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.

I used to have some shitty views on fat people, but even then, The Biggest Loser was really uncomfortable for me to watch (thanks, Mom). It was obvious to me that treating something that's meant to be a positive goal (getting healthier) as a ruthless, win-at-all-costs, zero sum competition with binary success and failure modes could not possibly to anyone's benefit (except the show's producers, of course).

And now that jillian clown is a white supremacist and the vast majority of contestants regained their weight. Who knew going on an extreme calorie deficit is bad for your health. Being in the med field this topic of obesity and weight loss is far more complex than people think but people want simple solutions. Even a saiyan that trains to near death can tell you that humans don't have that zenkai boost vegeta-stare

Similar issue with gastric bypass surgery. You’re fucking up your body and risking dying and nearly everyone who gets the surgery eventually gains most if not all of the weight back anyway.
