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:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
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.

Plot twist: Hitler was actually your son and become like that because of a missing fatherly figure
Then there's a LOT of Hitlers in the making from absent fathers, children of lesbians etc. If missing a fatherly figure is what makes a person a nazi.
Unpopular opinion.
Humanity is going to generate tyrants until we vaccinate everyone with a sense of morality and even then, we’re going to have problems with dark empaths starting shit as long as we think child soldiers can be saved.
I don't believe it would prevent the holocaust though. If it wasn't him, it would have been someone else.
Just like now, if it wasn't Trump, the Heritage Foundation would have found another fuck to carry out their bidding. Fascism is a systemic issue.
I wonder what that other timeline is like where that dumbass kid actually aimed correctly at the rally.
Would have been cool if Nikki Haley were the nominee and there would have been a female president no matter what
Dude, don't you think we tried that? The first time we got Schickelcutlerstalin for some reason who killed everyone with his out off-control biological weapons. Then for some fucking reason we got a fucking snake hitler!
And now we are all out of time-travel juice and locked down in a reality where hitler lived AND an orange is also hitler. Well, I had a little bit left,but a giant testicle came along, kicked me in my testicles,shouted "you want fucking Mother Theresa torturing everyone to death" and disappeared.
Now I am stuck here. Fuck.
The real criticism of this plan is that whether you assassinate Hitler or just prevent his birth, it doesn't solve the societal problems that led to the world wars. Hitler wouldn't have happened, but the Germans would still feel snubbed by the outcome of the Great War
This is how we get the red alert timeline. Killing Hitler only makes a stronger enemy
"Heetler.... ees... out of de way."

REform LINE! Quick MARCH!
What’s even the point man, the world will still find a way to shit on us
