Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

This is me, exactly. We're leaving the country in the next 6-8 months and can't justify selling it just to buy another car that we'll then sell soon after. In the meantime, I get shit for "being a nazi" despite being a leftist. Good times.
Honestly, I love the car. We haven't had any issues with it, it drives great, the features are nice, and the energy efficiency is top notch. I wish Elno would step down as CEO and/or die so we could take it with us, but I doubt he will.
Love my m3 in the us, but I am so glad when we moved that I bought a plug in hybrid instead. It's a piece of shit in comparison and crazy expensive, but it feels cleaner.
Now I just wish I bought a Volvo plug in hybrid.
Ditto for me for most things here. Fun fact also is that I was initially motivated to buy the car for environmental reasons and so that fascist Russia wouldn't benefit from me buying and burning gasoline.
I bought it used so technically Musk didn't get money from me. And by keeping and driving it, he keeps not getting money from me (unless something breaks that needs parts, I guess).
Great car, weird CEO. If his recent successes continue, perhaps he'll off himself or something. Or perhaps the shareholders will finally grow a spine and boot him instead of giving him billions.
