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!

The arts has one of the highest unemployment rates of any degree…and the price you give per painting is actually less than I would expect a person making a living off of their art would charge. A love of artists I know…are in IT. So though I understand your rant and how you perceive things to be…the grass is not always greener on the other side.
