Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I've mentioned this before but there was a dude busking on a horn years ago outside where I worked and the amount of people that were like "if he put as much energy into finding a job as he did playing that trumpet..." almost made me snap.

He's making music, it's free music, and he's fucking good at it you ungrateful motherfuckers. This is his fucking job and he's doing a great job. I was so goddamn mad.

May those people suffer eternal anhedonia.

Also, finding a job is like gambling. I could do it for a day and get lucky, I could do it for several years and not.
