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

This makes me sad. I just realized that I could be part of it but I spent most time away drinking, partying or playing vidya, and not caring

If you really feel like getting sentimental, check out this Wait But Why, specifically the “Relationships” section. There’s also this awesome Kurzgesagt video which was inspired by it.

Wow.. I feel sad thinking about this now.. we really don't have enough time.. it also makes me angry how we spend most of our waking life working like donkeys and end up sacrificing the most important things we love..

Don't forget about the time wasted on social media or other useless stuff on the internet.

Don’t watch that video if you have to focus on something else in the next hour. That shit fucked me up.
