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-----

I was just thinking that you could loosely look at each day being the four seasons. Morning is spring, afternoon is summer, evening is fall, and night is winter.

EDIT: Seems a lot of people are having difficulty understanding a loose comparison.

Except here, it's just summer all around the clock

Early morning is winter, midday is spring, late evening to midnight is fall. There's a lag time between the times of day and temperature just like there is with the solstices. Gotta overcome the heat capacity.

I like the loose compression very much. Up vote for you!

You've never been to Texas. It's still 90°F at midnight. It never cools down.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

What do you mean that is cooled down.

Can someone explain why this is being downvoted?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Nope. Humanity will always be an enigma.

Ah yes, winter, when i walk around in mt shorts and shirt and it's still too humid and warm to exist

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's a pretty cool way of thinking about it
