Comment on I never understood what it was people did on Twitter. I understand it even less now that it is X.

  Isn’t any thought that originates under the shower a showerthought?

    No.

    From this communities sidebar:

    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.

    Rules

    1. All posts must be showerthoughts
    2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
    3. No politics

    This is borderline rule 3 violation because it’s just baiting people to shit on Twitter/X for political reasons - not that it doesn’t deserve it, but that’s not what this comm is for.

      But what if I hated Elon before he was involved in politics?

        That is allowed and respected.

        There are a million reasons to hate Musk besides political reasons

  I try to be objective where I can but all of the rules have gray area so I try to err on the side of not taking things down. Little nudges from the community, like your comment here, help to shape the community so thanks for being an engaged member!
