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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
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
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Damn, glad you're with us
I decided to donate blood once. As an underfeed and idiot 18 year old this was probably the worse decision I could ever have made. I remember feeling proud of myself for not feeling squimish. Then suddenly I couldn't figure out why all of the sounds were gone and everything was getting dark. Thought it was funny that my peripheral vision was gone. Last thing I remember was a guy in a labcoat running over and putting an ice pack on my chest. Then nothing. Not even silence, just nothing
Suddenly I was awake and the nurse was yelling at me for lying to them about eating breakfast that morning. Idk what death is like, but if it's anything like that? Yea, I'm okay with that. It was peaceful
