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.

Copper slugs preform just as well or better than lead slugs. The only draw back is cost.
The way your comment is worded says you don't know shit about firearms.
Which part? Is there no lead exposure from firing guns?
There's no lead in gunpowder. Much anno is jacketted in copper, or is solid copper. So the only time there'd be lead exposure from firing a gun is if you were fring lead bullets, and even then you're exposed to tiny amounts.
What the EU is concerned about is soil contamination. The folks shooting the guns don't have to worry about it, but thousands of people shooting millions of rounds, some percent of which have lead that gets exposed when the bullet hits something, and that's all going into the soil... that's an environmental hazard. It's also a little more of a worry for indoor ranges, but I haven't seen one in the US that didn't have positive pressure air filtration in years, so it's not an issue there, either.
