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.

This idea that most of the guys betting on sports every weekend are “pretty much breaking even” is wrong. Anyone can get lucky on a long shot, but as soon as you demonstrate the ability to get the real edge -- the one that understands that odds pricing is the only thing that matters, you are kicked out for life.

I always wondered how people could lose at sports betting when all you have to do is find MMA and wager on a Russian Muslim every time. I guess they ban you for being too good.

Like the video says, it doesn't matter if you can mathematically prove that your guy will win 90% of the time if it's priced like they will win 91%

Because the good ones (everyone trained by Abdulmanap basically) are always heavy favorites. You will have to risk large sums to win a pittance and all it takes is one loss to wipe out all your previous winnings.
