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

We never wash our belts, although they are the first thing we touch when leaving the toilet, even before we wash our hands (feddit.de)

Gotta be prepared with a tourniquet just in case!

Plus, most of us have flat grandpa asses that can't hold our pants up naturally.

I did not think of the first aid implications!

I remember seeing a post shooting interview with a victim and he was wishing that he wore multiple belts because he could have saved more people. It's kind of sad I couldn't find the video though... Too many shootings.
