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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.

Anyone remember the internet before trump. Good times, thanks again america

I wish I knew how to program so I could make a browser extension like ublock that blocks Trump content. I'm fucking tired of seeing his face everywhere and hearing all the dumb shit pouring out of his mouth and contaminating everything.

I know all I need to know about him and who I support politically. I'm so done with him trying to monopolize everyones minds and time. Get out of my life you fucking lich.

I swear there's an extension for that

I hope it would block the unfunny Trumper parody accounts that poke around on Lemmy

I think a better one is if anyone remembers the internet before the Russian trolls/bot farms invaded all the social media sites. You wouldn't hear about Dementia DonOLD because at this point he'd be irrelevant or in jail.
