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:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
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 don't have to imagine you, you're right here.
You are still mad because your country is ran by a pedophile? Nothing China does will ever be more evil than the USA anymore. It's game over, deal with it. No amount of anti-China propaganda will make up for the thousands of innocent people you have killed in Latin America and the Middle East. Not even the Great Leap or whatever.
Your whole purpose and existence in this site is to spread American Exceptionalism. You are the exact same as these other users:

You three spend most of your time talking shit about China and subtly excusing the USA, it's pathetic. But keep it up I say. You actually increase support for China with this dumb friction you give to people, lol. Look at how far it has gotten us, compared to 20 years ago, when people actually used to respect voices like yours, but not anymore.
100% agree, lemmy in general really has bought the "china bad" propaganda
China literally helped reelect that fucking pedophile, so clearly there is something they have done to be more evil.
Ah, you seem to have a problem with reading comprehension.
Perhaps you want to try again?
(the whole "I know you are but what am I" thing stopped working sometime around high school btw, but it was a cute callback)
