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

If the descentralization of social networks continue, we will have to prepare for the eventual rise of the instances wars, where people will start to fight about which instance is better and which one is weird to be in and so on, but that's for the future of us all.

I get the sentiment and that is sarcasm and all, but this could still be hurtful to some people. Let's grow past dick size humor because I know that lemmings are better than that.

The way to get over something is to adapt, not avoid it.

It’s funny that dick size is a thing we care about. Some guys get big dicks, some get small ones, some guys let it define them, other guys don’t, some women admit they like big dicks, some don’t admit it, some actually don’t. Life is full of horror and it’s funny.

The more things you have to avoid the worse off you are.

Plus every time someone makes a dick size joke I think about randy marshs dick size formula. The time and effort he spend to make his dick be average size always cracks me up.

Like who cares about your dick size? Relatively few people get to see it anyways and if they judge you for it you're probably better of without them.

Humor police? No thank you…

I think there will eventually be a “safe space” subfederation for people with a fragile sense of humor. We can all coexist.

It's called beehaw, pretty much.
