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

The way they dealt with the 'rulers' in the mustard uprising in Europe come to mind.

Dan Carlin did a whole hours long pod cast on it.

*Münster uprising

I was extremely confused trying to remember if Dan did an episode about mustard. But yeah that ep was brutal and entertaining!

Oh... I... I just assumed it was spelt mustard. Figured the word is like 6000 years old...

Cheers.
