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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

The labour party is certainly flawed but you have to remember all they’ve given the people of the UK

You're going to have to fill me in, because it seems Keir took office and immediately declared that there is no money left in the banana stand.

They couldn't even restore funding to the H2 connection from Manchester to London, and that's shit that was already paid for.

True or not, it would take something very special for the new Labour government to have already of given things to the people of the UK, seeing as Parliaments only been back for 2 weeks, don't you think?

I mean, I have moderate expectations at best. I hope they don't make things worse but, at the same time, I also think they'll fall well short of achieving time travel.

Were you expecting time travel? I think you might be disappointed, if so.

It's crazy when something as simple as rejecting the Cass Report and ending the instructional abuse of Trans People is equated with SciFi tiers of impossibility.

I'm sure that made sense, followed on naturally from the conversation and didn't just sound like unhinged ranting and deflections in your head, at least.
