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!

can't abandon family, blood is blood, im not white
if they abandon me when they find out im degen, thats on them
Retaining toxic family members no matter how miserable they make you, your partner and your children is my favourite thing about brown culture ๐ฅฐ
Abandon your shitty family members, or don't, I don't know your situation, but I do know my partner's, and my god, this brings me to the second type of liberalism
So many family members who are just hated by everyone but for some reason tolerated, accommodated just to keep on traumatising people
inb4 my family is not an org
The blood arguments are so stupid and arbitrary.
I'm not white either; but I can't keep or claim the abusers that spent 18 years fucking up my mental. Won't keep or claim them. Blood of the covenant is thicker than water of the womb; and boy, did my mother LOVE using the corrupted version of that phrase to justify family being 'the only thing that mattered'. Nah, not me. Not when holding on bleeds me more than letting go.
