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.

Presents lists, gets arrested anyways.
How do you think this will play out? They’re either going to get caught with it, or it’s useless when the regime collapses as they’ll likely be mostly dead anyways. It’s useless as long as the regime remains, and keeping it is a time bomb waiting to go off, and not just for you, you’re a risking your family and friends too.
This message has been brought to you but Team Learned Helplessness.
When the regime falls, maybe do everyone a solid and stay the fuck out of the way.
No you just seem to have rose coloured glasses.
How many people do you expect to be left to charge? They are suddenly going to realize they are the bad guys and lay their weapons down? Is this your assumption?
Also, you think they are just going to ignore the person complacency? Oh it’s great you killed a bunch of people and want to finger your neighbours, why didn’t you stop them during it?
This isn’t going to turn out positive for anyone trying to collect this information, unless you’re high up. The peons are just gonna get fucked in every situation.
The Trump regime is in the middle of committing and attempting to accelerate crimes against humanity.
I anticipat the fall being anything but rosy.
After the regime falls, the people left to charge will be entirely dependent on how well American citizens scrape ICE agent data.
No. I think that they'll haphazardly try to cover their tracks. See their current insistence on opacity to verify this.
I can't follow the rest of your word salad. But my prediction is that the smart ones will throw the dumb ones under the bus to save their own skin.
You seem to be stuck with the mistaken belief that the Trump regime is going to stay in power for a long time.
You also don't seem to grasp the concept that one can compile evidence and sit on it, until such time that it can be used to help get justice.
If you were an ICE agent, you'd be the one thrown under the bus, because you'd be oblivious to your coworkers collecting dirt on you.
