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.

Carnivero Nursery (www.carnivero.com) is located just outside of Austin Texas. In this video we pay them a visit and discuss the evolution of carnivory and how it's related to geology, how elevation affects temperature in the tropics, lighting, humidity and evaporative cooling, and the great diversity among all the plants that have independently evolved carnivory to compensate for low-nitrogen soils.

My big goal as a naturalist is to get to his level where he can walk through an ecosystem and know everything around him.

He's apparently a botanical savant so it might already be too late for you idk but good luck!

There's a video where he recommends a bunch of textbooks for learning botany that he used. I don't think he's a savant but it's clear he spends a shitload of time learning and doing field work.
