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
Yeah for sure, it's called motorsport...
If you think that’s a satisfactory replacement for the average person you don’t know much about motorsports. The costs alone are outside the reach of most people.
Yep, driving will probably eventually become just another thing most people can't enjoy...
I think that's a very long way off though, and will just be another symptom of unrestrained capitalism.
Only if we value safety and convenience over freedom.
Personally, I’ll take the freedom.
Me too, but people who don't need to learn to drive often don't realise how enjoyable it can be, and over time I think that number will gradually increase.
