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.

I have to wear dresses on Wednesday’s and Thursday’s.
I disagree. Incredibly uncomfortable.
And I hate the sexual appropriation. Especially coerced.
Sorry you’re being forced to wear something you’re not comfortable in!
Men’s clothing is so limited in style options, especially in the US. It feels like there’s enormous pressure not to look “girly”. Even stuff that used to be normal for guys, like heels and hose, are unacceptably genderbending now. One of my favorite things about being a woman is feeling (relatively) free to dress how I want.
That’s kind of why I like women’s clothes. Men’s clothes are so boring and drab most of the time, but women’s are so vibrant and have cute/fun patterns.
