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

What do you mean with the cake thing in this context?
I beleive they mean you can't expect there to be content and also expect it to be fresh and new.
I think "have your cake and eat it too" is a little ill fitting but its the general gist of wanting something and then wanting it in another way which is not compatible with the first way.
