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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

If you ask me, I'm upset no one picked up that this consideration was sexist and racist, although it is indeed the best choice for her to win, which reflects how bad US can't get over race and gender.

Why do you think about US politics in the shower?

Same reason we think about mistakes we made in high school while we're trying to go to sleep?

Some people get off to politics.

It haunts us like the spectre of death.

Wow yeah, I guess I never sat around thinking "How can I make myself more depressed"

what do you think about in the shower?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Not about politicians in my country, that is for sure. They're the last people I want to think about naked and soapy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

that's why i think about politics more broadly, not politicians.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Damn it now you got me thinking about naked and soapy politicians, now where's the mental eye bleach.

Maybe they just stare blankly at the floor, or read the ingredients on the shampoo bottle again for the 14 thousandth time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

true, that is an option. Staring at the floor is a solid way to spend a shower ngl
