Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Commenting just to say to anyone who hasn’t seen it and for some reason is checking comments first: this is worth listening to.

If you liked this speech then you'll probably enjoy the minutes from Georgi Dimitrov's appearance in a German court where he was accused by the Nazi Party of conspiring to burn the Reichstag.

It requires a little bit of foreknowledge of that moment in history but if you want to do a bit of a deep dive in a historical moment then focusing on this one is pretty neat.

If you are just looking for another firebrand speech during judicial proceedings then this particular Dimitrov speech before the court might scratch that itch.
