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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Dude... my kid will never get to experience this. I didn't even know this existed. Every other one of the links in here was waiting for me to hit play, too.
LOL! What app are you using to give such a warning?
Sync, it was my reddit client for years
What app are you using? The dev clearly knows their shit
This is just false, I don't know where you got this idea
You can't do either of those things on modern web browsers lol, what are you talking about?
