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-----

Rice ferments at a specific rate, and lower than hops. During Prohibition, this was used in lawmaking to stamp out smaller breweries as only the lower rate was allowed (no mention of how to do so; eg. rice) and thus only the corpo breweries with either the capital to reconfigure their production process or the machines already in place (yes, some already were, and had a direct hand in said lawmaking) survived the era.
Conclusion: Only fascists and idiots drink beaver piss.
