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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I wonder what fish and sharks think of whales and dolphins that have to surface to breath. I can totally see it "get out of here air breather, go hug the surface." (lemmy.ca)

I think you're misinterpreting, I meant dogs of different breeds bring chill with an unknown dog of their own breed, while trying to get rid of dogs of a completely different breed, even if those have lived in the same neighbourhood for years.

Horses of different breeds in the same stable still have a hard time trusting each other, but not with one of their own breed, even if that's a visitor.

And so forth.

TL;DR humans aren't the only racist animals

Its still territorial. Which is instinctive. It’s not hate.
