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.

He's allergic to cats, and cats usually sleep on the couch.....

Oh man that dude is a heterosectional predator, for real

I've never seen so many people just ignore the double entendre of this whole conversation.

I doubt JD Vance cares about pleasuring women though, so he isn't interested in eating them out

That's what the Haitians are for.

I see we're doing some better numbers over here in showerthoughts!

Just seemed like a more appropriate fit. As I'm sure we've all thought about good ol' JD eating house pets whilst in the shower. When we aren't thinking about sultry couches, anyways.

Of course, we already know he’s an illegal alien from space. He only married his wife because she already had children he could claim were his own. In truth, he sleeps in a separate room with the chaise lounge he’s currently with.

RFK wants to feed your pet to his falcon

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

He's mad that they won't let him fuck their sofas.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

It's always projection with these people so you may be on to something here.

I take it you've never seen what kind of damage and desecration a cat can do to a couch?

Don't ask him about the fate of his first love. Its still a tenders spot. No amount of upholstery will remove that damage.

JD Vance is a closeted childless cat lady pass it on

The cats take valuable couch space

No. And he's not just mad at cat ladies.

This whole idea that people with biological children are more invested in the future of the country than those without kids is just a thinly disguised dog whistle that's firmly rooted in misogyny and homophobia.

This is a line that theoretically doesn't precisely and specifically just target homosexuals, there's also "collateral damage" to infertile couples and those who choose to go child-free. And there's a sufficient number of those people that it serves as the basis for plausible deniability. That they specifically call out "cat ladies" fully reflects the misogynistic aspects of it. But make no mistake, this is undeniably a basis they might use to deny rights to the LGBT+ community.

It is an Ohio delicacy. That and chili on spaghetti

He must have been dumped by someone that had a cat and it broke his ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I'm a way... Yes. He's such a creeper none of the ladies will let him eat their cats.
