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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I was playing DnD with my friends, but unfortunately we are retarded get distracted easy so the whole game we would move nothing.

We decided to remove some of the habilities rolls in orders to make it faster, and it worked. The game was finally moving, and the storyline was progressing like a normal game.

This was all about 2 months ago, nowa few days ago they wanted them back, when I started asking why, they would say shit like:" My character is better now"....

Bro just me an the DM where like...but we did it for the time you fucks. Don't you remember?.....

Either way, we voted they won, we played 3 hrs of game and nothing happened we did almost nothing.

GUESS WHAT, we ended up back to o removing some rolls..... Dude they just didn't remember, and that was an 2months ago

They aren't specially stupid, most of them are average intelligence , but they forget.

I'm afraid that so has America, and we end up with this cunt as president.....fuck me

I think what they're saying is that Americans don't pay attention and forgot how terrible the Trump presidency was because it's been a few years. Most people think that "we're better now" and any major issues have abated without understanding that nothing has fundamentally changed. Because of all that, Trump will win the election. The DnD portion of the post is just what got OP to think about this.

Sad thing is that there's merit to the argument. It's the old trope of "Americans have short memories."

I think Trump will win the election because of manipulation through targeted social media activities, if not direct manipulation of the results, but that's just me.
