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
More of an !unpopularopinion@lemmy.world than a showerthought.
Also, you're very wrong.
Ads can be blocked, captchas are required to access certain contents, and some are absurdly annoying if they detect you are using a vpn or tor.
But captchas at least have purpose other filling my brain with bullshit.
And yes, ads can be blocked but a block ad is just ... not there. So of course a captacha is more annoying than not seeing an ad. But that wasn't the question. I'd rather solve captchas for 5 minues than watch a single 30 second ad.
