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!

The women are real conjoined twins, yes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abby_and_Brittany_Hensel
Edit:
"Obviously right away we understand that we are going to get one salary because we're doing the job of one person," says Abby.
"As maybe experience comes in we'd like to negotiate a little bit, considering we have two degrees and because we are able to give two different perspectives or teach in two different ways."
As a woke fact checker I rate this meme to be 
Fuck… off…
? I'm confirming that it's real. The "woke fact checker" part was meant with a layer of irony.
And I was adding a dash of sarcasm.
All good, just hard to tell tone over a written medium sometimes.
These are the polite exchanges I missed from early Reddit days. Glad to see online manners improve once people get off a toxic bot fueled propaganda machine. :)
Could be worse. One of them could be trans.
Joking obviously. But imagine the arguments over gender presentation.
Why joking? That did actually happen: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lori_and_George_Schappell
CW: Deadnaming, transphobia
George, formerly known as Dori and Reba, came out as a transgender man in 2007. Guinness World Records declared Lori and George to be the first set of conjoined twins to have different gender identities. Their family did not accept George's identity, as evidenced by his obituary and his mother's obituary; he was deadnamed and referred to as a daughter in both.
I had no idea.
That family fucking sucks. So sorry for them.
Unironically this:
I hope they take turns at work and let the other one chill
They're fifth grade teachers, so yeah, probably not
Only class in the district with a good teacher to student ratio.
