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

MODERATORS
Have you seen music lyrics? They're full of advertisements.
People pride themselves to be walking billboards. I think it somewhat resembles wearing the coat of arms of your lord in the millennia before.
You’re probably talking about pop/rap? Because I’m pretty sure that there isn’t a single song in my music library that mentions products/brands.
I thought that about my music collection. Apart from one of the tracks on 'Selling England By The Pound' I don't think I have either ;-)
The band - Genesis. The track - 'Aisle of Plenty'. The year - 1973
Damn, I think I just remembered one too. There’s a certain Tool song…
Maynard's Dick?
This is quite an individualist mindset; I was mainly talking about YT Trends-type of music - music likely listened to by millions, shaping the minds of millions.
