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!

Cause I do...

(thank god, most of the things I lose are just either a walkable distance away or funnily in my house, where they have stayed)

I should probably get some better sleep so I have the energy to better nip this habit of mine's in the bud

I'm sorry that happened to you friend, but I do love the phrasing, as morbid as it may be. It gave me a good chuckle. I hope you're managing okay. That's got to be tough to deal with.

I've got a non-cancerous tumor in one of my temporal lobes so I understand on some level at least how it feels. For me it mostly just means I don't remember a lot of my childhood (I'm not missing out on much, it wasn't great) and go blind when my blood pressure spikes though rather than my short-term memory. It sucks always having to wonder whether your deficiencies are because of your maimed brain or your unmaimed brain. That's the worst part for me.
