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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

As you move faster, in your vehicle, than the world around you, you age slower. This increases life spans.

I've been a trucker for many years. Not the fastest vehicle, but still relatively fast and a lot more hours on the road than the average person. I'm pretty sure that time rather shortened my life than extended it. All the sitting and the fastfood are not good for your general wellbeing. Also the fact that I grew to hate the job, was very detrimental.

Definitely Lifestyle and amount Spent sitting can affect this. Planes, boat and trains probably the best forms
