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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

I open it in my browser and leave the tab open forever (because I will never come back to it).

I do this too, to a degree, but have you tried bookmarking in your browser more? I have and it's been pretty nice for maintaining this habit without having a tab perpetually open (I write as I have like 10+ tabs perpetually open that I swear I'll get back to eventually).

Honestly, I exaggerated for humor. Eventually I do get all my tabs closed, either by reading them (or whatever), or sometimes they don't interest me anymore. My tabs are basically a queue (a stack actually!) of things to do

Those are rookie numbers. I have 10+ windows.
