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!

Sometimes I wonder if it's a way to cope with decision paralysis and the fear of choosing wrong when there's no clear winner. Acting as a sort of tiebreaker and if you end up regretting your decision later you can say "wasn't my call, it was the stars.'"
