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.

A judge in the US state of Michigan was surprised when a defendant appeared for his remote court hearing while behind the wheel. Corey Harris, who is charged with driving on a suspended licence, joined the call from a moving car. "I don't even know why he would do that," the judge said to the defendant's lawyer.

Jokes aside it's actually pretty damning because there's literally no public transportation in most areas of america so you're forced to drive like it or not.

It'd be just shy of a death sentence here. Unless you're in a specific municipality running a shitty bus service, there's nothing available. My last four commutes have been 45min+ mountain drives just to get a wage that barely covers the car expenses and rent.

It is fucked. I've heard other people's driving cases in local court when I've been, where the judge sort of tacitly acknowledges unlicensed driving but is oh so powerless if one gets pulled over (idk there probably is actually mandatory sentencing in PA for that stuff). This guy really fucked up though, it's almost Onion worthy.
