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-----

Nor should you. Everything shitty in politics is not due to Trump, but he sure normalized a lot of bad things that weren't a thing before him. If conservatists from 80s had been dropped into a Trump rally in 2020, they would have been extremely confused.

They would have been, but then they would have RAN to their closets to get their white robes and start cheering.
