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.

At least on the surface that seems to be the case. Which doesn't seem good. Couple points though:

Iran is a hub of a new strategic international shipping corridor with China via the new rail system. This corridor changes western hegemony on shipping lanes. China and Russia have energy deals with Iran that they are strategically interested in preserving.

Israel has no satellites for intel and targeting. The US withdrew forces in the shortly before Israels sneak attack. This entire attack was planned and coordinated with the US long before this moment, but the US claims they are "not a party". Well, China and Russia (and other interests) can also be "not a party".

I don't know much. Iran does seem confident and I'm trying to look beyond my own doomerism.
