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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

My user name on all my PC's(non root) is literally Master, my PC's are all Slave, slave1, slave2. I will fight to keep them that way. I am also extremely anti slavery for sentient creatures. Words matter in the context of their intent. Dumbing down of the language by forcing alternate uses of a word to mean something other than its obvious intended use is evidence of dilusional minds. Pure and simple, they don't deserve a seat at the table.
Weird hill to die on. Language changes. Some people think it's how new ideas are not only shared but how they're formed. You might be interested in Latin.
No one gives a shit what you call your PCs. They're not rounding up a posse to come and forcefully rename them. Just take a breath.
And while you're unbarricading the door the rest of the world will be moving on.

No. Di-lusional, opposite of mono-lusional.
Spelling is bulshit.

It's not their fault, they've all got the mispeling vyrus.
