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.

Is this the sequel to How To Blow Up An Oil Pipeline?

Or is it an adaptation of Winter Of Our Discontent by Steinbeck?

A video essay examining the AI alignment debate through a structural lens. Combining Max Tegmark's 12 possible AI futures with Yudkowsky and Soares' alignment arguments, this video argues the real alignment problem isn't technical — it's about who controls the most consequential technology in human history.

Who is building superhuman AI? A handful of unelected executives in Northern California. For whom? Shareholders, not humanity. Under what pressures? A competitive race where the most reckless actor sets the pace for everyone.

Drawing on historical parallels from leaded gasoline to asbestos, the video argues the same pattern repeats: a small group captures benefits while everyone pays costs. The solution isn't more alignment research — it's democratic governance of AI development.

Ibrahim Traoré is growing rice, wheat, apples, and pineapples less than a hundred miles from the Sahara Desert — no IMF, no World Bank, no foreign permission required.

This is the inside story of Burkina Faso's agricultural revolution. Traoré launched the Agro-Pastoral and Fisheries Offensive, a near-billion-dollar initiative funded by revenues from nationalized gold mines. Over $300 million in tractors, power tillers, water pumps, and fertilizer was distributed to farmers at zero cost. 64,000 hectares cleared and put into production. Six million tonnes of cereals in a single season. By April 2026, Burkina Faso suspended all rice imports.

The infrastructure making this possible: the Bagré Dam and its Bagrépôle agricultural growth pole on the White Volta River, the Soum Dam in Nanoro producing 7,500 tonnes of rice annually, the Samandéni Dam converted into a floating-cage aquaculture hub targeting 54,000 tonnes of fish per year, and the Di and Dourou perimeters in the Sourou Valley — powered by the Kirci Dam solar pumping station delivering 9,720 cubic meters of water per hour into land that was semi-desert a decade ago.

Inside the factories: MINOFA, the state wheat plant that tripled capacity to 32,000 tonnes per year. The Kamsila rice processing facility running 400 tonnes per day — top ten in Africa. SOBTO, inaugurated November 2024, processes six tonnes of fresh Burkinabè tomatoes per hour under the local brand A'diaa. AFRIDIA Industries turns Ananas du Faso pineapples into export-grade concentrates. The SN ANATRANS cashew factory in Bobo-Dioulasso — over 90% women in its workforce — targets 5,000 tonnes of cashew apple processing annually.

For protein, Traoré built Faso Kosam, a decentralized state dairy network, and flew 710 pregnant Brazilian cows into the Loumbila breeding station to kill a $50 million annual powdered milk import bill. The Poulet du Faso — a homegrown crossbreed hitting 1.1kg in 10 weeks — replaced French and Belgian broiler chick imports after Traoré banned them entirely in October 2025.

On the ground, 4,600 agricultural VDPs, soldiers, combat engineers, and inmates from the Baporo penitentiary center are all farming under the Presidential Initiative — a mandate that turned every military base, university, and public institution into a food production unit.

At the center of it all: a billion-dollar canal designed to connect Bagré, Soum, and Samandéni into a single hydro-highway — permanent water moving from south to north, opening millions of Sahel hectares to year-round cultivation. The Sahel's answer to the Nile.
