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.

So much for that nest egg :(
Luckily there is someone, I believed based in Philly, who is well versed in bird law to defend them.
Accidentally? Play some tune near a Jay and it'll soon sing the tune intentionally.
Meanwhile, Steller's jays:
Although the ones near my house can imitate a red-tailed hawk call pretty well when they want to scare the other birds from the feeder so it can have it to itself, but that's the only thing I've heard them do besides their ordinary calls.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

We were having issues with our security system at my work one week, which resulted in the alarm going off a lot. For the next several days we had magpies that were mimicking the alarm's tone and rhythm almost perfectly.
Pretty sure they meant without human influence
A 100% chance to play the sound of a car alarm in my neighborhood.
My parrot whistles the theme to Ed, Edd and Eddy 👌 does that count?
