Thanks Joanne!❤ After coming across your previous upload, I immediately subbed to share in your further insights and to continue expanding the community. I too have found that the dynamic being created through reaction channels to be quite a surprise and a delight. Back in the before-times, in the mid-1970s, (yikes!) I attended a prominent musical university. While holding a great love of music, I was not attending as a musical student, nor did I have any practical understanding of the subject. However, nearly everyone I met was a music student and most held high aspirations. In this environment (remember, personal computers only arrived in 75) I spent a great deal of time going from one dorm room to another, listening to whatever an individual might be "into," eagerly soaking up knowledge and/or, sharing whatever musical treats I had "discovered." These impromptu gatherings also allowed me an opportunity to establish strong friendships, as well as to sincerely discuss/clarify the onslaught of energy and human shiite we were all obliged to engage. For me, these were the best of times, which over the years since, evermore faded into impressionistic memories. Now, the emergence of music, (et al), reaction communities, have more than rekindled this cherished dynamic. Beyond just providing an endless stream of new acquaintances, who are all eager to explore music and share their perspectives, I feel the community spurred forward by Ren, the Renegades and like-minded folks is doing much, much more. Ren has certainly been the primary catalyst in centering initial efforts on his all-too-real Sick Boi perspective, but it is the subsequent gathering of sensitive and supportive individuals that is making all the difference. The growth and recognition of such a welcoming community, for me at the very least provides a friendly place to hang out whenever I want or need to, 24/7. The party, as well as the sincere desire to just have fun and to help if need be, seemingly never ends. Makes my day, every day. Anyway...enough rambling, thank you again for sharing your insights...(I too missed the live stream and need to finish listening...^_^) Peace ✌
@@JoanneWhitlock Check out his stuff with The Big Push, totally different, totally brilliant. War Pigs is my personal fav, but The Big Push are also outstanding, or they were :-(
Missed you! But Western Australian time so will generally miss live streams. Ren reactions are a form of "stimming" for me. Sensory soothing. I don't know how many of us addicted to watching the reactions are neurospicy. I'm sure there's a lot if us with autism / adhd etc. But seriously doesn't matter. I don't want to categorise us.
I agree, and as for times of lives, I'm figuring stuff out right now. This was done after my daughters bedtime - but I'm normally in bed at the same time! Today I'm paying the price a bit, but it was fun!
Suspect I have always been a bit of neuro something, but have reached well over middle age now without knowing, so shall muddle along as best I know how.
😂... we ALL get down our own rabbit holes. LUCKily, you're in Ren's now & there's SO much love down here & most of us since Hi Ren, will throw a day away with a smile watching, liking & commenting amongst those making them. we've all heard the songs, we come for the reaction & connect through expression via translation on the screen. HUGs to ya Joanne & can't wait to see where you go & how it potentially helps in different ways.
Well.... have been since he reacted Hi Ren then Sick Boi.... He was there for the filming of (I know you haven't done the Money Game series yet, but) Money Game 3.
Being ahead of you in time zones, I tend to miss live streams from other parts of the world. I am not on social media, so all that stuff means little to me.
