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!

I've had an awful few days and am feeling very unwell. Please distract me. I love creepy true stories, especially glitch-in-the-matrix type stuff.

EDIT: Thanks for all the stories, I'm enjoying them!

Predators tend to be protective, but all depends on the context. Dudu avoided us, perhaps he understood that we weren't aware of his presence. The jungle makes the whole "camouflage" absurdly effective. The difficult part is that we were at least 100m away from the nearest river and Jaguars tend to flee towards those so the cat took a time until it could calm down I guess.

Pumas, in other hand, will at least try to fuck you up.
