Showerthoughts

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:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.

It's the perfect opportunity, how isn't every single NSFW poster (OC or not) spamming relevant things? I've seen two posts about it, none of which were actually fitting.

My theory is that there is no organic NSFW content creation on the fediverse, and that everything is rbots, scrapers, spammers who don't actually engage with the platform, etc.

If nobody who creates NSFW content ever interacts with lemmy/piefed directly, they won't know to try to lean into this trend that doesn't exist elsewhere.

I clicked because "nsfw" but I have no idea wtf I'm reading. I've read the comments a hundred times and OP at least one time. Where's my sexual gratification.

What's this about soapy tits?

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

A weirdly surreal set of memes about thinking about your SO having soapy tits while you're off doing other things.

Don’t worry. Soapy balls come after soapy tits.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Soapy balls are boring. I Iove my tiddies soapy and my balls dirty.
