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 CZcams 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!
Could not have said it any better

favorite comment ever
yeah!!!
I love that you frequently make it VERY clear that Bo Burnham comparisons are fully disallowed
i like how “life hacks in 2021 are ridiculous” can be interpreted as “the fact that we’re still covering life hacks in 2021 is ridiculous”
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.
i think ron is more correct than ro bc i'm a bitter sadsack but i like ur interpretation
@@roramdin my day has been utterly ruined with the knowledge the word sadsack exists. nevertheless this is beneficial long term
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!
Every video of hers is just constant whiplash and I love it
Facts, not sure I could have put that into words but you did it eloquently.
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.
This is so intensely accurate. Thanks for putting this into words.
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
biologically programmed to destroy
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.
AGREEEEE
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.
i think it's way better? but ok...
How are you everywhere?
@@jrdn643 my CZcams watch time is 23 hours a day...
@@JordySan same
@@JordySan ... I know its a bit hypocritical of my depressed ass to ask but
_Dude are you okay??_
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 laughed so audibly at that one, she’s so great
its nice to have a fem presenting commentator to watch ☺️ ive always loved this genre but oh my god is it male dominated... I just wanted to say Ro I love seeing more femininity in this community to look to for content and commentary!!
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
YES it is incredible
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
are you.. me?
^^^^ same but a nonbinary blob
as someone who also never does/hangs laundry and is honestly in the same boat, i believe in you queen! 💖
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.
with each and every new video ro makes i absorb some of her humor and become slightly more funny and tolerable to be around
no honestly she’s my whole personality rn
ME TOO and IT WORKS
NO SAME
ME 2
Heyyy congrats 😂😂
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
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
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.
Nothing stupid about that comment. Kudos
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
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
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.
Punched in the gut in a good way is the best explanation of what it feels to watch Ro's videos
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.*
heck. yeah.
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
have you seen the pomegranate cutting one? that one is wonderful
Separating egg yolks with a water bottle
@@ohioella my grandma taught me this when i was rly little and i am forever grateful to her for it lol
I was doing a college ice breaker once and a woman identified herself as a "life hack expert" so... chew on that I guess.
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.
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.
I love how Ron went from annoying to interesting and engaging in the course of this video.
Ro’s just- Their rare insults are literally the best, makes me smile all the time ahgsjagsjsh
“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 :)
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
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 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. ♥
Wow! My weekly existential crisis! Thanks Rose!
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!
the feminine urge to turn everything you create into an artistic expression of self
yeah tbh
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
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 CZcamsrs. Keep this shit up dude.
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
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.
Wonderful, just in time before my intrusive thoughts kick in
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 aspire to be this witty. I'm getting funnier just listening to Ro. Hey if she wants to become a scammy CZcams influencer she should sell a course on "how to become quippy for quality content creation in 10 days or less"
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 ro’s room is just 2 walls and a floor floating in an infinite expanse of space
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
I am replacing my gender dysphoria with rewatching ro’s content.
I found your channel from the nft video on twitter, then heard nick mention and you all the time. I love your content and I'm excited for your channel's growth, cause it's definetely happening.
Love you, keep up the good work
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
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.
i relate to ur videos on a level i cant quite describe. its worrying, but also so so so needed. this is the kind of content i wanted and need in my life.
I feel like I can’t even articulate how much I love and am impressed with this video, you really are a creator, creator of something a lot more than just a video and i’m grateful we’re lucky enough to see what you do
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! : )
Ro’s videos always both boost my serotonin while simultaneously pushing me deeper into my existential spiral and I couldn’t be happier about it.
Thank you for being vulnerable with your audience. It's heartwarming to see so many creators finding ways to talk openly about the burdens that come along with that. Not to mention, the artistry of it being so inspiring
Take care of yourself 💙
you are one of my favorite creators and i love how vulnerable and relatable you are, while still adding hilarious bits of content and covering current topics, geniunely you’re a beautiful writer and amazing content creator, i can’t wait to see you continue to grow
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 :)
i love your content so much, this is just so beautiful. enjoy the break
Ro your videos always blow me away with how well spoken you are, and how detailed and introspective you are❤️
Damn. Did not expect this video to hit this hard. That dialogue between the two selves was especially real and definitely mirrored a lot of conversations I've had with myself about the state of "content" and the act of "content creation" and trying to be authentic and do things I like while also keeping "the audience" in mind and the algorithm in your heart.
It's a lot, and it's exhausting, and if it doesn't feel fun then it's definitely time for a break. Thanks for making this even though you weren't super happy with it. If nothing else, it feels good to see those feelings laid out like this, so thank you for not throwing this video away. Hope you have a nice 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.
thank you so much for this video ro
I don’t often find a YT channel that I recommend to everyone I know but this is definitely one of them.
The way Ro weaves entertainment and education together by not only holding the viewer captive with their comedy but also the insight and empathy and self reflection…it’s genius.
Thank you for being you. You make the world a better place to exist in.
FANTASTIC video Ro. I’m always looking forward to new uploads from you; you’re a very genuine person and that shows in your content. Take as much time as you need for yourself. I hope you’re able to find some rest and peace of mind.
Thank you for the captions!!
I'm glad to know someone else goes through this weird endless loop of thought that leaves you feeling stagnant and wanting to be right and all the other things. I come for the wit and leave hopelessly questioning myself more love your work Ro!!!!
Ro i love ur videos and they keep bringing new value to the genre but pls take a break eventually burn out is terrible and u deserve to take care of urself like u take care of making good videos
the writing, cinematography and editing are all so on point. this was a great walk through of your mental state and processing your thoughts. the humor in your videos is always fun but then you just slap me back into reality and i love it. i really enjoy your content 💕take care
RO your music absolutely BANGS. You are everything
this was incredible ro. thank you for sharing your art. i hope you know how much we truly appreciate the time and effort you put into your creations. if this is your passion (which it seems it is) please don't give up!! we love seeing your content! i always get so excited when i see a new video from you. again, thank you, and great work once again.
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.♥️
Wow, this was so real and raw. I really appreciate you showing us yourself.
I think you've just gone up to my fav CZcamsr maybe tied with one other. This is the sort of video essay I love, thank you, and I hope your break is restful!
literally every single video from you has been absolutely top tier. Everything about the production and jokes has been beyond amazing!! i’m so glad i found your channel early because the level of content that you’re producing is not only extremely entertaining but really really well done!!
genuinely, your work is amazing. i hope you think it at least sometimes!
You really articulated the vague feelings ive had about the direction youtube is going and incorporated the smaller points other people have made about it, and pulled out a poignant thesis on the 'content economy' i didnt know i was missing! Also seeing the color theory/lighting design start from the very beginning of the video and crescendo with the ro/ron dialogue was So Cool! it was an amazing touch that put this video over the edge of being my favorite of your work! definitely one of the best commentary videos ive seen all year.
Ro your videos touch me in the same way TFB lyrics do, they are so hyper specific yet broadly relatable in the feelings they provoke. this was really artful in every way, and i adore your music in the background. your work is my favourite on this platform, i promise your effort isnt unseen.
girl how have I never seen your videos until this week… stellar writing philosophical takes I’m all in
your content is in a league of its own and I can’t wait for when there are more people who can experience it for themselves!
i love you and you are genuinely so naturally funny.
youre so lovely, ro
This is top tier performance art Rose keep up the good work
you really captured the Cycle- I am impressed and stressed!!! your videos just keep improving, thank you for putting in so much thought into them. Enjoy your break
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.
You are the sole reason why my vocabulary is bettering itself. I adore you for it. Thank you.
you deserve more than a week off, i hope that taking some time for yourself is healing for you. 💗 the videos you make are fantastic and i'm glad you're taking time to take care of yourself.
you're amazing, i love these so much. i wish i could describe how deep your videos are received.
You’re wonderful to watch when I am mentally able to, since your videos usually extrapolate general topics into reflections on societal issues, and they’re absolutely wonderful while also being terrifying. But I genuinely adore them no matter when they come out, and I love them as an authentic exploration with artfulness and care, even when I cannot necessarily watch them immediately.
With all that, I’m sure the topics and how you dig deeper can be exhausting mentally on top of everything else- I know of course that this is a job, and that you don’t even know me, but I hope you’re able to refresh your brain a bit. You don’t have to be everything, if that makes any sense!
HAVE A GOOD BREAK RO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
take all the time u need on a break! i will literally watch anything you put out at any point in time lol, please don’t overwork yourself for our sake because the sheer quality of everything you’ve produced so far is enough sustenance for months
Its 6:30 AM and I’ll be bingeing your videos until I pass out Ro. I feel so jealous of your youth, intelligence, and sense of humor- but I’m not gonna let that stop me from watching. I wish I was still young, I wish I still had a future and a bright mind like you do. Sponsors will come your way in a matter of time. Thanks for making stimulating content that makes me feel less alone and laugh out loud. Thanks for being such a lovely distraction to get lost 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
Honestly the best life hack commentary video I've ever seen ! Great job
Ro, remember that *you* are loved. I hope you have a good and restful, much needed, break. Your videos are relatable, funny, charming, and I look forward to seeing whatever you continue to make in the future.
Take a break as long as you'd like or need! Great video as always!
I am not in a place rn where I can watch a video like this but I hope you find some moments of peace over your break
