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

The most flattering thing someone can do is deem your work worthy of adding to, like building on a good foundation. What you're describing is detracting from someone else's efforts to divert their attention from creativity to bickering with you. If they manage to create something good out of it that's a credit to them and nothing but shame for you. I disagree with your take completely.
It isn't even a take. I'm not like teaching a seminar on it ffs
Have you ever watched a YouTube video that was a response to someone else's YouTube video? That's all I was thinking about, this entire economy of foul discourse. Is this a super serious shower thoughts comm?
