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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

one + is enough actually, unless you're making fun of the concept of inclusion.

The silly part is that the abbreviation keeps growing longer and more cryptic each time I look somewhere else. Can't keep up with all the things that are a sexual orientation now.

That is not to say those people shouldn't have the right to be and live however they wish to be, just that I can't be bothered to keep track of the lingo.

That's the idea behind the + - anyone trying to put more things "up front" is really just distracting from the point that we're all in this building together

This may sound radical, but listing every gender and sexual minority is more than a simple acronym can realistically handle.
