Showerthoughts

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-----

My parents never did any extravagant trips like to Disney world or Sea world. Knowing what I know now I'm kinda grateful for that. (lemmy.world)

Kids who go to those places end up clinically depressed later in life.

Because they understand the exploitation involved in a giant corporation controlling all aspects of life for profit and the shallowness of detached and alienated entertainment?
