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.

I can't really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by "both" sides of the spectrum. It's just something I find interesting.

Now you've convinced me! I really ought to have been the bigger man when my mom called me in the middle of the night to tell me that Trump's a martyr like Jesus and that the Democrats are performing demonic baby-eating rituals inside underground tunnels, and just let her keep screaming about me being a brainwashed woke communist because we just have little differences and we all need to get along.

Haha, nope. I want scorched earth on every one of those conspiracy nut fuckers holding right-wing parties around the balls, since they went after my family with their brainrot. I don't give a shit that a handful of people exist who don't explicitly support Jewish Space Laser Marge or Venmo Bribes Clarence, because y'all still vote lock step to keep these crazy loons around because Roe v. Wade is worth killing for $300 extra on next year's tax return.

Is it miserable?

Having your entire identity based on a political team?

Constantly being angry and thinking the worst about your peers?

Because it SOUNDS miserable.

Probably not as miserable as it is to have to spend all your energy pretending to not see how your political ideas have fully doomed humanity to drive itself extinct
