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

Like when the creator does their spiel for whatever sponsor.

Sometimes the creators do funny ways to introduce their sponsors, I really like that. For example donut, even if it's a fun skit they even place a progress bar on the bottom. It's the main reason I set sponsorblock to "notify, but don't skip the segment"

Other times instead it's the whole video to be secretly sponsored, like many unboxing channels. In that case sponsorblock should warn "error: no content found"

Harry Mack does freestyle raps about his sponsors. I think his bars about Keeps hair medication service and Nord VPN are just as entertaining as the rest of his stuff.
