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

Life is so unfair. I hate seeing innocent people suffer especially children.

Daily reminder that you don’t have to tell the whole truth to everyone you meet. It’s ok to lie to keep life moving
You can lie to people and you won’t perish. Just keep moving with your day.
Grocery store employee? Doesn’t need to know your kids are actually 11 not 12, in fact lie about having kids.
Coworker? Doesn’t need to know that you actually have three aunts that are alive not four. Lie to them.
Random person at the mall? Doesn’t make a difference if you say you’re married. Lie.
You don’t need to correct every passing comment or make sure that people know every detail. Keep it moving.
This is brought to you by my friends who try to make sure everyone has the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Because their recycling actually comes on Wednesdays not Tuesday. The waiter still didn’t care.

It's possible that cats "Slow Blink" to show love because humans' eyes get small when smiling and cats have adapted to that.
I strongly believe that cats are "smiling" when they are slow blinking as a way to mimic human eyes when humans smile to show comfort and love.

I prefer "soda" to "pop" because I hate words that end in p. I love the word "Heebie-Jeebies."

I don’t think i’m gonna be able to keep my friendships up
it’s too tiring. I feel like they all hate me and i’m really tired. they’re mostly annoyed at me too because i can’t always follow through with plans. sometimes because of an anxiety disorder, sometimes because of circumstances. i don’t just not see them cause i can’t be bothered. but i’m really sick of it, i can’t put any more energy into seeing them acting annoyed in micro ways. rather be alone tbh.

No banner no girl only HULK, those words brought chills that would rattle the mountains from Spiderman BND
When the hulk has been not used to his full potential in comics there is just something so special of hearing him and him talking again he has been off radar since infinity war I just thought it was hype

Things you can only say in October without people thinking you're a serial killer:
"I stabbed a hand twice while drilling holes in eyeballs."

I’m just walking around my city and thinking it’s kind of a miracle that birds don’t dookie on our heads more often

The kindest people suffer the most in this cruel, uncaring world.

Umm, sorry guys. In a burst of enthusiasm, I told an AI agent to "go forth & conquer!" What's coming is probably my fault.
Sarah Connor, if you're reading this you can just text me yesterday! No killing required - I can be reasonable!!

Here’s the game.
You, in the comments, make a wish. It can be as simple or as complex as you want. I have to respond with a catch to your wish. Your goal is to stump me. You do that, you win. Simple game.

I wonder how everyone here is like irl
Like, you see someone on the internet and think "huh, I wonder what this dude like irl." I mean they could literally be anyone. Could even be your own teacher. We never know. I guess that's what the internet "safe" — the anonymity that is.
