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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I sort of wonder whether the dropping birthrates are the last form of 'protest' we have left. It's not a real protest but simply neoliberal capitalism's consequences coming home to roost.
Admittedly, by the time it matters, powerful people can probably be made to live forever in some kind of Elysium style space station while the rabble fights over scraps, policed by autonomous robots.
