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 use shoes to recover previously forgotten thoughts. Just put your shoes on, tie them, and you’ll suddenly know what else you need to do you before you go. Then you’ll just your shoes off, do your things, grab some more stuff with you, imagine you’re ready to go. Then you’ll put your shoes on a second time, and the cycle repeats. Occasionally you also need to enhance the effect by walking out the door.
