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

Can I get pie? Besides, Reddit does cake. Let's pick a different dessert.

What else do you eat on birthdays?

Candles, I guess.

You eat what you want. Because it's your birthday. Birthday pie is amazing.

Hmm, there's an idea...

Birthday antacid tablets and vitamin gummies...

How about 'dessert day'

It's in the theme of decentralization, since everyone can have whatever they want. Don't like sweet things? Desserts don't even have to be sweet

Yeah I always have a few anchovies for dessert

I know some cultures do fancy cheeses or breads, or something like yogurt

[–] SpaceNoodle 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cheese, sourdough bread, and yoghurt are all cultured, yes.
