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.

This is a very interesting deep dive into how much wargaming has an influence on world politics.

Maybe I'm too cynical at this point, but the thing that most surprises me is the fact that other people are surprised at how deeply intertwined the game industry is with the military industrial complex.

your country's wargames might now be something that you can get a career in. Or could determine your career in games by you deciding that you are ethically opposed to your labour being used by the sector in any way.

Interesting choice of words in that first five minutes. Use of the word labour suggests to me these dudes are socialists or sympathisers.

Quinns is better well known for his channel Shut Up & Sit Down. I used to watch their videos way back in the day when I still bothered with boardgames. From the past videos I've watched of his, it definitely seems he's somewhere around or past at least the socdem side of matters. In a good way.
