Showerthoughts

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

There are no cake days, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t try to make it Reddit. Let it be it’s own thing.

It is not Reddit, but Lemmy does show a cake next to the signing up date…

We have to incorporate beans somehow.

Beanday sounds like an upgrade

On Lemmy it is literally called cake day in your profile. Admittedly derivative, but I like cake so whatever.

Make it lemmy or rodent-related. Happy jump off a cliff day?

I’m not sure I want to be told “hey happy jump off a cliff day!”
