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 love the taste!

I'm also addicted to the substance.

Look at this guy, he actually likes the taste instead of just being addicted to the substance!

There are good alcohol free beers now. I've been enjoying Athletic Brewing Company

Athletic golden is great.

[–] SpaceNoodle 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm glad that Athletic exists, but it's actually pretty mediocre compared to the NA beers that smaller classic breweries are starting to put out.

I wish our local brewery would do this. I love hanging out there, but I'm not a huge root beer fan and that's the only non-alcoholic beverage they have.

My uptake definitely increased significantly starting in early November 2024.

I'm a sucker for amaros, absinthes, and negronis.

All due respect, I cannot speak for your situation, but neither does your situation for everyone else who likes to sip alcohol.

I cannot stand the taste of cinnamon or licorice, but I don't believe addiction is required to be able to enjoy them.

I think you're reading a bit too much into my statement.

[–] latenightnoir -4 points 4 days ago

Not at all, which is why I specified this in mine.

I am merely working with what's been given.
