Please update your post so that the entire shower thought is in the title. Rule 2.

Thanks for the feedback

This pretty quickly became a well liked post with lots of interaction and is remaining mostly civil.

It’s hard to argue that this post doesn’t break the new rule for “avoid politics”.

Should this post stay?

How do people here feel about the “avoid politics” rule? Should it be rewritten in some way to allow this post?

I’m sure Netanyahu also wants it to end right after he gets his sadistic goals.

As of mid 2024 the lowest estimate I found was >7000 Palestinian children dead, as compared to a highest estimate of <100 Israeli children dead. Any child dead is too many but it shows that this is not a war, it’s a slaughter.

I voted for Harris because any alternative is asinine, but we should expect that the arms shipments to Israel will continue unless we pressure our politicians.

Stolen British Museum-ed

This was reported for breaking rule 1,4,5.

1 The votes seem to agree that it’s not a shower thought. I’m slow to remove a post for this rule, I would rather let the votes do the work.

4 I’m not sure saying this about Putin is saying anything about any people group. You can be hugely supportive of people groups while thinking their leaders are responsible for, or capable of, horrible things. At various times nearly every country could be used as an example of this.

5 I’m not sure what community rule it’s breaking. It’s not a very positive post but people should be free to be negative online if they that’s how they feel. Lord knows that many comment threads are negative. I may feel differently if the the majority of posts suddenly became negative.

As always I’m open to feedback.

This post was reported for breaking community rules. Its not obvious to me what rules would be broken. dm me if you feel strongly about it and would like to clarify.

You pushed it to OsmAnd? Thank you!

This post was reported for being a news article not a shower thought. Also it seems like several of the comments are concerned that it is political.

There isn’t a rule against posting a link. The article does seem relevant and OP’s thought isn’t taken from the article, it seems unique, like something you might think of in the shower after reading the article.

There isn’t a rule against political posts. Many posts have some component of politics to them.

Thank you all for being civil with each other. Thank you all for commenting and reporting when think something is pushing the limits on what should be considered a “shower thought”, it’s an abstract concept, so social pressure is helpful in shaping the community. I try to error on the side of being permissive.

As always, I am open to feedback.

Edit: spelling, ironically

This comment was reported. I’m not seeing any issue but the reporter can dm me and point it out if I’m missing something.

His audio tours are amazing, and free!

Thank you! And thank you for being a part of this community!

This post was reported. I think the objection would be to the second paragraph where it sounds like you are making a claim about the character of the person.

We want this to be an inviting place where people can share what they are passionate about. Everyone is free to attack each other’s opinions and stances. However, there are rules against attacking individuals and groups of people.

Not only is it against the rules but there are much more effective methods of arguing. Ad hominem attacks are poor at persuasion.

Do you mind rewriting the second paragraph to focus on the arguments made in the prior comment, rather than the character of the person?

This comment got reported. And while trolling is not allowed. Attacking an individual is also not allowed. So I’m not sure if attacking them for being a troll is allowed.

If you think a post is trolling (ie: just trying to stir up anger rather than trying to make an argument for something), please report it. If you think a poster is serial trolling please point it out in the report.

I’m open to feedback.

This post was reported for disinformation. To me this post reads like an opinion and hyperbole.

If we do assume that the post is making a factual claim; I’m not a lawyer and I don’t know if voting has ever been used to claim that someone is complicit in a crime. Im open to being pointed to evidence.

I like ground being 0. That way you have a continuous number line from basement to the top:

-2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

Is this just a title and a picture? Am I missing the details somewhere?

Up voted, because I don’t agree. I have the 2023 power or whatever it’s called with the big battery.

• the double chop and twist are so fast
• wired headphones are lovely
• the battery life is the best I have had
• when you want a nice picture you can borrow an iphone 😅
