(self.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
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.

Some planes water
I find comfort in knowing there are more planes in the sea than there are submarines in the sky.
There are at least two whales though..

I would argue that the one that exploded over DC last month had almost certainly ceased to be a plane by the time it hit the ground.

That sounds problematic, engineering-wise
As long as you are able to clap the plane probably landed okay
If they can still clap when the plane lands, they will.
