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: 1

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
    • If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

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.

People often shit themselves when they die... Do vampires when they get turned from alive to undead?? This is important lore to consider

Since vampires no longer digest food it would seem that evacuating their bowels would be a practical event during their conversion. I agree this lore should be reflected upon more.

It's actually the incentive for new vampires to be made. During the turning process food is curtled and turned into a special type of feces Wine liquor. Patron vampires then spend the turning process Licking the rich secretions from the vassal vampires anus.

Really the whole thing is an intimate and beautiful process.

Why would you write something like this?

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

I have never wanted to un-read something so bad in my entire life. That's in my head now, and it's all your fault, and I curse you forever because of it.

Please dude can you don't?? I had no wish to read such foul words today.

So what you're saying is, vampires eat ass?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

My friend if you live long enough you'll eat ass too!

It is definitely covered by Anne Rice.

I was gonna say I thought I remembered something about this in one of the books

Why would it be "practical" to do it during the conversion?

They could just go to the toilet like normal people (before or after).

I mean, I don't plan to eat anymore until tomorrow, therefore it's practical that I shit myself now?
