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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

it's weird that we are prepared to die for democracy, yet willingly enter dictatorships daily for work and spend the majority of our waking lives with people we vaguely know (sh.itjust.works)

What job (aka enslavement apparently)do you have irl

[–] Sirsnuffles@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Factory worker.

Definitely not a rollform operator if that is the case. Machine builder?

So how would a factory line work without leadership lol

Voting for a leader democratically does not mean that there is no leader.

[–] Sirsnuffles@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I have my ideas.

What's your job?
