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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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 is no history on the History channel. There's nothing true on TruTV. There's no music on music television. There's no science on the science channel. (self.showerthoughts)

Only temporarily which is why nobody has cable anymore.

Cable was only good when broadcast TV was the alternative. Today it’s entirely obsolete

This reminds me of people who still cling onto the radio for music when there are objectively better alternatives.
