Showerthoughts

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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've been a member on a website that's quite well known in my country for over 15 years. It's like adult Facebook where people post nudes and it's all free.

Recently however people have more and more started using it for advertising their OF and what I find funny/interesting is how I can tell most of these profiles simply by looking at their pictures as they always have this certain "onlyfans look" to them.

I've never used OF myself but the feeling I get from these profiles is that it's way too obvious that they're doing it for the money. There's a completely different vibe to someone's profile who just wants to show off because it's exciting to them.

If there's a pink stick coming out, its 100% onlyfans.

That fucking pink stick has ruined so many otherwise good videos.

For me, the first telltale sign is showing face. The second is the colorful background.

Explain more, what is this pink stick? I'm out of the loop.

It's a reference to a specific Internet connected adult toy called a lush3. Cam Girls and only fans people connect them to their chats so the fans can control how much it vibrates. Since it's Wi-Fi connected it has a tail that sticks out to improve the connection.

To add to that, most of the time cam girls don't even turn the thing on, and do an incredibly over exaggerated reaction to the sound the chat makes when someone gives a tip, and videos of this get posted unironically to any nsfw forum/board/sub/community, as if it is high quality enjoyable content.
