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.

It's getting to the point where I can't spend under $100 anymore for the week. I remember when $50 was like 5-6 days worth of stuff for a single person like me. Thanks Drumpf.

It's crazy in the UK too. About 15+ years ago I could eat for £15 a week fairly decently. Now to be able to eat properly it would require more like £50 a week if you want enough vegetables and some basic protein sources. That doesn't even include extras like toilet paper.
