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.
Rules

I still believe in the idea of the open internet helping people connect and understand each other better. "Oh, that white guy also struggles with bills and loving his kids when they get to be too much", "oh, she's...", Etc.
I didn't expect the pAtRiOt front to find each other and start sucking each other's anus using the internet.
But, we've all been naive at one time or another in our lifetimes. Maybe things between us are getting better regardless of interference by the powers that be. Hey, we're now in the Fediverse, after all.
