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.

I completely agree on principal.
But also think that the rule of Lemmy is that all algorithms end at porn.
But it’s our porn and has unique surroundings of anime, politics, and Dutch.
I don't rlly wanna see straight porn (no hate, just not my thing xd) and honestly, I was in a pretty good spot. Then someone told me I was scrolling active instead of hot and OH MY- that's a lot of porn
All good in the hood.
I live in /All sorted by New.
Many reasons, but I just like… seeing the whole gooey blob and sticking my hand in it.
That's how I do it too, but after reading your "hand in the blob" comment, perhaps I'll start wearing gloves.
