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

Im not big on chewing literal microplastics… I used to love chewing gum before I learned that though
Oh my! I thought it was made from some kind of tree sap! Apparently those do exist, but all of the ones you find in stores are platic based!
What. The. Fuck.
They try to hide it so well in the name.
Chewing plastic
I mean I'm 100% not above chewing literal plastic if I'm bored enough.
I'd actually prefer to chew plastic over gum. Not that I do, but I would.
I've got bad news, dude... Micro plastics are in everything.
