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

Most cultures stand out but American culture doesn't because basically everywhere has some sorta American influence.

I mostly think of guns and (some) god as american culture… oh and everyone wants to be famous

I sure as hell don't want to be famous. Fuck that noise.

Yeah that's all there is. Just that. Blues? Jazz? Naw. Rock and roll, Broadway plays, technology, blue jeans, Hollywood movies, orchestral music, theater? Pfft. No culture to see here, move along now. /s
