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

I think the even deeper cruxxity crux of it all is whether a person is willing to handle their own content filtering, which requires themselves to expose themselves to content they don’t want as they evaluate content, or whether they want to be completely protected by some external system which makes those decisions for them.
In the first people must encounter shit they don’t like. In the second they don’t need to, but the system can make them blind to content that might be good for them.
