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
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 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-----

I know this is probably a joke, but Crowns have been around for longer than Britain.
yeah I know, crowns have been there since prehistoric times. I guess it's just the easiest way to signify authority.
If you think in English, you've been mind-colonised before you're even self aware.
Did I colonize my own brain by immigrating to the US? 🤔
no choice, gotta adapt, am bilingual tho
What if I'm able to think in multiple languages
