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

There should be a “shower thoughts mode” in the shower so after you clean yourself, the current water used in the shower is recycled and reheated. In this way you can keep shower thinking without (social.graves.cl)

This could be a variation on the traditional Japanese bath. The way that works is you fill up a tub and use this big ladle thing to pour water over yourself and wash up outside the bath. (The whole bathroom floor is tiled and has a drain in the middle.) Then, once clean, you can climb into the bath and warm up.

I remember thinking when I was in Japan that you could replace the ladle with some sort of pump that draws water out of the tub and runs it through a shower head. Then you can take a short regular shower before climbing into the bath. But now, if you cleaned up and then stepped into the bath with the shower head dumping into the tub, you would effectively have "shower thoughts mode" right?
