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 didn't take the train but otherwise same
None of my friends went with me (one I'd usually go with is getting into the party scene this year instead), but I got a special pride bus pass and ran into someone I've done mutual aid work with selling their art. Genuinely a lot of cool radical queer people around (like pretty close to saying "death to america", not just anti-war activists or radlibs), it was very inspiring. I even bought some punk patches, though I don't know what I'll put them on. not sure I can pull off that kind of jacket, but also I kinda want to try it
There's so much more I want to share but I don't want to doxx myself any worse, its pretty city specific. suffice to say while my extremely shy ass didn't make a lot of new connections, I had a nice time soloing pride and fell more in love with my city/our queer community than ever.
