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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I mean, personally I am not here to discuss politics or get the news. I'm here for memes and nerding out. All that real-world shit doesn't vibe. I wanna laugh.

Exactly. I want to be able to mention the fashion lizard, the bisexual twink doctor, and his husband the suffering Irishman... And for people to understand who I'm talking about.

I agree, the filters here are great. I don't mind the real world stuff but I filter your instance because I don't want to see furry porn.

(Not trying to be snarky, your kinks are not any of my business, hence the filter. My comment is meant to be genuine.)
