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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
Y'all taking these showerthoughts way too seriously. It's just a dumb number coincidence that happens to really only work with a particular age group at the current point in time. In a few years it'll be different, and it isn't true for every single data point, but this isn't a philosophical revelation community.
The joke is I said 60s and 70s twice and it mostly works out.
And yea, I'm not relating it to your birth year, but the formative years. My mother is in her mid 60s, born near the end of the '50s, but the childhood years she remembers fondly are all in the '60s.
It's numbers man don't take it too seriously
