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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning. Born below the ever cloud-capped peaks that gave the mountains their name, the wind blew east, out across the Sand Hills, once the shore of a great ocean, before the Breaking of the World.
I don't care what anyone says about the show I'm pumped to watch s2e6 tonight.
It's not the greatest but it's still decent fantasy TV. There's so much crap that I'm happy with decent 😂
I haven't gotten around to watching it yet!
It can be very disappointing if you've read the books.
I thought season 1 was okay. Weird Perrin had a wife.. don't know how that will play out later. Did they use matches at the beginning? I guess that plot is gone but it was minor enough I guess. Additional romance stuff was typical to gain a broader audience I suppose. Overall I was relatively happy. Much better than Sword of Truth's show adaptation.
Didn't know season 2 had started, is it further from the books?
They didn't have matches in the books prior to Mat traveling with the Illuminator who invented the cannons. She also invented the matches.
Seriously no one is going to give the title? Everyone just assuming everyone gets the reference?
Wheel of Time
Get around to it.
