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!

A family member begrudgingly became okay with the war in Iraq after Colin Powell's UN speech, so any time they betray any faith in the U.S. State Department's opinions or warnings I remind them of that. Fortunately they admit having said that at the time - I figure most people prefer to suppress memories of swallowing outright lies.
