Wide open starfield shot. Deep space. Nothing is moving.

In the middle of the screen, but small in the distance, floats a transparent human form. It’s motionless, but looks relaxed. Asleep perhaps.

Suddenly all its limbs start thrashing wildly in frustration. This goes on for about twenty five seconds, then it’s still again.

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
