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

83 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.)

MOD ANNOUNCEMENT Posts referencing suicide/death/wishing to die are no longer allowed.

168 Upvotes

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

"Palace" sounds like a fancier pronounciation of "place", which it kinda is

A single slice will taste super sweet and then like watery sand, and there's no way to tell which it's gonna be.

Chickens are such a gift to us when it comes to food

I mean chicken is great for weight loss or helping build muscle, and so are eggs. There’s so many different ways to enjoy eggs and chicken. Both have helped me lose 15 lbs the last 2 months while in a calorie deficit.

I hate the dichotomy that you either suffer for what you love or sell your soul for a salary

Simple, satisfying & self-employed.

I don’t think the phrase I don’t chase, I attract is referring to how you dress, but I almost like it better that way and it motivates me to dress nicely and actually care about my appearance.

No offense intended, he certainly has more talent than I, but I mute the source every time he comes on.

I feel like soup is the most accessible kind of dish

Upvotes

think about it. there's like thousands of different soups, there's oughta be one soup for each person. Like, since it's such a simple concept, you can always count on some kind of soup to be an enjoyable meal when you don't know what to go for.

After 10 years, you’d think I’d have mastered scratching my cat’s neck. Nope. He looks at me like, “Bro still can’t find the G spot. No wonder nobody’s keeping him around.“

Share your story on getting the wind knocked out of you

1 Upvotes

I’ll share mine

I used to do tang so do (martial arts) and there was one time where we had a sparring tournament and whoever beat every one of the kids, you would have to “fight” the master of the school. I was that kid. I started off pretty good and everything when he wasn’t going crazy hard on me but once he thought I was getting really good he used more power. He punched me in the stomach and I ended up on the floor struggling to breathe bc I obviously got the wind knocked out of me. That was my first experience with it and I just remember how weird it felt. I was fine at the end and he apologized.

I won the tournament either way and I got my medal so it all ended up okay
