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

You grow up looking up to all the adults in your life for guidance, support and direction. Only to learn once you grow up for a few decades that most people in the world don't have a clue as to how to guide, support or give direction to anyone including themselves.

It's sad that there are millions of children right now that simply have to look to who their parents voted for to see how deeply flaw the beliefs they were taught are.

I hope the youths of tomorrow don't form a garage band. I hope they form militias.
