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 don't mean to be all "woe is me" but damn it really drives home the loneliness when literally the only texts I ever get are trying to get me to vote for some shit. or like, texts from my cell carrier trying to get me to upgrade my phone

and the only texts I ever send are just "STOP" lmao

If it helps any, you're not suffering alone. The only texts I get are directly from and for whatever job I happen to have, or an appointment I've made somewhere. I've tried starting and keeping some texting going with a couple of people I grew up with as close friends, it never lasts more than a few days, and then over a year passes in silence. It has happened several times already and I've given up on trying any more.
