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

Also a demonstration of the true backbone of social media: shitposters.

Unironically. Just look how shitposting pretty much keeps Tumblr alive these days

I'm on these platforms for the shitposts.

The cool/relevant/newsworthy information is just a handy little side bonus.

I mean lemmyshitposts on Lemmy.world is where I'm seeing the most but I'm new here and don't really know how to write that out.

Type a ! and then the name of the community for autocomplete. I'm not sure if it's implemented properly on all apps yet but that's generally the way. Gives you this: [email protected]
