This sort of thing reminds me of the time in high school where I had to read Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. But it’s a surreal, absurdist novel and high school me didn’t know what to do with that. I asked the teacher “so the narrator hit his head in the boiler room and went insane?” And she, very gently, explained to me that this wasn’t a novel meant to be read as if it were really happening.

I don’t think I really got it, but I ended up liking it anyway. Looking back it’s honestly pretty cool we were assigned that book.

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.
