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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Dog body temp is ~101-102.5 F (some go as low as 99.5 F). If your dog is 10 degrees hotter than you, you either have hypothermia or they have a severe fever.
We may be perceived as a little cooler than them but probably not "cold".
For anyone else reading this that also doesn't know F to C conversion like me...
101F = 38.33333C
Repeating, of course.
To infinity and beyond!
101F = 38.33333C101F = 38.33333C101F = 38.33333C101F = 38.33333C
Oh dog, they meant Fathrenheits! I was thinking 10 degrees Celsius hotter, which sounded even more insane (that's 18°F if my math is correct).
Message to dear Americans: If you insists on using your freedom units, can you at least mark them properly? We have no way of knowing where you are from.
They're dead 10 degrees hotter. That's not even a high temp, that's way past bringing them to the vet even
