There is no history on the History channel. There's nothing true on TruTV. There's no music on music television. There's no science on the science channel.

    Discovery is full of shows all about people looking for things but not discovering them.

      Last time I watched anything like that, probably on netflix, they where looking for pirate gold and actually found it … buried in a military munitions burial area they couldn’t reasonably or legally excavate.

          Pirate Gold of Adak Island probably worth a watch even though I spoiled the ending

      If you think of Discovery like how Christopher Columbus “discovered” America, it does seem fitting. A bunch of bullshit that later lead to genocide and scorched earth. This seems fitting for what they’ve done to HBO and all the other IP they’ve gobbled up and destroyed.

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.
