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 believe it’s caused by a primate infection. Well, we’ll see whether the immune system flushes them out.

That's a line and most of the plot from the first Kingsman movie.

I mean, it's not a fever. It's just sitting under a big pile of invisible blankets. Get rid of the blankets and things would be fine.

Depends of what blankets we are talking about. Removing the atmosphere would be unwise

We'd just get a new one made out of water vapor. I'm sure everything would be fine.
