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.

I hate to break this to you, but there's only 43 people on lemmy at all. We're all just pretending to be everyone, including you.

You aren't you at all, you're a constructed personality inside someone's mind with a lifetime of false memories and a thin veneer of "free will" to give you the illusion of being a real person.

And of those 43, 42 are just multiple rats sharing a trenchcoat.
