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

the other naughty word rhymes with Kobra Kai. how many other words are bleeped/what is the post for you?

I'm pretty sure it just hides whole posts with my filter words. I meant, I could read yours, because it's bleeped.

Do you mean API? Because more than just reddit has one. You do you, though, I guess.

At the moment, R***** and their API are popular words on Lemmy. If I were tired of reading those two words, we have the technology to have them omitted or censored on our individual screens.

That other people have APIs doesn't matter. There's presently a business who's API is annoying news. The guy would rather block too much rather than not enough.

If u/Zosu is censoring *** then asking him if *** is the word he **** ** use ** ***** kinda pointless. So I'm ****** ** *** at it obliquely.
