also slap me across the face and call me a sad little idiot is astounding
Yes exactly!

Full agree. I’ve become very bored of the usual commentary channels. This art is very refreshing and thoughtful
stanning ro ramdin isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle, a reason to breathe, an escape from this cruel world filled with thieves. it’s art, the first gift you open on xmas, a hug from a loved one, everything you’ve ever wanted, everything you need, the universe itself.

honestly though, i look forward to all of these videos and i anticipate the moment where everything just breaks. i absolutely love it cause i constantly have conversations/arguments with myself in my own head. this is the type of entertainment i’ve been dying to take in, as a creator/artist i try to do it within music, but i absolutely love seeing it done so fucking well in a format like this. see u after ur break :)
The longer I live, the more I think that it's almost impossible to be "right", even if you go 5 levels of introspection and reflection deep. I get that feeling from this video. I reckon we gotta stop thinking we are supposed to min-max life, just do "things" and be nice to people when you can.
Ro’s just- Their rare insults are literally the best, makes me smile all the time ahgsjagsjsh

a lot of commentary videos are easy to just listen to in the background and not really 'watch', but your videos are always so visually appealing in terms of editing and lighting and camerawork that they hold the viewers entire attention.
its consistantly interesting to hear what you have to say regardless of the topic
17:34 btw, that statistic is for Odessa, Texas. Odesa, Ukraine (the place where troom troom is broadcasting from) is actually around 95% white which makes the situation even worse.
Wow! My weekly existential crisis! Thanks Rose!
The editing and the writing of this one was brutal and beautiful. So impressed with how you shot and edited the argument toward the end. The audio was perfectly timed to feel natural. The lighting in your wider shots is always so cool, and I love the music you use throughout your videos!
Take the time you need to coalesce. Your content is killer, and I imagine it must be exhausting to be so brilliant and clever all the damn time. I really enjoy hearing your perspective and what you have to say. ♥
I forgot to read the patch notes! I had no clue my gender has been phased out. Thank you for keeping us up to date Rose! LMAO! With how talented you are at filming, producing, songwriting and writing in general, I have no doubt in my mind that your channel will either be ultra successful or you will own your own series on Netflix one day. I have seen many, many different videos and there isn't a single creator like you on the platform.
The fucking Franz Kafka and dream cockroach joke in the intro absolutely floored me so hard I literally screeched.
I aspire to be this witty. I'm getting funnier just listening to Ro. Hey if she wants to become a scammy UA-cam influencer she should sell a course on "how to become quippy for quality content creation in 10 days or less"
I swear I have no idea what any of your videos are about. I just like the way you smash the words together so elegantly
Love the OG music Ro ❤ thanks for the new content! You're doing great, your wonderful personality and talent shines through the screen :)
she’s so talented fr!
LMAO I was so shocked I thought you had a hidden producer in the corner of your room!
11:47--12:27 that joke about lifehacking the love for an significant other went from stupid to profound back to stupid, all encased in an ominous vibe. I'm impressed :)
I am literally your target demographic, please god keep them coming
Wow, the ACTUAL commentary in this video is so, so, so good. Love that you point out how weird it is that we continue to "feign surprise" at these videos as you put it, when at this point it's painfully obvious exactly why they exist and exactly why they're never going away. So well done, absolutely blown away at the quality of your writing
Each new video Ro posts definetly convinces me more she's my new favourite youtuber
I'm not even joking, these are just so 🤌🤌🤌🤌 although the frequency in which she pumps these out is worrisome
Wonderful, just in time before my intrusive thoughts kick in
this video was basically an art piece ro. holy fuck i enjoyed every fucking second, thank you for putting this out. take as many breaks as you need! ill beat the fuck out of anyone who complains xoxo take care
I do just wanna say, Ro, the source list IS very helpful! The audience may be a bit small for them, but as a new generation of scholars enter college and start writing about the effect video essayists and commentators have on the popular conservation, being able to look at the sources for these videos will be a great help! I know I've run into the problem a few times already!
it’s hard to trust a lot of videos you see. i definitely agree and when i check a video for sources and actually find them for once, it seriously does make me light up a bit.
the way that i felt so included when you said ladies and non-binary people is honestly like indescribable thank you ro
Only recently found Ro, but they've quickly become one of my favorite UA-camrs. Keep this shit up dude.
I love how Ron went from annoying to interesting and engaging in the course of this video.
i loved the contrast between the two sides, how they're presented as the right and wrong sides, but then "ron" goes first and turns the video structure around. i can't really word it but their conflict is really well executed. there's probably some sort of symbolism there with how the red and blue lamps are dimmer when separated but the lights come on brighter and purple when they settle. there's a lot of food for thought.
This inner back and forth is beautifully chaotic, I cant explain how validating this felt for me. thank you for being vulnerable with the world, i appreciate the fuck out of it
I feel like I need to watch your videos at half speed to fully grasp what’s happening. My brain just doesn’t move fast enough.
Ro baby please don’t burn yourself out we need you to stick around! Don’t get my wrong I love the mounds of content but you’re spoiling us unnecessarily at the cost of your own well-being darling x
I love how you show yourself not only arguing with yourself, but you're arguing with yourself who's in the space and affecting the space. This is how I picture my anxiety, so it's neat to see it shown in a video.
I feel like me and Ro's eyes constantly feel like right after you're done crying and it's comforting to watch Ro for that reason and many others
Whenever Ro makes some incredibly obscure explanation of anything and it makes perfect sense, my soul transcends into a higher existence
As someone with DID, the ro/ron interactions were very relatable 😅
Anyway, this video was great! Take your rest as you need it, we can’t live in the grind 24/7
as someone who has been making videos since the first year of youtube's existence, yet have never reached even ro's level of success, this video hits hard.
got a 3 minute long benshapiro transphobia doc ad at the start of this video and just straight up thought it was part of the video and you were going to make fun of his pleading a begging, it was not rip me
great video though i did really enjoy your insight on life hacks
The unmediated ADHD joke hits me different, literally put off my taxes for two fucking years my roommate gave me one Ritalin and did them I’ve made no life progress since
this is the best video ive ever seen, ro you are so hilarious. the living embodiment of, as gaga said "talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopper, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it"
Your acting playing Ron was really great, the subtle body language you displayed (touching your face for example) really sold it, I think.
RO your music absolutely BANGS. You are everything
sometimes i watch Ro because im genuinely interested in the topic and want to learn. Sometimes i watch Ro because pretty person say smart words
commentator. actress. cinematographer. you're so many things at once and your videos are some of the most unique ive seen! i love them and i love your writing and delivery. take it one step at a time, you're doing amazing! : )
not 2 b parasocial on main but I relate a lot to the parts of urself/the thought processes you've included in ur videos thus far. ur probably the closest in age to me out of all the people i follow on here, which is wild going from being small and content creators/artists being millenials and then at the very least, like, the same age as my older siblings and now its like no this person took geometry with you. not actually! but thats the vibe
this video especially has given me a lot to think about... i was thinking the other day, like, "nobody is gonna care about the stuff i make bc it isnt special, unlike someone like ro ramdin who obviously is making stuff that is really special" but then in this there is the kind of theme of like, struggling between mass-appeal and i guess artistic intent? or just the desire to make something that is "good enough" even when what you want to do is different from what is necessary to get clicks or whatever and its like. yeah i feel that
srry i type like a teenager written by an adult from a late 2000's/early 2010's TV show im just like this
Damn girl, look at you go!! I feel like I discovered you yesterday and you had a very low number of subs and here you are getting thousands of views in the first hour!
HAVE A GOOD BREAK RO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Videos like this really make me wish UA-cam had a heart option along with like.
This shit just kinda summed up the plural experience. I don't know if that was the intent, or conscious, but... Man, those hard conversations with your other selves suck.
This was a banger. Take care of yourself.
i rarely comment on videos tbh, but i just want you to know that i hate you so much because this video is so good and is extremely well written that i have shat my pants multiple times for the whole 37 minutes of this video. i do hope you get a proper rest during your break! ❤️
I am in love with the symbolism of the colors in your videos. In this one in particular, your use of Red & Blue to differentiate your different sides and the way they come together at the end with the beautiful color purple.
This was really well done and kinda made me sad that you talk to yourself like that. You're very creative and intelligent and I can see that the way your brain works can overwhelm you. Take as much time as you need on a break, we all deserve rest but especially you after making this fantastic video.♥️
no bc deadass ur THE best commentary youtuber in my opinion. like my favorite. u were built for youtube and/or comedy like ur delivery is. unmatched. i literally love u
THE INTRO WAS SO GOOD WHAT
damn what a video, I admire the writing, editing and camera work
Why have I never noticed was a dazzling smile Ro has? Like if I didn't know her and saw her across the street and she gave me that smile, I think I'd blush and be unable to stop thinking happy thoughts about this all day, feeling better about my whole existence because of it.
It's just really radiant and good!
the joy that rushed through me when i got that notification- okay ro 🤨
i’m convinced she puts crack in the notifications somehow
i am the comedy head in the audience i am here. this was so very real and honest, its really refreshing to watch and listen to you.
Ro, your videos are genius, GENIUS!Love them so much. Btw, as a Ritalin user, yes, yes it helps. Really. Get on it. It clears the fog and switches off like 9 of the 10 tv's that are on in my brain at any given time.
The first minute of this video is the best indie art film intro I've ever seen
rose i was expecting silly funny jokes and skits from this vid and as always you delivered so much more :'o
your inner conflicts spoke to me so truly madly deeply... ever since graduating i keep chickening out on creative endeavours for fear of having to put monetary value on my work - especially in the youtube landscape (and yknow.. feeling hypocritical despite this being the only way to survive...)
tc doll
The is literally the best video I’ve seen on this horrible platform. Thanks Rose.
Watching Ro’s videos is what having adhd feels like I can confirm
I was cracking up like crazy at the rapid-fire jokes, I've gotta say. Your wit and humor is exquisitely sharp. Hope you're still continuing to take care of yourself (and take those breaks) when you need it...!
i always think "how is this video going to be this long" at the beginning and then before i realize it the videos ending and im sad
Omg, this is so cathartic. Art x Content is going to be the fight we have to fight during this early years of internet and globalism. Thank you for trauma dumping. Also, binging all your content. Thank you.
Ro IK i'm a complete stranger that doesn't know you but hearing your discussion with yourself was really impactful. You're a great performer, even if you're just saying things you genuinely think. The presentation was incredible, it in a way made me uncomfortable that you were being so harsh on yourself. IDK what you're going through but please be kinder to yourself, give yourself some credit. The stuff you do is fantastic but it's not all that's important about you. Also I DO appreciate that you cite your sources. A lot of people don't even when asked.
your art is honest you art is the breath of fresh air we need. all of the art you have created has been what we need. i hope it gives you what you need.
I feel like ro’s room is just 2 walls and a floor floating in an infinite expanse of space
not sure if this makes sense but i appreciate how romantically you talk about love and community and caring for others. not romantic like romantic love but more how the way you speak is idyllic. i appreciate how much passion you’re able to put into your words for these sorts of things esp when the topic is bleak (like your chick tracts video).
i just re watched blade runner 2049 last night for the first time since it came out and needless to say your call-out was harrowing. thanks for making me feel alive for the first time in a decade.
as a one piece fan your jokes are incredibly accurate, were not mentally stable at all 😔
this was my first ro video and im already obsessed, the energy, the humor, the writing, youre fucking GREAT and i cant wait to watch more
I think you've just gone up to my fav UA-camr maybe tied with one other. This is the sort of video essay I love, thank you, and I hope your break is restful!
I’m only 30 seconds into the video and the “Male class being removed, read the patch notes” is the absolute funniest bit I’ve heard in months
I think semi-relevant ramblings and usually funny jokes are what makes your content special and worth watching! :)
I liked the argument with yourself a lot. I argue with myself like that all of the time, and about similar things - about loving being right, feeling superior to others, trying to figure out whether something I'm doing really is better than others or if I'm just holding everyone else to a higher standard than I hold myself, etc. and honestly it's an important part of my thought process and introspection. I've never seen anyone else really do that self-argument bit in a way that truly reflected my thought process, so that's really cool
I genuinely love all of your videos. I love the comedy, I love the ends, I love the sketches, I love the overall message you give, and I ESPECIALLY love the "giving a dog a gun" jokes. I play these as something I can listen to while I go about my life and they are just so enjoyable :)
This is top tier performance art Rose keep up the good work
