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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

But consider this
Counter-point
I've started ignoring random posts about it.
Its the equivalent of telling your little sibling about it and having to listen to them shout "I lost the game" for next 5 months. It gets old quick.
Now if I think about this post and comment later on my own, then sure I'll have lost the game.
Nah. The moment you even think of the game you've lost it, the only way to win is to die and hope there's no afterlife so you don't have to think about it.
