Please update your post so that the entire shower thought is in the title. Rule 2.
Thanks for the feedback. I would argue that determining what post counts as a shower thought (rule 1) is a lot harder than determining what posts are about politics.
This pretty quickly became a well liked post with lots of interaction and is remaining mostly civil.
It’s hard to argue that this post doesn’t break the new rule for “avoid politics”.
Should this post stay?
How do people here feel about the “avoid politics” rule? Should it be rewritten in some way to allow this post?
This was reported for being nonsense. There are rules against spamming, trolling, and other “attention stealing behavior”. Spamming would be the closest, but it’s not repetitive so I’ll leave it for now.
I’m not sure that it’s possible to move posts but that would be funny. Maybe c/powerthoughts
We can’t keep everyone happy. I’ll agree that this post gave me pause. I think it’s better to error on the side of leaving things up.
Please report the post if you think it violates rules, and please specify which rules and why.
I’m sure Netanyahu also wants it to end right after he gets his sadistic goals.
As of mid 2024 the lowest estimate I found was >7000 Palestinian children dead, as compared to a highest estimate of <100 Israeli children dead. Any child dead is too many but it shows that this is not a war, it’s a slaughter.
I voted for Harris because any alternative is asinine, but we should expect that the arms shipments to Israel will continue unless we pressure our politicians.

This was reported for breaking rule 1,4,5.
1 The votes seem to agree that it’s not a shower thought. I’m slow to remove a post for this rule, I would rather let the votes do the work.
4 I’m not sure saying this about Putin is saying anything about any people group. You can be hugely supportive of people groups while thinking their leaders are responsible for, or capable of, horrible things. At various times nearly every country could be used as an example of this.
5 I’m not sure what community rule it’s breaking. It’s not a very positive post but people should be free to be negative online if they that’s how they feel. Lord knows that many comment threads are negative. I may feel differently if the the majority of posts suddenly became negative.
As always I’m open to feedback.
That’s interesting, thank you. I didn’t know anything about Gujarati, this is a cool opportunity to learn!
Google translated it as “Nine days and seven days are tight”.
Does that sound like a good translation to you?
So when someone changes a light bulb, which direction to turn is just a feeling in their bones?
That’s fair.
The concept of a shower thought is annoyingly abstract, so I error on the side of leaving posts up, but maybe this is a good chance to get the perspectives of others:
This post was reported for breaking community rules. Its not obvious to me what rules would be broken. dm me if you feel strongly about it and would like to clarify.
This post was reported for being a news article not a shower thought. Also it seems like several of the comments are concerned that it is political.
There isn’t a rule against posting a link. The article does seem relevant and OP’s thought isn’t taken from the article, it seems unique, like something you might think of in the shower after reading the article.
There isn’t a rule against political posts. Many posts have some component of politics to them.
Thank you all for being civil with each other. Thank you all for commenting and reporting when think something is pushing the limits on what should be considered a “shower thought”, it’s an abstract concept, so social pressure is helpful in shaping the community. I try to error on the side of being permissive.
As always, I am open to feedback.
Edit: spelling, ironically
Sounds like an unpleasant shower… I’m sorry
Looks like the Alps in the background. Seems right.
