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

I remember when I was in the last year before graduation that even people out of my own classes in my age were making fun of the new young kids coming to the school… I was completely shocked, and defended them very strongly. For now, I'm proud that I stand against this "the new youth is bad bla" (yes, every generation has had people being "like this" and had their own toys) and generational hate in general very consciously and I hope it will stay like this.
