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
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.

We used to get a brand of bagels here that were fully pre-sliced because they were in the same style of bag as a loaf of bread. So being fully sliced wasn't a problem, they weren't gonna shuffle around in that bag. Not sure why they aren't all like that. Also despite being fully sliced, they did still stick together a little bit while fresh. But it was only their humidity holding them together, once they got a bit stale the halves fell apart from eachother.
But yeah, not sure why that is so rare, I can't think of a downside to it that other manufacturers are trying to avoid. Maybe different types of bagels need different solutions? The ones we used to get were cinnamon raisin.
