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-----

What world is it where robots do art while humans do the tedious manual labor?

A world where profits are put over people.

Well, I meant it more like "can you imagine how horrible such a world is?" Not just "can you imagine it?"

Because yeah, you barely need to imagine it at all

Oh no... I figured it out. Quark never left this timeline when he jumped back to Roswell! We are living in a universe where Quark secretly runs the world! It's the only explanation for this madness!
