    Well, your’s isn’t thinly veiled.

    Seriously though, a comm with such an open-ended theme will always attract stuff like this. You have choices.

    Also, isn’t a shower curtain a sort of thin veil, too?

    I made a post about how that annoys me and it was removed for being political lmao. Now I just report overtly political rants as political and they tend to stay up permanently. So, mods must like it regardless of rule 3.

      It had politics in the title. But yeah it could be argued that it was more meta, idk.

        I get why it was dumped. I took the advice from many of the comments and just report political stuff now.

    The whole internet seems to be heading that way. Everyone just screaming into the digital wind.

    It doesn’t have to be a smart comment.

    Sounds more like a rant and not a shower thought

    This would be a rant if it were slightly longer.

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

  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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.
