Your sons are lucky to have someone as thoughtful, vulnerable yet secure as yourself as their father. In a world that's keen on stepping backwards and being pervaded by the worst personalities for boys / young men to emulate, it's especially important for us to set a better example for those in our lives, who look up to us.
I think it would be really hard to build a community out of a majority of any audience on RUclips, most viewers are here for dopamine with some occasional introspection at the end in comments. That said, a subset of people interested in non RUclips content and or sharing their common interests related to the channel would likely enjoy a discord server. I really appreciate this video and your voting videos, I also learned a lot dispite the outcome not going as desired. Thanks for providing a place for our brains to be distracted and comforted, your content is mesmerizing :)
@tomikun8057 I'm not sure what kind of community can be built on IRC sites as I have never used one. I guess I don't fit your idea of community here, sad times.
There's a lot of wonderful and beautiful videos on RUclips, but very few of them hit the same way this does. It's a beautiful mix of music and, I guess philosophy, and a beautiful show that there's people out there who care for everyone... Complete strangers included. For as much as my gratitude is worth, if it is seen, thanks for this video and thanks for caring about strangers. I hope that someone as simple as a nice short video on RUclips may just be enough to help a couple of people one way or another.
Thanks for this comment! You know, with most videos, my goal is to make a hit -- a video that a bunch of people will see, and that the algorithm will run with. (It's not my only goal of course, but I want to grow the channel so that I can devote more time to it, etc.) But with this video, I kind of knew it would be smaller scale, it wasn't going to go viral or anything, but I thought it might be really meaningful to a smaller number of people. Based on the survey responses, and comments like yours, I think it was. :-)
I volunteer with a non-profit that offers free appliance repair clinics. Just people getting together helping each other in our local community. That really helped this weekend to just do good things and talk to people who were feeling the same feelings I was.
You know, this seems to be a demographic! I'm on Mastodon, and there's a pretty sizable trans creative coding community there (especially on certain instances). What I'm learning from some of the survey responses, is that this demographic is more present in my YT audience than I realized!
This reminds me of something ive read in a book. Life is a game. One that never ends. Without a true 'ending' to the game, there is no winning it. When people try to 'win' said game, they make decisions that are shortsighted. Or just plain foolish. So, that inadvertently causes them to lose the game. The closest 'win' condition there is, is by keep playing the game even when others have lost.
Thank you for this! I have really enjoyed all of your content since I found you through the music with circles videos. It inspired a much needed project idea for a foundations of computer science class I'm in. I wanted to share it incase it was something you might be interested in making a video from. I'm designing an algorithm/method to create melodies from strands of DNA. I've found a bunch of papers with interesting ideas that connect patterns in biology to musical concepts for composition. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for your inspiring creativity! And on a separate note, creating a discord server could be a good way to build a community.
So bautiful Video! I'm not from the USA but still feal what you mean. What ever you decide for the comunity I'll follow. (This is part what I look for on the Internet.)
I'm always looking for cool online interactive tools like all the new things desmos can do and microtonal syths. There could be discord or subreddit to share these kinds of creations.
Find reasons to live again. Find reasons to care & survive. Even if it's just out of pure spite, wanting to outlive the next 4 years. And take time to cross things off your bucket list. Make good food. Enjoy things as if you might not make it through the next 4 years. Also btw I'm nonbinary! Glad to be in the channel minority lol.
Hey, the gender of 1.4% of my audience is "User-specified", so there must be a few others like you! But yeah, I tend to agree; being sad and scared is totally understandable, but it's not especially helpful. Some very bad people have risen to power in a political sense, but let's not let them have power over us emotionally too.
Feel this a lot, feeling little reason to keep “surviving” at all .. I’ve made it this far already but like just why .. atleast before there was some sense of general improvement overall..
I really like the idea of a Discord server, but I'm not sure if I have reasons to participate, personally (I like the videos, but I don't feel excited about direct interaction with others, sorry)

Thank you. As a father seeking to raise three kind boys i appreciate the community you're building.

No I think an IRC site where you can just join and chat would be better
or something like matrix
discord isnt really targetted at this audience

Discord is a Matrix client, though. Dr K. did well, for one. @@tomikun8057
Damn we just got rickrolled by a fourier transform… 😂
I think we all saw it coming a mile away, but stuck around so we could hear it
never have I been Rick rolled more elegantly 🙉😍
0:30 i am at fear and uncertainty of whether i am gonna get rickrolled or not

hi im also one of those :3
@@marcevansteinwhat's your username/instance on masto?
This is a lovely little video. Thank you
There is no final end state. The wheel keeps turning. The game goes on, and you only lose when you stop playing. Don't do anything stupid.
This reminds me of something ive read in a book.

Untill there is.
The add saved me from the potential rickroll, now should i risk it and watch the video
Yes you should

It's felt pretty acute for those of us in the USA over the last week or so, but I wasn't necessarily making this just for Americans!
Wow, what an amazing channel ive stumbled upon
after 30s here's my thought: it's a fourier serie that converges to a rick roll.
Bingo !
I'm always looking for cool online interactive tools like all the new things desmos can do and microtonal syths. There could be discord or subreddit to share these kinds of creations.
Your making me emotional over a fucking rickroll
Lovely thank you for giving me a goood morning
Lovely video
👍

Feel this a lot, feeling little reason to keep “surviving” at all .. I’ve made it this far already but like just why .. atleast before there was some sense of general improvement overall..
how many people actually filled in the form so far?
Like 35? A lot more than I was expecting to be honest, and quite thoughtfully.
could you create a Discord comunity?
Sure seems like I should!
i'd join a discord
How can I block you?
I really like the idea of a Discord server, but I'm not sure if I have reasons to participate, personally (I like the videos, but I don't feel excited about direct interaction with others, sorry)
I expected a rickroll
I feel disapointed
You didn't hear it?!!?!?? 3:25
Make a video about Ultimate Tic Tac Toe
Ho you voted on?
Video idea: Create music from words. I will do the same, and then there will be a vote on who did better. I challenge you.
