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!

"Did you know they just passed a law in Afghanistan that women aren't even talk to each other anymore?" - My Zionist cousin at Xmas dinner.
The rest of the family proceeded to spend half an hour ranting about how terrible Arabs are.

My father in law bought me a camo "Harris Walz" hat. I don't know why.
Last time I saw him we got into an argument about the genocide in Palestine, so probably he thinks I'm a Democrat. I think it's maybe a subtle jab about them losing, but he has in the past claimed to be a Democrat, despite vocally hating every Democrat besides Biden since I've known him. He had a little smirk when I opened it, so I'm sure he thinks it's some kind of dig.
I've been wearing it around the house and my partner laughs their ass off every time. So I'm getting more use out of it than the usual trash he gives me.
That’s a really funny gift, I’d wear the shit out of it.
Are you sure that's camouflage? Maybe a bird (perhaps an owl) pooped on it.
