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 just got this randomly by the algo lol. I know nothing of him or his channel.

Despite the bad introduction he gets there about 10-15 minutes in. Of course there is no reason to watch a random guy talk for 40 minutes but I do think it is kind of bittersweet, personally I liked that he cares about the dog.

The ultimate reason? American healthcare is demoralizing even for people who are the top of the elite experts in their field. Some of them end up deeply unhappy, traumatized even. The contradictions are obvious, so extremely obvious its not just impossible not to notice but not feel bad about it.

Moral of the story? Most people are not privileged enough to just quit but if you find yourself in this situation and you can do it, actually consider it. This capitalist world isn't worth your personal sacrifice, no matter how good your intentions.

Had a friend who spent lots of money and years of her life to become a lawyer, only to realize how fucked up our justice system is and leave to become a social worker for an organization that helps people with mental health issues
