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.
Rules

Let's start to the Florida curriculum telling kids the good things about slavery and move on to objecting to giving schoolchildren free school lunches. Then there's the encouraging suicides of trans kids by taking away the one thing preventing that suicide. I can keep going if you like.
It is not. I've read the text myself. You're gaslighting.
Bullshit. Cite your sources.
Sure, as soon as you cite your sources and stop gaslighting.
Then quote it

Still waiting for that source...
Not that you're gonna listen to me but.... I grew up in Florida in the 90's. It was racist then and it's racist now.
It was homophobic then. And it's homophobic now.
Did you know that there are people moving out of Florida in DROVES and moving all the way across the US to live in Oregon instead??
