That show aged really well. Explicitly calling out real-world American government shit like Gladio, Operation Paperclip, Iran-Contra, etc. Mixing up the setting every few years to refresh the well of jokes. A refreshing lack of homophobia and transphobia, which was all too common in other animated adult stuff from the late 2000s. I'm still a fan.

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.

Yeah I watched a few of the season 2 eps last year expecting it to have aged terribly but I had the same experience
I finished 13 seasons of it recently and my overall feelings about it are “meh”. I guess my ideas of good “adult animation” are wildly different than what everyone else likes. There is homophobia, a lot of -phobias and -isms actually, but usually from the more asshole characters and doesn’t really bother me.
The callouts of the CIA are just surface level stuff that you see from someone who reads a little bit of history, but still not convinced that the country they live in is shit. Like yes, the CIA did indeed overthrow a democratically elected government - do you have anything else to add? No? Alright.
I didn’t really care about the politics of it. I just thought the show repetitive and tiresome to watch after a few episodes
