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

You should take baths.
Good thing the moon landing is real then, huh?
This is such an oversimplification. Both are, honestly. Because your parents lied to you, you now thing anything they say is a lie? And now you're trying to apply the same logic to global society?
Let's not even get into what you consider to be a lie, that's another entire Pandora's box.

What's that right cross ?
it's a knuckle sandwich
Yes, he looked very upset.

The two claims about Santa and the tooth fairy are independent of eachother. Just because one isn't real, doesn't mean the other isn't.
If one god isn't real, doesn't mean they all aren't real. You should learn the basics of logic and fallacies. This is pretty simple stuff.
The Moon landing is definitely real though.
