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.

Can I get a summary? Too long; didn't watch.

I didn't watch it, but I'm fairly sure it's about this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_two-step_bankruptcy

It's a legal maneuver to protect company assets from lawsuits by spinning off the liable parts of the company from the parts that hold the valuable assets.

The Texas two step could be a dance. And in a way - it is.

I remember hearing about a Chinese company that pulled shit like this

The CEO was executed

There's a great episode of Swindled on this.
