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

Ever since you were born the world is constantly changing, not just through big events but in smaller ways too.

The person you were born as no longer exists, at some point "you" died and you didn't notice.

Sadly, the truth is, humanity is doomed. Within just 10 years, it will all look much much less welcoming. Much of the equator will become uninhabitable within a few decades. Horror scenario. Do not have kids. EVER.

Good. Every single version of me deserves to die.

Let’s be real here. Everybody knows you die every time you go unconscious. We just pretend we don’t know that because otherwise who would want to go to sleep?
