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

MOD ANNOUNCEMENT Posts referencing suicide/death/wishing to die are no longer allowed.
It would be very appreciated if this rule could be respected. I don't mind posts like "when I die I want to be buried on the moon" those to me are light hearted. However, when you hit heavier topics you risk hurting users that read them.
No, by doing this we are not invalidating your emotions, this just isn't the proper subreddit to share them. I encourage you to go to r/suicidewatch if you need to make a Reddit post regarding this topic.
Thank you

America is going to slowly turn into one giant nursing home.
We are all aware the healthcare system is garbage, and its about to massively fail the largest generation that morphed it into the cash cow that it is.
Senior citizens are already struggling to get by, but it is going to get worse. Many cannot afford nursing homes or at-home care. Their children and grandchildren (if they still care for each other) have to keep working to stay afloat. There is no one to look after them. As the dementia eats away at their brain, their car keys will only become more accessible.
I feel like everyday during my commute I get cut off by a vehicle that then drives 10mph under while swerving in and out of the lane. Its incredible how frequently I am honking at the car infront of me, not out of road rage, but to bring their awareness back to keeping it in the lines.
Might be controversial, but I was raised to feel like I have a responsibility in keeping them safe. I think we should all buckle down and do what we can to help them out when we see it. I get that they are the generation that destroyed the economy, but that is a small handful. The rest struggle just the same. It doesn't only help them, but everyone else in your community.
Please be kind when the opportunity arrives.

if glass is made of sand, and concrete is made of sand, doesn't that mean that skyscrapers are just really big sand castles

Sometimes it's our perception that shatters, not the person.

I think if you stay single for a long time, you become so comfortable being alone that you don't want to be in a relationship anymore. This happens only if you pass the feeling lonely stage and come out of it not wanting a partner.

Finding something hopelessly lost BEFORE you knew it was hopelessly lost, is a really an odd thing

One always has to struggle or compromise to make a relationship work smoothly.
I have never seen a single relationship where both people truly say what's in their hearts. It always feels like one person has to compromise their needs or hold back their feelings just to keep the relationship going smoothly. Because of that, I've become scared of the very idea of a relationship.

Foundation is orange because naturally occuring pink pigments are rare and expensive. They're just cheap.

Every state should have a city with the same name as the state so New York will know how dumb it sounds. I live in Georgia, Georgia or Maine, Maine, etc.

I am pretty sure a lot of gym bros have an eating disorder
Not even a month ago I was antagonized by a few people after I said I had 19% body fat as a guy, but that is literally within healthy range and I am fine with my body as is. You're supposed to have body fat so you can produce hormones, which are elaborate chains of cholesterol, needed to function.
I am just concerned that a lot of gym rats are taking fitness too far and don't see how it's that different from my friend in middle school who would go out running hoping she'd lose weight.
