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.

In this episode, Sal Mercogliano - maritime historian at Campbell University (@campbelledu) and former merchant mariner - discussed the attack on the Marshall Island-flagged 110,000-ton tanker Marlin Luanda by the Houthi. The ship was struck by a missile, and its cargo of naphtha was ignited. The crew, alongside support from several warships, in particular the Indian destroyer INS Visakhapatnam, were able to extinguish the fire and begin the salvage of the vessel.

A shipping industry channel I've been following since the Suez Canal was blocked. He has good supplemental takes from different maritime and market perspectives.

They are limiting their intervention to their own nation's ships/sailors. The Indians intervene to rescue Indian crew and French naval ships have been escorting French-flagged cargo ships through while ignoring others.
