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.

well-written analysis of the trans experience and the weird shit that goes on in the heads of repressed trans people.

the last part at the end of the vid really hit me that I wasn't expecting. mainly like wanting to be seen and understood, and just wanting to be me that is me. and it doesn't help I get caught up thinking about what other people think of me and being highly critical of myself, or like wanting approval from others at times just to find a sense of belonging? or like closeness? or understanding? or to not be alone? or to feel valid like im a person and I exist kind of feeling? not sure how to phrase that. but something like that

Hope this isn't weird but I love this video so much I want to comment in both places. This video is GREAT and had a big impact on me.

Great video, certified banger. Thank you for sharing this.

The part about going through a religious phase hit close to home for me (thankfully none of the megachurch evangelicalism applies). Also about consuming trans-coded content, I think I cope with my own psychological inability to transition by being as open and vocal about trans issues and themes as I can be, kinda like the mangaka of Inside Mari.

My trans experience isn't the same, but it's always nice to see parts of you reflected in others.
