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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

Nixon, Ford, Carter were 70's, not after the 70's. Reagan's VP was a Bush, wasn't it? Maybe they're also including the primary ballots to count Clinton in 2008? But I don't think she ran in 2012....

Oh yeah... no clue how I forgot about that. Guess I was specifically thinking about Clinton/Bush because they're the ones who've had multiple in the family on the ballot.
