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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Our brains exist in reality and the brain generates our thoughts, therefore can it not be said that thoughts exist in our reality, so to think of something that doesn't exist, will bring it into existence. What do you think fiction is? It doesn't exist, but when we write about it and think it up, it now exists. Imagine how many gods we forgot as time marches into the nonexistence we talk about. To bad they only existed when we need them.
