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
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

MODERATORS
I'm spending way more time online in general and on SM in particular, just not on one platform. I think it's because, in searching for something new, I've found all of these other places each with their unique culture, atmosphere, etiquette, and language. And each place is introducing me to new things (new search engines, browsers, streaming sites and apps, podcasts, RSS feeds to subscribe to, etc.) If I had stuck to Reddit, I just would've been doomscrolling instead of exploring what's out there.
