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.

Nah, CBT is just your good old Cock and Ball Torture. I don't think there is any evolutionary advantage, source: I've never seen any other species perform it (trust me I've looked). But I do think some men pay for it rather than paying for therapy so there's that.
they kinda slap tho https://youtu.be/cgGEwqaZLKc

I was really trying to wrap my head around CBT as a kink and came up totally blank.
Just imagine how horny you could be right now if you changed your thinking just a little bit.
conditioning is already a part of many kinks, like discipline, corruption, or hypno
I don't think balls follow a "whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger" rule
I should've used my alt account for this
My man Crassius thinks of writing another play and seeks inspiration.
Who’s kink is therapy?
My therapy is kink.
Nah, I stay in shape via traditional cock pushups.
That' definitely not hiw evolution works. Evolution is not something you "train". If for example you wanted to make the human race more muscular in future generations sending them to the gym would NOT work, you would have to literally cull the weak yound and old to force a genetic adaptation to future offspring.
I'm not saying cbt itself is evolution, I saying the kink for it evolved. So eg. some random freaks are into cbt - they end up with tougher balls and are less likely to lose their ability to have children due to some accident - they have a few more children on average and so on... until its a regular kink to protect men's balls.
