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.

He is also a spineless worm
How so? I don't know anything about him personally
People are mad because he denounced Gass when Gass made comments regarding Trump's would be assassin missing, but security at concerts are trash and it's reasonable the the both of them could be shot by a Trump supporter.
Ye, but then again the band split because of it. They'll probably reform and make a dumb song about it in the future, but still.
Shot by a Trump supporter?!? At a concert in Australia?!? I think that's a bit of a stretch, mate.
I think they meant in the future, not in that particular concert lol
...do you think they'll never leave Australia? Don't they both live in America?
Why did I read that in an Australian accent?
I must be going troppo!
That's not their only tour stop or do you expect the two to apply for citizenship? Also, Trump in an international cult leader at this point. Someone could cobble together a zipgun anywhere and sneak it close.
Made comments? He blew out a candle and wished for them not to miss Trump with a bullet. Literally calling for the death of someone else. Wishing death on anyone is a pretty shit thing to do.
I wish Putin nothing but death and misery. I guess, I am a real shitty person.
I wish Trump and Putin could somehow be used to bash each other to death, simultaneously. So, I guess I'm as bad as you.
Was there any psychological benefit to Italians to see Mussolini hang, and spit on his corpse?
I'd say it helped reduce the impression that Italians supported who he was and what he represented.
Misery and death. If he gets death first, he'd miss out on the misery.
Still sad that hitler died on a workplace accident?
I wish for Trump what Trump wishes for his "enemies".
Nah dog, not when they want and created policy that causes people you love to die.
Yes, that's what happened. But we're not talking about Gass, we're talking about Jack Black and his reaction to that which was cancelling the tour.
Which in my opinoin was a perfectly reasonable response given the recent attempt on Trump's life, as well as the threats that had already been made about specific Taylor Swift concerts.
I can't even imagine the amount of death and rape threats that they and their families received after those comments. Imagine leaving for a world tour amidst that.
I guess fuck him for not wanting his fans to get shot up at a concert by some psychopath.
Because of cowards like you. I have to take my shoes off at the airport for zero reason other than to obey.
Wishing for the death of verifiably evil people is perfectly fine, healthy, and normal.
Why not having them locked up and prosecuted? All those rabid MAGAs calling for death and destruction are deranged, I think we agree. Who gets to decide when it's appropriate to assassinate politicians in our democracy?
When they're inches away from regaining the highest office in the country, pretty much anyone, because it clearly won't be the people who's job it is. Who talk endlessly about how he's a very real threat to the very fabric of our country, then do fuck all to protect their citizens, allowing years to pass before his very public and overt crimes are even addressed.
No. Jack O'Neill shot Apophis in the face like 4 times. Luke Skywalker ended Darth Vader's reign. Captain Janeway demolished the Borg. Biden and Garland allowed a domestic terrorist and real-life cartoon villain to campaign for president, and he may actually win. Fuck. That. At this point I don't give a flying fuck how "complex" real life is. He needs to go, just like Apophis.
Except for a literal and admitted wannabe despot who would have made Osama Bin Laden go "hey man, not cool."
