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.

It sounds way less offensive to those who decry the original terminology's problematic roots but still keeps its meaning intact.

Tldr your novella of regressive FUD.

You can't get a perfect solution so you refuse to accept any solution is the Hallmark of the disingenuous redpill in disguise.

Go sell your snake oil elsewhere

Tldr your novella of regressive FUD.

my true TL;DR is that i think there are probably better and more apt things to focus on.

You can’t get a perfect solution so you refuse to accept any solution is the Hallmark of the disingenuous redpill in disguise.

i'm not asking for one, i'm just positing that i don't think this is the most optimal and productive way to go about solving our problems at the moment. I feel like we're stepping a little bit too far forward in the grand scheme of things with this one.

Also i like that you call me red pill, very funny. I'm way to nihilistic to be red pill but ok.

Go sell your snake oil elsewhere

unfortunately i'm fresh out of snake oil, i sold it all to smurf accounts (and it was laced with a carcinogen)

Still peddling FUD?

IDK, I didn't read it. Piss off with your disingenuous "no solution is good enough" anti-progressive bullshit

idk maybe you'll have to read it and find out. Maybe i should start writing furry smut in these posts though, you would probably read them then.
