Judging by how many users on the internet telling Americans to "just move to another country lolz", people must think immigration laws are very lax or something... (it's not)

    I wonder if there is any point at which China starts to look more appealing…? I know that’s easy to say as someone with no experience in China, but we are speedrunning the dystopian shit here.

      Its funny how my mother has did some arranged marriage thing for my older brother and… basically I overheard some talks about visas and that he was going back to China for marriage or something (相親 is the term for it I think), and by marriage, I assume they’re gonna live in the US since all the family assets are here. Like they already exchanged WeChats… I have no idea how that’s gonna go, dude has no social skills, probably worse social skills than me lmfao.

        I have -99999 social credits at birth

        Reason: The crime of being the illegal 2nd child born in violation of the One Child Policy

        Punishment: You now must have at least 3 children to fix the declining population/birthrate

        PRC Government in a nutshell

        (/joke, idk if the social credit thing is actually real)

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.
