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!

It's one of my favorite "Bone Apple Tea"s. I like to picture little guerilla fighters inside the brain. It kind of works.

On a somewhat similar subject, I called myself a "non-binary individual" in a relevant comment on YouTube one time, and this clown tried to respond by saying something like:

"You mean mentally ill individual??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ha owned"

But they omitted the word "ill" by mistake and said

"You mean mentally individual??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ha owned"

And it hit me in profound ways.

It's like he's saying that my mind has found peace in going against the cisheteronormative patriarchal norms of society's bigoted hivemind such as the gender binary, and that I am strong in being myself. I have gained true "mental individuality" that's disconnected from oppressive structures that the general population and corrupt government pushes. I am not a man or a woman. I am simply me, an individual who escaped from all the overwhelmingly supported influences that tell me that I have to be one of those or the other, and I thank this chud for his accidental validation.

That typo hit me so hard that I contemplated it as a band name even, but nah! Unless... 😳🎸
