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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

The Earth is round to keep you from walking out of the simulator. If it was flat, there'd be a door or something.

They legit believe that the great Antarctic ice wall is constantly being patrolled to not let anyone find out about the flatness. But for some reason, the US-Mexico border is still doable for millions of people. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

E: Spoiler, the cruise never happened. I wonder why. ๐Ÿ˜‚
