>>112935235It felt patronizing. The whole thing didn't feel like a genuine attempt to help anyone, it was just a bunch of empty platitudes with two thots talking down at the audience like children. It's operating under false pretenses that Ross is genuinely internet famous on his own instead of just a sycophant hanging onto other people more famous than him, so the whole thing feels like its talking from this unearned sense of authority. The attempts at humor fell flat at best and were embarrassingly bad at worst. Literally the only positive is that the girls are coomer bait, and even then you can find better cartoony monster girls in a hundred different places. It felt like manufactured wholesomeness that rings hollow because it doesn't have anything meaningful to say.
>Creativity is a journey, and you should either give directions or stay in your own laneThis line in particular rubbed me the wrong way. I don't disagree with it on the surface, its better to be constructive when discussing material from artists. But it has this attitude with a lot of baggage that being critical is inherently a bad thing. I think Ross' advice is actually detrimental to people who really want to make content because it encourages them to completely lose sight of focus and vision that is inherently shaped by a desire to see something that doesn't exist, and that's intrinsically tied to being critical about the art scene you want to involve yourself with. It's anti competitive and anti creative in spirit.
I think its in poor taste, in poor quality, and lacking in its utility. It's fucking lame.
