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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Extremely not-fun fact: collectively, humanity currently produces more than enough food for every person. But a huge part of it is either wasted or inaccessible by people that need them, which usually results in them not going to anyone and being wasted, which is why we still have food scarcity.

Bold of you to assume that "that side" can / will read.

(\s btw, as I'm sure you guessed but others may not have so... just in case:-D)

I’m on that side and I read. Quick list all the books you’ve read in the past year, then I’ll show you mine.

What side are you on? Why are you challenging online strangers to a pissing contest?

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I’m sorry I thought I was responding to a challenge. Or am I just supposed to let my people be disparaged like this?

And you know what side.

Yeesh, you're a very abrasive person.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Someone was insulting me. How do you not see that?
