Chatting Topic: Namechange edition (self.realtesla)

So I haven't made this month's "Gigathread" or "Megathread", and I realized that perhaps some rebranding is in order. The Gigathread and Megathread topics were for grossly off-topic discussion and community building. I'm not sure if people "get" it here in Lemmy. But there's a wide variety of off-topic conversations that can be helpful to this community.

Maybe it'd be helpful if I posted some examples. The general rule is that "a little bit off-topic" can certainly make a new post. But extremely off-topic posts should be isolated here to just chat with everyone else.

A minor rule change: I'll be recycling the "Chatting" topic more slowly here on out. Its going to be a soft-rule: when discussion seems dead (ie: when there hasn't been a post in several days) AND at least a month has past, I'll update the "Chatting" topic to help keep things fresh. Its important to have an outlet like this topic to have this community feel more like a community. Off topic, tangential, and other such topics are very welcome here. Having a dedicated spot for more casual interactions is important for any community.

There's been a big shift rightward by all the idiots he looks up to, and it's working on feeble minded people with no morals compass of their own. This is why Musk took to it like a duck to water- it had that old comfortable feeling of African racism from his childhood, a bunch of moronic conspiracy theories about people hating the rich, and an easy way to deamonise the left wing politicians that truly had left leaning politics rather than just repeating talking points to get campaign finances.

Basically, he's everybody's least favorite uncle during any holiday. Already a dumbass, and became much worse.
