Showerthoughts

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-----

Had just clicked away and had to come back to let you know we call those pointless here.

(protip: if something is actually worth fake internet points give it a boost instead or as well)

A boost? I'm not familiar with what that is. That's not a Lemmy thing is it?

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

it's a fediverse thing. think of it like a re-tweet.

I sometimes forget Lemmy is a totally different place. Gave you a boost, let me know if it does anything there.
