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
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 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-----

Long ago when I had free time to read, I read a boom with a very similar plot. The aliens were soft and balloon like and couldn't fight but they had amazing technologies. They took the world's best special forces and went to go fight the war
During the trip to the Area of Operations, the humans hacked the aliens computers. It was easy because the aliens thought humans were stupid. Like you wouldn't put a very complex lock on a monkeys cage right?
The humans discovered the target was actually a peaceful race that had tons of resources the balloon aliens wanted.
Cannot remember the title, but thanks for reminding me of the slightly less shitty portion of my life. Peace.
