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!

Isn't it super cool when you put people off by repeatedly expressing how grateful you are that they opted to talk to you and what a great person they are
And then you get to feel embarrassed for being so effusive! Who needs emotional regulation anyway?
Make sure you don’t act too human I guess
Love this for us
It is such crap that actually feeling your feelings that way is so stigmatised...
Not stigmatized here comrade
🥲
And it’s such an easy problem to solve in theory (find people like you), but I’m starting to think finding people like “you” is harder when you’re different from the average
Hm, almost like there would be less people different from a majority "average"
I have had to look a really long time to find anyone remotely similar to me which is annoying af
it probably doesn’t help that I pretend I am average (oh shit another defense mechanism)
Oh yeah,
people shouldn't have to do that, ideally! I gave it up myself, I barely mask anymore!
