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

Who said Lemmy is an adult only space? A huge federation of servers, which strives to be a replacement to Reddit, is open to anyone who wants to be here. So just saying "this is great because there are no young people here" (which I doubt btw) isn't enjoying an adult-only space, but… trying to restrict a general open space.
(And I'm not even sure I agree with the original statement for a fitting community tbh, I'm rather against such restrictions for spaces.)
