Dear Chris It is on rare occasion that I will comment on a video, maybe because lately I feel like youtube is as much as entertaining, and endless loop for those who have a watching problem or adhd (or both). I often watch and feel like I lost time trying to find an answer. But not this. I'd never imagine how much watching this video would impact me. It felt like I was watching a different (not too different) version of myself. I am too someone that has ADHD, lost their dad and is an aspiring writer . The loss of time in the world of ideas and in the past itself is something that haunts me. Those are the things that make you feel like there's nothing you can do about them, or so I thought. This video made me realize that creating, in anyway, is NEVER unimportant, and that our lived experiences are like the grains of sands in a desert, the desert would be nothing without them. And what's the coolest part about this whole thing, is that you made it easily applicable to us all. Writing is the gateway to the eternal life, memory lives on.Thank you so much for putting your soul out there for anyone to see. Your kids and all of those who you love will never forget you.

what the heck the cinematography is phenomenal

[@sadmailman]

Shocked that this channel has such a low sub count. You’ve created a great, refreshing, and sincere video. Thank you for sharing.

[@jordanD656]

this video is an insane level of quality

[@davidwalker9594]

The ending of your video was deep.. and the price of admissions is so true, and I feel you when it comes to your family. But know that your ethics are being displayed as a wonderful example to your family. You might feel like you're missing out on your kids growing up, but your kids get to see you as an engaged father who gets it done, and that's awesome.

hi, i was sick for 4-5 days unable to do anything at all, so i just watched youtube and rest rest rest youtube has suggested me so many MANY bad videos, pranks, reactons, ect, but i wad so sick to think so i just spent my tine watching garbage and i felt dumber and dumber watching them, but suddenly, my sick brain tricked algorithms to show me videos like this, the good side of KZbin that i kind of lost for some time and im so glad that i found it again, the KZbin side where passionate people talk or give tips on things they are passianate about and wow, you are the best example so far, keep it this way to resembe this good KZbin side, because you do it just perfectly :3

I had a similar problem as well. I ended up just wiping my watch history completely, since that's what the algorithm uses to recommend you new videos (with an empty watch history, youtube won't even recommend you any videos; it'll tell you to go watch some first, on desktop at least). I applied liberal use of the subscribe button (with notifications) for channels that I genuinely enjoy, and unsubscribed from any that I no longer enjoy. Watch a few of your favourite videos to kickstart you new algorithm, and remove any videos from your watch history if you decide afterwards that you don't want them affecting your recommendations. Tending to your watch history is the single best way to ensure your recommendations are high quality, as even a single video can drastically affect them.

[@growthquest2334]

this is one of the best videos i've seen in a really long time

[@faeluvzelda5091]

oh man! started watching this video and then realized it only had 112 likes, this is great i hope more ppl see it.

[@user-cz2jo4nq2i]

I don't think I know what to do with this video yet but obviously I need to do something with it. Thank you for this

[@Awesomepedia]

Appreciate youtube for bringing me to your fine little film

[@RaksoBackwards]

I really love this expression. Great editing and stop motion.

[@kaiiimee]

you´re honestly damn underrated man! Don´t forget us when you´re famous, I really thought this was a much much bigger channel I came upon. Awesome quality and I could really relate to the problems you talked about, I hope I can translate some of your solutions to my art forms, it´s really hard to get to it though

[@montanaguerrero9285]

just thank you

[@charlottedrcleary4358]

Wonderful video! I loved #2 especially. Really relevant to me right now. I had been missing your content, so glad to see you back🫶

[@comradeScallion]

i hear that neutral milk hotel in the background :p

[@juliaz1965]

this was very powerful! Bowie had some great advice. you did too!

[@sw3dge]

Bullet Journal is so powerful. Not basic. Usually custom anyways.

[@errata9968]

This was truly beautiful. Thank-you

[@bob_sala]

Kudos for the work you put into this. deserved a follow

[@bob_sala]

[@kaijah.zinester.kjmart]

[@christopherbudnick]

[@idiodidact]

thank you for realness

[@MagicRay2]

There was so much in your video that I resonated with! The last part though it disturbed me (in a good way) it was like one of those reality checks with time being whats taken out of your account ya know? ⭐️ Would you be up for being on a radio broadcast/ podcast?

[@christopherbudnick]

sure! send me an email w/ details, it should be accessible through my profile/about.

[@junoestro]

youre incredible

[@juriand]

I have been using org-roam for ages now, and realy loved the look and feel you have created. Is your configuration hosted somewhere, so I could steal some snippets?

[@christopherbudnick]

thanks! i'll upload it for you later this week and reply back with a link.

[@christopherbudnick]

here you go: gist.github.com/ononotofu/bbb371ac4ac0ae6638d8706ca83d5515 - it's slightly different than the configuration I use for my terminal (because it's mosh/tmux/monochrome/9" monitor)

[@riverbandit2138]

What’s the video about? I’m so confused. Especially with how play writers aren’t writers their “writers.” What does that mean?

[@anjuliwillmer]

a playwright is someone who builds or crafts a play, like a shipwright might build a ship. it is a coincidence that it sounds like "write."

[@eky]

lmao this guy is so philly

[@goghfurther]
