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-----

While you are affected by gravity, it'd have less of an effect than other things.
For instance we can scientifically show your birth date does influence your personality, as long as you don't live on the equator.
The further North/South you go, the more pronounced the effect becomes.
That is to say that from large samplings, you can see that extroverted traits are more common with babies born in Spring (in the Northern hemisphere), while introversion is more associated with being born in autumn.
That ofc doesn't mean that a person who was born in November will automatically be less extroverted than one born in March, but if you pick two random people from those groups, it's X% more likely that it is so.
Astrology is complete fucking bullshit though.
I know. That's why I added the "/s" tag.
I was just pointing that out because me saying birth months can affect personality isn't me validating any aspect of astrology.
Just wanted to make sure no-one thinks I'm trying some feeble defense of it.
