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

"In the early 21st century, there was a genre of art where hands were drawn either with an incorrect number of fingers or other mutations. We believe this style of art was used for ritual purposes. Strangely, this movement of art lasted a very short period of time, from 2023 before gradually disappearing by around 2025"

EDIT for those who didn't get it, it's because some newer image generators draw better hands

In the future, kids will watch The Flintstones and laugh at the antennae TVs and landlines in Bedrock and think that the antiquated tech is the joke.
