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
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) 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

Trump is the political equivalent of those spam/scam emails with intentional misspellings designed to filter out folks who won't ultimately fall for the scam (gizmodo.com)

those spam/scam emails[sic] with intentional misspellings

.... like 'emails'? Do your 'emails' have 'datas' in them?

What are you on abuot

they're saying "email" is the plural of "email," and saying "emails" is like saying "datas" as the plural of "data," which is weird since "emails" is definitely valid.

You mean ‘datums’?
