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
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Those kids would be fine here. It's the "dumb" people that probably sit thru 5 minutes of Youtube ads or Twitch ads. It blows me away how many people put up with that stuff, and think it's normal.
I don't really think its even kids. I think its 'adults' that have only joined the internet since Facebook dragged them online via their phones in the mid 2010s.. The techy people are normally pretty chill. Old Reddit was full of nerds, and it was pretty nice
Im blaming cell phones for ruining the internet. It sure as fuck has hurt the gaming community
