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.

Help finding video about microwave cookbooks? (hexbear.net)

Comrades, I need help. My wife and I both very clearly remember watching a long video about a series of retro microwave cookbooks with crazy photography. Guy tracks down the photographer, interviews him, he talks about the crazy pictures and how computer editing was new at the time.

We were super excited because we found a set of the cookbooks, but I can’t find the video anywhere, nor any reference to it. I’m so confused, we both remember it super clearly and separately recognized the books on sight, so if it’s a collective delusion it’s pretty impressive.

Anyone know what the fuck I’m talking about?

I found it! It wasn’t a video essay, it was a handful of overly long tiktoks

No but I gave it some of my own searches because I'm curious now. Is the book series called "Microwave Cooking Library"? The images are a little blurry. Also do you know the name of the photographer?
