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 was my life before I became homeless (which I did by choice). I didn’t ride the bus until I was like 22. Had my first job at 25. Never dated anyone. Never went to a concert, any kind of social gathering (as an adult and by myself). I did not see a fucking movie in theaters by myself until I was 25. Shit left me fucking broken. Oh yeah I was homeschooled too, and even though it was still the state curriculum my parents were dumb and I got away with not doing anything. I actually think I might be intellectually disabled, or at least stunted from never fucking reading, and having to re-learn shit like What is a fucking noun? My dumbshit parents believed I was so bad at math that my mother had to hand-hold me, to the extent of actually taking the same community college math courses with me.
