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.

Absolutely.
Just don't criticize Joe Biden or the knives come out. ๐ณ
haha, politics in general are just annoying to talk about cause neither side wants to listen to what the other has to say. But I'm pretty sure there's a politics community you can criticize the president in.
Lemmy has historically been pretty far left so I'm not sure where you're getting that from. People have been criticizing Biden here forever, but maybe just not from the perspective that you're used to.
@FlashMobOfOne I skimmed your comment history and my god you're obnoxious
I appreciate that.
