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:
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.
This is me, exactly. We're leaving the country in the next 6-8 months and can't justify selling it just to buy another car that we'll then sell soon after. In the meantime, I get shit for "being a nazi" despite being a leftist. Good times.
Honestly, I love the car. We haven't had any issues with it, it drives great, the features are nice, and the energy efficiency is top notch. I wish Elno would step down as CEO and/or die so we could take it with us, but I doubt he will.
Love my m3 in the us, but I am so glad when we moved that I bought a plug in hybrid instead. It's a piece of shit in comparison and crazy expensive, but it feels cleaner.
Now I just wish I bought a Volvo plug in hybrid.
Ditto for me for most things here. Fun fact also is that I was initially motivated to buy the car for environmental reasons and so that fascist Russia wouldn't benefit from me buying and burning gasoline.
I bought it used so technically Musk didn't get money from me. And by keeping and driving it, he keeps not getting money from me (unless something breaks that needs parts, I guess).
Great car, weird CEO. If his recent successes continue, perhaps he'll off himself or something. Or perhaps the shareholders will finally grow a spine and boot him instead of giving him billions.
I've actually been checking if the prices for used Tesla's have gone down enough. I've been itching for an EV for years. But other EVs are actually cheaper.
Saw some Peugeot 2008 for good prices.
My alternate non-Tesla badges are arriving next week.
Like badges actually trick anyone.....
Its two things: I don't want to show any support Tesla, and don't have the luxury of selling my car and buying a different one. Second, I think you might be surprised how many people really don't know what cars look like. Sure, "car people" will know, but most people aren't "car people".
