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 and the TOS
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.

That's the cool thing about language , if enough people do something for long enough then it starts being right
Out of everything you were ever taught, it's the only thing that works by Tinkerbell rules. If enough people believes something is real. It's real.
Otherwise we'd all still be talking like William Shakespeare
You're saying we're led by the cool kids.
That's so fetch.
Forsooth, verily, and widdershins
I mean, money works like that too. It's not like we value money because paper is rare, we just all collectively agreed to use it to make exchanges easier
Well you're not wrong, but we used to have the gold standard, and that worked because of the rarity of gold.
Also most "paper money" isn't actually paper, but cotton/plastic
Errybody do it thier own way, I supose. :-P
Personally, my grandma mistakes spilling on the intern net.
I read this in Meatwad's voice lol
Life is better when you read everything in Meatwad's voice.
I knew I couldnt be alone.
So far it’s an simple way to detect people omline an ai/bot will try harder to have no mistakes
