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

Is it really cannibalism if the meat wasn't actually from a person? ๐Ÿค”

They say you are what you eat, so you eat what you are. Therefore you are a cannibal

Regarding your username, if you log into lemmy with normal characters, does it let you or do you have to use the emoji letters every time?

[โ€“] 56_@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

The emoji letters are just a display name. The actual username, which you log in with, uses normal characters.

[โ€“] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 1 year ago

It's just the display name. Usernames can't use special characters.
