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

The fact that there's a lady out there named Stephanie who insisted the whole world call her Lady Gaga and we're all just like, "okay." (lemmy.world)

Artists be like that. Stage names have been a thing for quite some time.

Writers use pen names too. I'm kinda confused why OP even thinks this is notable?

Maybe they don't. They never even finished the sentence, so maybe they were going to say "...is incredibly mundane and unnoteworthy"

I'm a performer, people have literally worked under the assumption that my stage name is my legal name. It's not really surprising.
