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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The force feeding of news and shit is fucking enraging! Why on earth did they start pushing that, and why is it so hard to turn off? Why do they turn it back on at every opportunity? I have a Surface Pro that I use for digital painting. I'll be happily just painting along when I misclick the system notification area and all of the sudden "Trump! Trump! Trump! Outrage! Doom! Gloom! Global catastrophe!" gets shoved in my face. I'll open a fucking browser if I want to see the news. Ugh! Fuck off! That's honestly a huge part of the reason I finally switched to Linux as my primary OS.
