Showerthoughts

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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.

A lot of these rewards have small print that says that reward is for substantial information that leads to the arrest and CONVICTION of a suspect. The suspect has been arrested, but not yet convicted. Maybe they'll get their money at the end, if Luigi gets convicted, which I highly doubt.
Otherwise, people would just be turning in randos for the rewards. They have to be credible enough suspects that they can be convicted.
Given how much information they lost during DOGE's bullshit. I don't think they bothered to record who the person was or even cared. Also they have a notorious reputation of never paying people.
I swear if this guy is called Mario I'm going to lose my shit.
From the low res photos he seems like he might be hot. Two hot shooters in a row? IDK what this means for fall and spring shooting trends, but I like it.
Until Thomas Matthew Crooks I used to think that going by three names was the key element to being an assassin, but maybe it was being hot all along.
Maybe that's why Lee Harvey Oswald was killed. Not because somebody was upset he'd shot Kennedy, but out of jealousy he was going to be knee deep in clunge.
But why male models?
Roma traditoribus non praemiat
Rome doesn't pay traitors
No one ever gets those rewards, or if they do, it's a couple hundred dollars for all your time they wasted.
Doesn't help to snitch to the government.
I don't know about y'all, but I know for sure who shot Kirk. It was the old man that lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C.. He is constantly using violent rhetoric and threatening anyone not white. He's scaring the neighbors. That's the guy that did it.
Kirk probably wouldn't be dead right now if Trump wasn't elected, I fully believe that in some way or another
You know, I was actually like “Kirk who?” for a second.
May we all move on to “Kirk who?” that quickly.

I 100% assume that the McDonald's employee who called on him is fake in some way, and they tracked him down through some kind of spy apparatus shit and just don't want to give away their methods.
I have no evidence and I don't really know how these things work, it just seems way way more plausible to me.
That could be. I'm still vouching for the "conspiracy" that Luigi actually didn't do anything but was selected as a lookalike scapegoat. The similar looks is what prompted the McDonald employee to call, and they incompetently called the police instead of the tip line.

Ok, I'll accept this conspiracy theory and add to it:
It was actually the surveillance software in the AI drive through.
Welcome to McDonalds
Would you like to report any serious crimes today?

The method that totally wouldn’t have been used was to have a foreign ally in Five Eyes track all cell phones and correlate the information with security cameras. Then they share the intelligence with the US. Technically on the edge of legal but they know the shit storm if americans generally knew how surveilled they are. We literally would hand them all our related files, ask them to spot suspects, and hand us back the answer. The soaking version of surveillance.
Part of the point of the Snowden leaks was that they don't completely give a shit about those limitations. I'm sure the details vary in various parts of the apparatus, but as I understand it they don't even really bother with the fig leaf anymore (even as of that pretty long ago time at this point).

I KNOW WHO DID IT

Over the last 20 years for every $2000 in reward money offered by law enforcement in the United States, less than $4 has been paid.
or $1 per $500, or $2 per $1000. sorry, it was asking for fraction simplification
I'm sorry, you're saying that only $1.214521 of every $607.2605 was paid out?
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE
Finally someone spells it out in a way I can understand. That's outrageous now that it makes sense.

If you know who shot him, no you don't.
Yes I do, mr. treason with 34 felony convictions, currently illegally occupying the white house, did it
A lot of people are saying Trump sent the hit. Is it a joke or do you actually think he might've?
I think if you look at everything that his administration is doing, I definitely believe that they are trying to stir up enough shit to get people to lash out, and then they will declare martial law and then we will effectively have a new monarchy in the USA.
Do I really think that Trump would have someone killed just to change the national conversation? Of course he would, without any problem. However, I don't think Trump had him killed mostly because I don't think Trump is running the show. When I compare his first administration to his second, they are clearly not being run by the same people.
Trump is also obviously as bad off as Biden was at the end. He's a zombie puppet that gets dragged out for show.
Laura Loomer did say he stabbed Trump in the back like… two weeks ago or something
Not only that, but the embarrassment that was the birthday letter probably drove him to want to get attention off it as quickly as possible.
Also Trump is dying. He wants to cause as much hell as he can before he goes. The shitstorm this has done is really bad.
Its a half-joke.
Kinda like "Bush did 9/11", it's possible, nothing is really out of the realm of possibility, but sometimes life just happens, you talk shit too much for too long and someone will have a problem with you.

They won't. Trump has made a career out of stiffing the little guy, why would this time be any different?
No one will get paid any reward. Some corrupt official is going to pocket that money.

I think it was Herschel, the Cracker Barrel Cracker that got canceled and reborn in a matter of days. He shot Charlie Kirk b/c he got canceled. Btw, that crowd in Utah was so white that mayonnaise was labeled spicy at the food court on campus. Also this, if the mf’er didn’t want to get shot, why in thee hell did he go to a school that coincidentally rolled back their policies regarding weapons/firearms on campus? There is that.
Probably specifically to make a point about how it's safer when there are good guys with guns or whatever
He was right, there WAS a good guy with a gun.
And I do feel safer knowing there's one less whackjob propagandist out there... Maybe they were actually onto something and just didn't realize who the good guys were?
Of course not. We know how it is living in the trump times.
Like anyone can claim a reward for a false flag murder anyway.
Snitches can’t afford stitches due to duplicitous economic machinations.
