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!

Post your favorite liberal arts&craft cliches. I'll start with the one I'm partial to.

Without fail, some PMC or boring white guy will rock up with a sign like:

"this is literally the last thing I want to be doing. I am an endless well of lethargy, a monument to near-total apathy. Alas, the incompetence of those in charge has forced even my refined detachment into the streets. So here I stand, spiritually degraded, holding this sign like some kind of activist, a word that, until now, I associated with some kind of transient tempter of the youth. Can we hurry this up? every second spent protesting is a grotesque violation of my sacred right to passive despair, but alas, here we are, because apparently, even my cynicism has limits. Enjoy my grudging presence, you exhausting idealists."
