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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It's really nice here. I find everyone is pleasant to one another.
Strange, isn’t it? Takes some time to get used to.
Then, once you start to get used to it, you realize how screwed up reddit must have been for civility to seem strange.
I'm just so excited to have conversations again which aren't full of negativity. I didn't really see how toxic Reddit was until RIF closed down.
My first social media was Livejournal (I bet you're too young to know what that is), which was a private blogging platform, and it was full of really beautiful intimate friendships I maintain to this day 24 years later. I hope for similar vibes for Lemmy.
