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

Yeah, that's unnecessary. Let's start doing humans without that.

How about getting rid of the spontaneous embarrassment highlight reel in the first place? That would be great, thanks.

Reflecting on your mistakes lets you learn from them and not repeat them. Reducing the number of mistakes you make is good for survival. Sorry, this is a feature not a bug.

Yeah that's not the problem we're talking about, it's about still being presented with these 45 years later, with memories from a time when you were a stupid little kid.

Stupid brain.
