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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

What's up, my moist!
i think that might get HRs attention
Damn, moist. That's damp.
How about a "moist colleague"?
Where's the "funny" part?
Comrade
You seem very easily amused.
Oh my god, they're colleagues...
This post was reported for being offensive. Its hard to know what is offensive to all groups of people. "Colleague" is a pretty innocuous term and "twink" seems to be context dependent. It doesn't seem obviously derogatory in this context, "you see some dude" feels similar. I won't take action for now. I'm very open to feedback, being wrong, and learning. Thanks all.
I don’t think it’s offensive. It just seems to be a bad shower thought. OP shouldn't feel bad for having it but should feel bad for sharing it.
Eh why should I feel bad for sharing it either? I shared it, ppl didn't like it, so they downvoted it. Ok ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I like your attitude. IDGAF what dumb shit I post when super high or drunk either.
Is that your weird minimizing way of saying you reported it, or did you somehow learn of a reporting?
I'm a mod, so the latter. I want the reporters to know they are heard, but also I tend to be slow to take action.
You mean by deleting old, totally innocuous posts like a week after they posted it? What rule I broke I don’t know. Don’t much feel “heard” as a user
Good luck with your sub
This is my first time being a mod. For example early on I would just remove any post that got a single report, but obviously that's not a good strategy.
There are also other mods including an automod.
If I'm reading your picture correctly it was only 6 days ago that your post got removed. I'm not even sure if I can undo a mod action but I'll look into it. Thanks for bringing it up.
Edit: I am having trouble finding the original context of the comment that got removed, finding out how to reverse it, or finding who removed it. It's possible it was me but I don't remember it. I have reached out to other mods for help.
