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.

What you're saying is true, and maybe to a slightly greater extent in Japan. However, I'm struggling to think of anywhere in the anglosphere where there aren't substantial populations of people who deny mental health problems and self-medicate with alcohol.

If there were a point I was trying to make that sets this matter apart from the anglosphere, it's only that the extent of the damage appears much worse to me in Japan. I don't believe that CBT or DBT has any presence there at all for comparison, even if it is prohibitively expensive in Whitesville. @heartheartbreak@hexbear.net

Nah CBT definitely has a presence in Japan and is officially acknowledged. Search 認知行動療法 and translate the results. There's sites from the government and hospitals explaining what it is and how to get treatment. There's also some hospitals offering DBT if you look up 弁証法的行動療法, but it seems less commonly available than CBT.

As with anything else about Japan, English sources tend to be about a decade out of date at best and wild hearsay passed off as fact at worst.
