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.

I think that's part of the psyop though. Creating situations that no matter what always look crazy. It's just the way it is and it's impossible to tell because the people that may have experienced it look crazy on purpose.
So it's like I know what your saying... And that's logical but the entire point of the psyop is to make create that logic. And I know that makes me sound crazy because that's the point of the psyop.
The issue with the line of thinking you're espousing is that without evidence, you're suggesting a more complicated cause than simple chance.
Like yes, it is possible that somebody or some group lined all of these things up in advance, but it's also entirely possible that there's a ton of noise out there on the internet and that those with nefarious interests just signal boost the noise that benefits them.
Think of all the millions of random schizo-posters out there. You just pick whichever makes the right sounds and boost them. No need to invent the crazy when there's crazy on tap.
Let's not call it psy op then. We need a new term. BS op maybe?
