Please tell me she doesn't defend this book. It's full of weird toxic relationship shit.

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.
she doesn't defend the book, it's more a psychological exploration of why otherwise decent and egalitarian people end up wanting dark shit that reinforces male supremacy
Cool, sounds interesting!
Some parts are done justice, other parts are not. All in all, it's a very good video by the standards of the exploration of sexuality, especially w.r.t. psychological mechanisms. From what i could tell twilight itself is used more as an exemplar of the genre (because most of us know what it's about through pure cultural osmosis), and a jumping off point for discussion about deeper things (an ironic enjoyment of the work is offered, as far as i can tell, just to mug at the camera a bit). Sadly, i've found that the more people dig into sexuality and its mechanisms (as a group discussion) the more they become weird philosophy goblins about their differences (and i'm no exception), so despite my lukewarm review you might completely bounce off of it, which is fair enough.
it felt like an exploration of romance novels as a whole, lots of stuff about sexuality, love and desire, and does touch on the toxic relationships in twilight
ig cw for discussions of abuse, transphobia, harry potter references, but it's for the most part family friendly viewing
*edit it's family not amply lol
