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.

Idk one side wants to enslave, murder, and rape. The other does not.
Let's just be friends as they take away my rights and everyone I love rights away, we shouldn't be enemies as they hunt down and murder someone for "existing"
Maybe we shouldn't be friends with the enemy and fight against the regime?
This is one of the was Nazis came into power, by manipulating the mass thinking "oh we should all be friends" and now look what happened.

There aren't only two sides to every issue. Thinking like that is limiting.
Seeing people hold this kind of views is fucking depressing.
The truth?
Lol what is the truth LMAO 🤣
That the US right defends slavery, murder, and rape?
Oh my god, you honestly believe that.
I feel so sorry for your fellow men
They literally do- idk what to tell you besides:
No one is more confused about reality than the ones claiming to know "the truth" Some even name their social media platforms like that.
solidarity means solidarity. other working class people are not your enemy (re: 1984). the all or nothing mindset accomplishes nothing besides closing your mind off to the plights and perspectives of others.
-also trans and disabled
Advocating for OP, that's the learnt way they see how they can become comfortable.
As an autistic person, wholly agreed. It is like people are actively trying to isolate and dehumanize us autistic folks.
