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!

Lion? If you're a human in 40k you're more likely to be a mangy street cat forced to work in a factory processing other cats into fancy feast. Fuck yeah I'll be the Taus little pet over that, I can work in at a space turnip farm or something, maybe they'll give me little human treats.
