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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
    • If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

I must say I use the phone a lot in the shower. I get bored really easily and I constantly need something to interest me. I watch youtube mostly. Stuff I dont need to touch the phone constantly cos wet finger doesnt work with the capacitive screen.

And for porn.

I have a MagSafe mount in the shower, so I can control Spotify while showering (oh and I also have a Bluetooth speaker in my shower).

I bring my phone into the shower. Not directly into the water stream, but in the shower room.

Phone is IP68 rated and I have a accidental damage protection plan. (I get the protection plan mainly for lost and theft, but it also covers accidental damage)

This reminds me, I want to make a diy speaker so I can listen to some music while showering.

Funnily enough I tend to have most of my "shower thoughts" while listening to music on the bus or train. In the shower I just try to relax and not really think about anything.

My favorite uncle has a tablet in both of his showers. They're in waterproof cases and work surprisingly well. 😂
