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 have the dumbest office job. I go in, walk upstairs to my office, sit in my room alone all day, leave and go home. I only ever see anyone when I need to go to the kitchen, or when I go to make a copy.

and yet it's imperative that I go in. My boss doesn't even work in my building. So most of the time I don't even go in, and I never tell him. Barely even talk to him unless it's an emergency.

I like that i don't have to deal with anyone, but it's so dumb that they really want people in the space...

wtf is your job??

so moral of the story, I don't have the experience of this video at all, except when I ask the building secretary what she's eating for lunch.

The other woman who works downstairs and I have the same conversation

"good morning PPF, how are you?"

"good morning J---, im doin alright, how are you?"

and then she doesn't even respond so I just walk away.

“good morning PPF, how are you?”

“good morning J—, im doin alright, how are you?”

and then she doesn’t even respond so I just walk away.

lol I've had this conversation so many times

it's funny because I work in the English as a Second or Other Language field and we always have to be like 'often times, "what's up" or "how are you" aren't actual questions you need to answer'

Gotta justify owning that office space.

the best part is, I"m kinda exaggerating because i don't even have an office space. I work in an empty classroom that they just slapped an extra desk in for me.

the students don't come in because they're still remote. The rest of the building is sorta used for differnt things, but have nothing to do with me. so either way the space is being used for something if i'm there or not.

Ah well that's cool. Er wait no its not fuck.

honestly, at this point i just don't really give a shit. I'm on a mental health break from my previous employment that fucked me up. I'll deal with internal boring nonsense rather than emotionally and intellectually abused while living in poverty.

Yeah I'm in a similar situation, I got fired (likely for union agitating but of course they didn't say that) but I had like 150 hours pto saved up so my last check plus my savings means I get a chance to take a much needed vacation before hitting the job hunt, though I already have a few places I'm thinking of applying. Literally haven't been able to take a vacation in years outside like an extended weekend here and there.
