If your dog realizes that your leather jacket is the skin of another animal then it probably thinks you're a psycho.

    Dogs like squeaky toys, because it simulates killing small animals. It doesn’t care if you kill other animals.

    My dog would wear a squirrel as a hat if we let him.

      If my dogs are any indication, they would wear a recently deceased squirrel as a coat, entrails and all, preferably dripping blood.

      My pup straight up skinned a squirrel a few weeks after we adopted her.

      Hey, it’s cool when the Orca do it with Salmon! Why do you want your dog to not be cool.

    I srsly doubt that animals put that much thought into such things, especially considering that most of them lick their own butts.

      You don’t think we’d lick our own butts if we could? We already lick others’ butts. It’s purely an access/availability issue.

        Alright that was a bad example. Animals don’t show signs of moralizing about killing other animals. At least my cats sure as hell don’t.

    It really is the clothes themselves that are strange. That they come from plants, animals, or minerals are largely unimportant, but canis lupus really doesn’t care what you kill.

      The weird thing about clothes is that we don’t think they are weird.

      Maybe not huskies not living in the snow. They would rather remove the one they already wear.

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.
