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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Got one off Amazon for $35....wifey's like, "meh"....I say, "30 days, you'll wonder where it's been all your life!"....8 days later, wifey, "When I go at work, I wonder why they don't have..."
Bidet very good, but I still need a few squares to check. "Trust but verify."
Be thankful you're not blind...
As long as you're not both blind and anosmic, should be OK.

I'd argue, majority of places don't have those. Also I'm talking about the wiping process.
You can order one online for like $35 and install it yourself, it's a real game changer.
Not if you're negated to manual work plus having an ant size bathroom.
Naw buddy it's like an attachment onto your existing toilet. You can even get one with hot water for just a lil more if your toilet is close enough to the hot water inlet to the sink.
Some even do instant hot water without needing to be connected to the hot water line!
The size still a problem
It's a hose, how can the room size be a problem?
To be fair, I honestly don't know the size of your toilet, but I would be rather surprised if it's such a nonstandardized size that you couldn't find a cheap bidet to put on there.
That said, you seem opposed to the very concept of being able to mount a bidet so I think that's your biggest barrier to a cleaner anus.
It just goes on your toilet seat, it doesn't require much except connecting hoses.
Homie, I have a bathroom that is the literal T from Tetris. I got a bidet installed in mine ezmode.
So true
Did...did you say toilet paper?
He doesn't know how to use the three seashells!
Because "flushable" wipes really aren't and they are mode of plastic?
They felt like paper to me?
Because toilet paper can be flushed, but baby wipes should go in a garbage bin?
Flushable paper based wet wipes exist
Proof or gtfo; being labelled 'flushable' is not proof, they are lying

My roommate refuses to acknowledge that key difference. I just hope I’m out of the apartment before it becomes my problem.
Being in an apartment, good chance it gets to the building-wide plumbing before clogging, and so wouldn't be traced back to you. Of course, that would still leave you (and the rest of the building) without plumbing for a while whenever it actually does clog
bidet is the only green way
Some years back I was introduced to the CuloClean (https://culoclean.com/) - a side squirting cap that fits most any narrow plastic bottle, e.g. dish soap bottles. Super portable, I take it camping.
Until recently, baby wipes were largely non biodegradable
And they’re still non-flushable, despite what the package says.
Most baby wipes and similar materials aren’t designed to be flushed—“flushable” products like wipes do not readily disperse upon flushing and actually remain in a solid state while traveling through the sewer system. They may clog your pipes at home resulting in costly visits from your plumber. They may get caught in the public wastewater system, which can cause thousands of dollars worth of damage to regional pumping equipment leading to higher sewer bills for us all. While many of these products might masquerade as “flushable” and “sewer friendly”, don’t be fooled!
Mine disperse fine, don't trust big paper
This shit again? Pun intended. But JFC Lemmy is fucking obsessed with TP & bidets.
Mandatory PSA: Baby wipes clog up the plumbing system. Please don't flush those down a toilet. TP was designed to break down.

Read some history to discover methods used before we settled on toilet paper.
Spoiler: you're not gonna like it.
Leaves, animal stuff, the bucket, not doing anything.
