i'm almost completely positive these are supposed to be bounced off the ground before hitting whoever you're aiming at. they're absolutely not supposed to be shot like this.

Oh they absolutely are intended to be fired directly at faces and eyes and all that. There's a few lines of text and some pictures to play pretend that the impact is actually quite pleasant if you just do a trick shot off the ground, but they're designed with, and purchased with, the full knowledge that these are going to be used to pop eyeballs and break bones.

It's just a cheap and safe way - for the cops - to implement a good ol' savage beatdown.

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.
