MOD ANNOUNCEMENT It's happening! (Big) changes to RandomThoughts.

81 Upvotes

Alright, it’s time.

Starting July 32nd*, we’re making a big change:
- Questions go to r/RandomQuestions
- NSFW content goes to r/NSFWThoughts

They’ll no longer be allowed here in r/RandomThoughts.

This isn’t us trying to be overly strict or nitpicky. The reality is that questions and NSFW posts just don’t really fit the point of this subreddit. The whole idea of RandomThoughts is to capture those weird, passing, often pointless moments of brain activity. The stuff you think and immediately wonder why. A sentence without context. A vibe. An unexplainable truth about frogs.

When a bunch of posts start shifting into “hey what do you guys think about X?” or “here’s something NSFW I’ve been thinking about,” it pulls away from that vibe. It turns into a catch-all subreddit, and that’s not what this place is supposed to be.

We created r/RandomQuestions and r/NSFWThoughts specifically so that stuff has a better home. It’s not just about moving things away from here -- it’s about giving that kind of content a space where it actually works.

So yeah. Big change. Not a test run. Posts that are questions or NSFW will be removed after the launch date. We’ll try to be nice about it, but we’re going to be consistent.

As always, let us know what you think. Comments are open, we’re listening, and we appreciate everyone who helps keep this place just the right amount of chaotic.

\ Or August 1st, whichever happens first.)

Siblings may share DNA, but they really weren't raised by the same people. The oldest child was raised by people who had never had a kid before. The middle child was raised by parents with some experience. The youngest was raised by parents who were exhausted and distracted by the other two.

While scrolling last night rememberd out of nowhere a friend of mine and a convo we had. It's crazy how something you said years ago could still mean everything to someone while you don't even remember saying it.

Literally any problem ever can be solved with either duct tape, Vaseline, Super Glue, Zipties, and/or Dr. Bronner's.

Before smartphones, I used to be able to read a boring part of a book hoping it would get better, or watch a boring episode of a tv show, hoping it picks up.

Now I just pick up my phone and scroll.

Billionaire - do they use password manager

• Upvotes

I wonder, do billionaires use password manager. Like do they remember the master password and then log in to their financials using that or do they give it to their personal assistance to manage that..

I wish I could have a mentor in real life.

• Upvotes

Maybe I’ve been watching way too much anime but I wish that I could have a mentor like they do in fiction. I’m currently at a very very low point in my life and have been struggling to improve on my own. If it is possible to gain a mentor like that then please share the method with me.

I was never into music & dancing as a form of expression. I was also a very suppressed and ostracized person/kid. It dawned on me that the two could be interconnected. I grew up in a very regulated environment where society never celebrated me outside of sports.

Once you believe something to be true, nothing will change you until you believe it's not the total truth or it's untrue.

A big, fat, juicy hamburger is way better than a thin, crusty, salty smash burger.

Holding your poop in when it tries to force its way out is like pressing snooze on the phone.
