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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

I feel the same way, but I'm also bad at planning, so things fall apart really quickly.
I get lots of big ideas but then the players go right instead of left and I'm like ???? how could you do this to me

See this is what worries me. I feel like I would get frustrated a lot. I know I have control issues and I already don't like people that much and I worry I would just be irritated with everyone, lol.

The real trick, I've heard, is to give the illusion of choice but have every path where you wanted to go anyway.
