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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

North Carolina once outlawed State officials mentioning or acknowledging climate change exists, to the detriment of their own coastal cities. We could also discuss bathrooms if you want. I think NC ought not be pointing fingers about who is better.
North Carolina is only the way it is because of ridiculous gerrymandering so perhaps we shouldn't be negative and discouraging of people who want it to be better
While true there are some groups people and politicians are trying to make it be better and change things like that. I can't think of anyone in SC that is doing that (though I admit I don't keep up with their politics outside broad nationwide headlines)
Well I DID add "or at least the least awful one". I know that NC is far from perfect, with some instances of truly horrid policies, but compared to SC it's almost downright progressive lol
