that maher and vanlife influencers are both terrible. Maher because he’s a charlatan, and the influencers because they tend to be white people from well off backgrounds who can do that shit. im probably also tainted by the fact that i know someone who is doing the vanlife thing, and it was so easy to accomplish when her parents bought her a van to travel the country with your dog selling hippy shit at Phish concerts. It’s just a gross display of privilege. Do the vanlife thing but don’t be vain about it.

Posting for strangers is the definition of vanity. Her posting about traveling is good to inspire other transfolk but it’s still that Twitter/Insta level of vanity to me.

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.
