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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

At first glance, yes. The rough parts of life can be smoothed out by drugs, such as very immersive games, social media, etc. But the issue here is that the drug dealer is way too efficient and powerful. Their goal is to keep you on that drug perpetually, which is why corpo media is a bad idea. I agree, immersing yourself to get a break from reality is valid though.
