Showerthoughts
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: 1
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
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
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.
At the time of this comment, 3 down voters. Who are these people? Anti foie gras people to the point of it being even mentioned gets a down vote? Heavy drinkers that hate French food? Ducks or geese that have opposable thumbs?

Shills for big foie gras?
Could be worse, at least you're not suffering from self induced ortolan, AKA the dish so degenerate that it is eaten under a cloth "to hide from the eyes of god such overwhelming decadence."
TIL!
The ortolan is served in French cuisine, typically cooked and eaten whole. Traditionally diners cover their heads with their napkin or a towel while eating the delicacy. The bird is so widely used that its French populations dropped dangerously low, leading to laws restricting its use in 1999. In September 2007, the French government announced its intent to enforce long-ignored laws protecting the bird

I mean Foie Gras is literally fatty liver disease so, yes
Poor goose
Or duck 🦆 but yes. Damn near broke up with an ex of mine when she asked me if I would be bothered by her ordering foie gras, and then explained what it is.
