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.

How about you remember we all pretty much know that?
This is just the same old strategy of continously refocusing a conversation about the huge amounts of waste the modern global economy creates on a moral failure of individuals to recycle.
Like waves arms at the unfurling chaos dragon in the sky what does that matter at this late stage of entanglement with weaponized and proud ignorance? Go give someone you love a genuine compliment, that is actually resisting in the way you think you are describing but you are not.
The only thing going to waste is, well, everything, plus people's brains. There's children starting school that don't know how to climb stairs now. I'm sure they know how to stare at an iPad though.
As far as the 'smart' vehicles, even if you don't drive one yourself, the moron on autopilot next to you is sleeping, fucking, or on their phone, trusting a chunk of silicon that they don't even understand to keep them, and you, safe..
Don't know how to climb stairs? What the hell are you talking about?
I think you might not understand the purpose of accessibility ramps.
