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: 1
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
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- 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.

Then maybe say what you mean instead of telling people who are responsible that they aren't.
I did say what I mean, your lack of comprehension and inability to ask clarifying questions is a you problem.
That's good. Blame other people for not asking questions when you say the opposite of what you mean. You're so dark and mysterious.
Everyone else gets it, why can't you? You're in charge of your own education.
They don't get it or you wouldn't be saying it.
You're like those "antiwork" morons that claim they want to work and then act like victims when people laugh in the face of their preposterous positions and don't understand why their intentions are being misinterpreted.
And those "defund the police" morons who are equally confused as to why no one understands them.
It's like you can't read, let alone comprehend context and nuance, and then you call everyone else an idiot because you're too slow to keep up. Keep up sunshine, what you're pushing for is what we already intuit as bare minimum.
I can read just fine, honey. You can't write the opposite of what you mean and then expect your readers to "context and nuance" their way into your brain to read your mind.
You're that person coming last in the race who shouts at the person in first place who's about to lap you, 'Keep up, honey!"
