Showerthoughts

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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Keep yourself together now.
I have no hand in this game. I just see the basic facts. One of them is the invader. The other is the invaded. Regardless of what else is occurring, nothing has convinced me that the invaders were doing it out of goodness of their hearts. Being on Lemmy I've heard a lot from all sides. I'm not on anyone's side but I can tell you the invaders were the aggressor. You can paint whatever picture you want, but it'll always be one invaded the other.
You're like those hasbara snakes who starts counting from oct 7 you start counting from when Russia finally intervened.
Where were all those people when those nazis burnt 47 people alive bcs they protested the coup in Odessa in 2014?.
And somehow they missed the 8 years of ethnic cleansing and bombing of civilians too.
Typical western hypocrites with their selective indignation.
Bye now
The sad thing is that people think things like that warrants all out war. How many more people need to die in order to prevent people from dieing? It's a fallacy, and I don't believe for a second that this war is based on saving lives.
In case you don't get it, the ukro army bombing 35+ % of their civilians is worse than war.
So save your crocodile tears about "How many more people need to die" hypocrite.
You are a really stubid bot
Why are you trying to deflect onto Ukraine. I'm sure it's atrocities all round, that isn't the point. Russia invaded. Russia are the aggressor. Russia are the invaders. No argument there I imagine. I'm not a hypocrite as you are arguing an entirely different point in an attempt of whataboutism. Perhaps if Russia had not of invaded, all this would have been avoided no? Who knows what bright future we may have had without countries invading other countries like time of old. We will never learn, especially with people like yourself giving justification for their efforts.
You're repeating yourself bot, and deflectin from the guilty one, the US proxy nazis that started the violence. Perhaps if the US han't organised a fascist coup this could've been avoided.
or even if they kept their corrupt nazi state without the ukranians that didn't want to live under their regime without being ethnically cleansed this could've been avoided.
Or if they didn't continously break the Minsk accords this could've been avoided.
Now I'm blocking you, you have nothing of value to say bot, just clihé and distorted propaganda garbage.
