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-----

It's likely someone born in Kiribati on Jan 1st in the year 2000. Given the small population of the island, it probably isn't even too hard to find out.
Only if someone was born in Kiribati in the first hour of Jan 1. According to Google in 2000 its population was only 89000 and its birth rate was 31 per 1000 people per year. That gives an average of one person being born every 3.18 hours. I'm not sure what the population of the countries in GMT+13 is, but I think they're also a likely candidate.
Thing is these generation labels are not as common outside the US. I doubt they know or care.
