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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

MODERATORS
No, they're asking to do one thing and using a slogan that sounds completely bat-shit insane.
In East Grand Rapids, there is a single service for emergency responders who are trained as police / fire fighters, and paramedics so only one vehicle shows up. Consolidating them instead of defunding them actually improved things.
Woah, slow down Hitler. No. Defund the police is not the same message as Reorganize Emergency Services. :p
