    Mites role in consuming unwanted bacteria\fungi should be considered payment tendered.

        I remember a biology teacher said this about human folical mites… they’re symbiotic, they live off whatever naturally builds up on hair follicles, and a story of someone whom had a phobia and used a iodine wash to attempt to eradicate mites only to get a bad case of warts that took a long time to go away because the skin environment\biome was so sterile-like.

    At some point someone else’s face mites will become your genital mites.

    Then it’s not justifiable that they are not also allowed to vote.
    Are you really prepared for a mite-dominated democracy?

    Well, good luck with the forming of a tax authority and enforcing that.

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.
