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!

This is probably a weird thread to drop this but it's relevant as any.
"nothing ever happens" is a silly argument. Things absolutely happen, all of the time. Is the cutting off of water and food from Gaza nothing? Are people forcibly drafted into fighting in the Ukraine proxy war nothing? Are the disabled friends and family dying from the deeply misanthropic Covid policies in the west nothing?
Things happen a LOT. They just haven't happened to you ("you" in this case being whatever person genuinely thinks nothing ever happens) yet so you think they can't happen to you. They will and it will probably suck ass.
It's a really dumb shitpost and we should honestly start deleting it.
